Councilmemher Dietz stated that no payments from the bond can be made for the public safety-building project after November 9, 2004 and so all payments would have to be taken out of the general fund. Mr. Dietz stated that last week Gary Lore had provided Kraus Anderson with a list of the items that still need to be completed and at this time half or more of the items are done. 1v1.r. Lore will continue to work with Kraus-Anderson until these issues are resolved. It was felt that the only leverage the city has is to work with Kraus-Anderson to get these items completed since most of the contractors and subs have their money. The council concurred with Councilmember Dietz that nothing written needs to be sent at this time. It was further noted that payment to Kraus-Anderson is still being withheld. l\1r. Dietz noted that reimbursement for the $19,000 water damage will have to come from Collins Electric's insurance company and that Attorney Beck should provide some feedback to the council as to whether the city can continue to hold that money.
