The problem is getting the agreement drafted to meet our approval. Councilman Leary Inquired how much money was the City putting into the project. Administrator Wurl advised 34% - $522,000. Leary remarked the City was getting $493,000 less than the specs called for. Wurl advised what the City had asked for was the very best in several areas and this re- duction did not minimize or impact the cap- acity or operation of the plant at all. Leary disagreed stated that the letter said "the elimination of some of the appurtenances which were intended for readily accommo- dating future expansions," etc. Administrator Wurl cited the electrical at the present wastewater plant is in dire need of repair and have everything in place along with the expansion. Further stated that the bond issue money is to replace items, but nothing to do with the additional capacity. This will solve problems at the existing plant and still provide items that will be bene- ficial in the future. Mayor Meier Remarked that before plans for the expansion were proposed the existing plant was within 70% to 80% of capacity, and the Health Dept. would have notified us that a proposal for expansion would have to be considered before the development was considered. Wurl advised that the City was at 70%, but the figure was 80%-90% before the Health Dept. would advise us.
