Councilman Sliter reported to Mayor Bjorneby and councilmen on a meeting held with
City Attorney. Donahue and Bill Osborne of Liberty Drilling Co., regarding the well
drilled in Woodland Park. The original contract for about $15,000.00 was based on
about 10 or 12 bid items. If a contract change is over 10%, a written change order,
properly approved, is required. Basically what happened was that as they drilled
down to a certain level, there was good evidence that they would have an artesian
situation if they would go deeper. This would require an extension of the screen.
After discussion and an exchange of letters between Mr. Osborne and former City
Engineer Lauder regarding the substitution of screen for pipe and the type of
screen, a verbal agreement was made to drill deeper. The need for a pump would
be eliminated. Also, if there had been a pump, there would have had to be a pump
house which was not included in the contract. The present artesian well provides
a flow of 1000 gallons per minute. The original contract with pump would have
provided 300 to 400 gallons per minute. City Attorney Donahue felt the agreement
should have been covered by a change order and that a change order should still be
made and added to the contract. Councilman Slater and City Attorney Donahue
recommended the bill be paid.
Mayor Bjorneby questioned the need for two valves and requested that further
Investigation be done by members of the park committee.
