Mr. Pollard indicated that $10,776 had been budgeted <br />for equipment repair and that even with a transfer of funds <br />for the carpet, they would be approximately $6,000 -$7,000 <br />short, and they would need to explore other possibilities <br />for obtaining the needed funds. <br /> <br />Mr. Pollard indicated that upon inspection of the systems it <br />was determined that the complete outdoor section of the air <br />conditioner needed to be replaced at a cost of approximately <br />$8,146. Mr. Pollard explained that this was a high <br />priority, now that the warm weather season is fast <br />approaching. He further indicated that the heating system <br />could wait until closer to fall and by then, the necessary <br />funds would hopefully be secured. <br /> <br />Lori Johnson, Finance Director, explained that approximately <br />$17,313 would be available for the proposed work, taking <br />into account a $5,825 fund balance at the end of 1985, <br />transfer of $5,777 from the carpet replacement fund, and <br />$5,700 intended for the maintenance contract. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />COUNCILMEMBER ENGSTROM MOVED TO APPROVE THE TRANSFER OF <br />FUNDS BUDGETED FOR CARPET REPLACEMENT TO THE EQUIPMENT <br />REPAIR FUND.

Mr. Benson explained that <br />the uncollected tax portion would be used to purchase and <br />install a 60 Mil. synthetic liner in an unfilled cell at the <br />landfill site. Mr. Benson indicated that the area is <br />approximately two and a half acres in size and is located in <br />the southwest part of the landfill site which is currently <br />being mined and nearing completion. Mr. Benson explained <br />that a 4 foot layer of clay would be placed under the liner <br />and in the slope area and that there would be a 3 foot layer <br />of sand to prevent puncture of the liner by sharp objects <br />dumped at the site. He further explained that a leachate <br />collection system would be installed which consisted of <br /> <br />e <br />
