Agenda Item No. 3. Award Bid -- Commercial Grade Outfront Mower.
Mike Baker, Parks Director, has authored a memo discussing the
recent call for bids for a commercial grade outfront mower for
the City Parks Department. Parsons Tractor (Kubota) was the
lowest responsive bid and Mike recommends awarding the bid to
I:\wp\agendamemo -I-
Parsons in the amount of $20,032.00. A motion approving the
award and authorizing a contract with Parsons is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 4. Request by Flathead Industries to Sell Real
Property.
In 1981, one of the City's first Urban Renewal Programs
involved the CDBG funding of housing for developmentally
disabled clients of Flathead Industries. Three houses were
acquired and rehabilitated and turned into nine apartments.
One of the conditions imposed prohibited the use of the
property for other than handicapped individuals. Another
allowed the sale of the property, only after City approval.
Flathead Industries has recently purchased three dilapidated
structures on Stn Avenue West and intend to construct a one
story apartment building on the property. Flathead Industries
needs to sell the original CDBG property to finance the
apartment complex. Susan Moyer has determined, so long as the
proceeds of the sale of the CDBG property are used to provide
affordable housing to developmentally disabled persons, the
sale should not trigger the reverter clause in the deed. A
motion by the Council authorizing a deed removing the
conditions imposed on the CDBG property will enable the
project to proceed.
Agenda Item No. 5. Authorization to Sign Commercial Loan
Agreement
Over the past two years the City has given all core area banks
the opportunity to participate in the City's 3% loan program.
The contracts previously executed are about ready to expire
and we need to execute new agreements. Susan Moyer has
informed me that the interest rate on the loans has been
reduced from 91,%to 91-4%. The City writes the interest down to
3% under its agreement with the banks. We have included in
your packet a copy of last year's agreement for your
information. The agreements to be signed will be identical to
the copy with the interest rate changed to reflect the 91-4%. A
motion authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement
with core area banks is appropriate.
Agenda Item No. 6. Ordinance No. 1295 -- Adoption of Kalispell
City Codes — First Reading.
At a recent Council Meeting the Council discussed adopting the
revised Kalispell City Codes by Ordinance. This office has
prepared an Ordinance adopting the revision for your approval.
At the recent League Convention, I discussed indexing the
Ordinance with a representative of Sterling Codifiers.
I:\wp\agendamemo -2-
Sterling quoted a price of $1,000.00 to index the code. If the
Council desires we will send the completed code to Sterling
and have them index the code. We will also get price quotes on
furnishing the code on disk and paper copies and report back.
A motion to adopt Ordinance No. 1295 is in order.
Agenda Item No. 7. Center Street Plaza Agreement.
Included in your packet is an agreement with CMA, L.L.P. for
your examination. The agreement concerns a grant of
approximately $16,000.00 and a loan of $75,500 to CMA for
development of the Center Street Plaza complex. The Council
by consensus approved the concept at a workshop in September.
The document in the packet memorializes the agreement between
the parties and establishes the respective rights and duties
of the parties. Brad Walterskirchen, a principal in the
partnership, has reviewed and approved the Agreement. A motion
to authorize the City Manager to execute the document is in
order.
Agenda Item No. 8. Questions and Comments from the Council.
