Amy Stuckleburg, Northland Securities, addressed the City Council. Braid: Commented that the Bond Sale occurring before the opening of bids on 21/13 is counter- intuitive to him, however; after reading the staff report it does explain that the City needs to pay the County it’s cost share within the 30 days. So it makes the optimal process not an option in this case because this is a County run Project at 21/13 with State and Federal Funding Require- ments. Braid also has concerns with the projects unforseens and so he is comfortable with leav- ing the not to exceed amount the same, as staff as suggested so they can investigate the en- crypted radios. Thompson: Agreed with staffs recommendation. Briggs: Added that he would support the motion as staff recommends. On the encrypted radios he had a couple of thoughts as far as need and timing and where the costs will potentially go on those radios in the next two years. Briggs applauded staff for recommending a delayed pur- chase on the encrypted radios, as the cost could come down or the technology may shift over the next two years. Erickson: Asked staff if the Council needed to specify in their motion that approval does not in- clude the purchase of the encrypted radios. Director Erickson: Explained that as long as the Council gave direction that to not include the encrypted radios they will not include it at the time of Sale.
