Present were Chairman Nystul, Councilman Ruiz, Mayor McDowell and Clerk Giermann, 1. BURSTER. The Clerk reported that the Water Department was welding a part for the burster. She thought we could get along with it until a decision was made on a new computer. 2. COMPUTER, The Clerk reported that her office would be starting on specifications for a new computer system in the near future. 3. TELEPHONE. It was agreed that the Mayor would contact Northwestern Telephone Systems, Inc. to determine what may be our options on the telephone system. As soon as the company learns from the PSC and lets him know, he will advise the committee. 4. HOWARD STOCKWELL. As requested by the committee, the surveyor has reviewed the lot of Howard Stockwell on Fifth Avenue W. N. He has been charged for 570 sq. ft. on City Specials for land that is used as West Colorado Street. Although he has the deed, the space is in the street. The committee agreed that he should be refunded for the overcharge for both 1981 and 1982. S. HENRY & MARY WIERSMA. As requested by the committee, the surveyor has also reviewed a parcel of land owned by Henry and Mary Wiersma. It is located across Ashley Creek from the City, As the creek runs between the property and the City, the committee agreed that the City Specials should not apply to this property, 6. LUTHERAN HOME GARBAGE. The Clerk asked about charges for the garbage collection at the Lutheran Home- They require 7 day collection and must change to a private hauler, The correct procedure is to bill them for that portion of 1983 for which service was received, 7. SUMMIT RIDGE. When Summit Ridge was annexed to the City, the legal description and the plat did not agree, fit was the intent of the Council at that time to not annex a small tract in the northeast part of the parcel. However, because of the legal description, the County placed it in the City. Because this error causes problems with the City Specials and because the City Attorney has drafted a correcting ordinance. The Annexation Committee will be requested to take action on this pending item, 8. PHOTO COPIER. The Clerk has solicited proposals from several firms for a replacement photo copier for City Hall, The City of Missoula recently went through such a process and came up with some evaluation sheets. The Clerk will prepare evaluation sheets for the vendors to fill out so that reasonable comparisons of cost and features may be made. -1- 9. GARBAGE.
