PROVING A BUDGET AMENDMENT (RDA 98-1)
TO ADD $248,000 IN STATE GRANT PROCEEDS Discussion followed: Boardmember Yee stated he
TO THE 1997-98 DOWNTOWN CENTRAL REDE- was not dear on Boething for they did bid, but did
VELOPMENT BUDGET not submit a bid bond, so you can not consider that
so what happened to the second bid; there were only
two bids and Valley only had two of the species, so
there is no conflict by not being able to guarantee
the trees so that was why they didn't have the bid
bond; Boardmember Yee questioned if staff was
going into negotiations for they have no obligation,
for they did not submit anything; that is true and it
is important to negotiate for the budgeted amount;
Boardmember Yee suggested not negotiating the
trees with any supplier, otherwise if they can't
perform staff has to come back to the Agency; the
original estimate was a little over one million four
for the engineer's estimate; Boardmember Yee stated
the staff report recommends that the Agency ap-
prove the Boething resolution, yet he only sees one
resolution; Counsel Mattas stated the staff report in
earlier drafts came through this way, however, this
is a typo and there is only one resolution; he will
make changes to the resolution that he will read into
the record to accomplish the Agency's goals; "A
resolution approving contracts with Satterfield and
Valley Crest Tree and authorizing the Executive
Director to prepare and execute a contract for the
purchase of magnolia trees not to exceed
$13 l, 155.52 and approving a budget amendment of
$248,000 for FY 1997-98".
M/S Yee/Datzman - To adopt the Resolution with
