appropriated the money. It is now ready to go out to bid on the 19th.
Komelis stated that the Corps permit to allow the fill at the turnaround has not yet
been completed and they may have to do the fill later. He stated that there will be a
boardwalk to allow access to the dunes and a stairway is planned at Forest Park to
access the beach. Commissioner Jahrig stated that if it goes over budget, then the
stairs at Forest should be the first thing deleted. Councilman Bookey stated that
Council was concerned about going over budget and would probably cut the stairs
first. Komelis stated that the project is supposed to be completed by May 1.
Additional Floats - Commissioner Jahrig stated that he spoke with Wayne Freaden and
felt it would be a good idea to use the added floats for the extra tie-up space.
Komelis reported that Council has already had the first reading and they should be
able to appropriate the money for the floats at their next meeting. Councilman
Bookey stated that Council would need a good breakdown and use statement for the
floats. He stated that Council would also need to know the cost of the flotation logs
and shipping. Commissioner Jahrig stated that these could be added in stages as the
funds became available.
Komelis stated that he had gotten a bid for filling the pilings with concrete at
$10,000. Commissioner McCune felt it would be nice to have the additional floats,
but questioned the need for them. Commissioner Jahrig stated it would help with
staging the boats.
Commissioner McCubbins MOVED to approve the ordinance and the purchase of the
three floats. Commissioner Spracher SECONDED the motion. The motion passed
with four yes votes and McCune voting no.
6. NEW BUSINESS
Commissioner Jahrig suggested adding the RFP issue to the agenda for the next meeting.
Commissioner McCune asked if the Commission is going to readdress the Snug Harbor lease
issue. Komelis stated that Council approved the lease contract but that the Commission
would need to address the lease and the crane lease which come due in the spring. He stated
the Commission will need to make a recommendation to Council on how the leases should be
handled. He felt this could easily be done in January.
