Sisk stated that Marshall Lake is the subject of significant litigation later this year. It is his understanding that the City of Lafayette is one of the parties opposing Louisville's use of Marshall Lake. Phare: They're objectors in the case to make sure their water rights are not impacted. Sisk wondered if there would be any guarantee, if Louisville buys the shares of stock from Lafayette, that they won't object. Phare: No. The decision to go forward with the option is a separate decision that can be made at most anytime within the terms of the agreement by counsel. Howard wondered if legally the City would be able to have as a condition that Lafayette would not intervene in those shares that they convey to Louisville. Lathrop was concerned with the Northern Colorado pipeline, how it would affect the value of future shares of Marshall Lake that would go on the market. Mayer moved that Council approve the Louisville/Lafayette Water Agreement with Lafayette's language for the Marshall Lake Shares. Davidson offered a friendly amendment that the City would approve it with or without the Marshall Lake shares. Mayer accepted that. Lathrop seconded. Motion passed by a 7 - 0 vote. Roll call was taken. APPROVAL OF BID AWARD - LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE CONTRACT Keany was concerned that the bids received were so $36,691.72, $59,360.00, and $218,318.00. He wondered bidders understood fully what they were bidding on. varied: if the Steve Baysinger, Parks & Recreation Director, couldn't explain the differentiation, but the low bidder, L & M Enterprises, Inc., bid the job last year, so they are very familiar with the job. He felt comfortable with them and satisfied with the job they had done. Howard moved that Council award the bid award and authorize the Mayor to sign the landscape maintenance contract with L & M Enterprises, Inc. for $36,691.72. Seconded by Mayer. Roll call was taken. Motion passed by a 7 - 0 vote. 13
