Session 1898 <br />September 29, 2003 <br /> <br />band, but specifying the quality sought. Once specified, vendors were contacted for <br />prices on equipment they provide. If the price differed from the one set by the City, they <br />asked vendors to explain why the prices differed. The same procedure was followed <br />for "free weights." In addition to general standards, there were preferred standards: "all <br />things being equal, if you can provide these elements we would like them as well." <br />Next Ms. Welsch sought clarification of the term "preferred", asking if it meant "things <br />we would prefer to have the vendors bid on." Mr. Moton responded that "preferred" <br />does not necessarily mean a "preferred brand", but "preferred in terms of amenities or <br />features." Some of these features are just enhancements, and just a preference. He <br />explained that many bidders familiar with the process, generally speaking, will provide <br />two examples: one at the Iow end and one which is a luxury package, because they <br />understand that most cities must adhere to budgets. Ms. Welsch continued to ask if the <br />alternate prices shown, represented the "higher end", and Mr. Moton said they were <br />indeed the upgrades. Mr. Ollendorff then stated that he would provide the Council with <br />copies of the entire specification packet to review and to see how the recommended <br />items meet the specifications. He added that he would not argue with a bidder's <br />assertion that "higher price means better quality"; that could be true. <br /> <br />The motion carried 3-1, with Ms. Welsch voting Nay. <br /> <br />CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM # 5 (Request for Discussion): <br /> <br />1148 Ferguson Liquor License Upgrade: Mr. Ollendorff recommended denial of the <br />request to upgrade the license from beer to all types of intoxicating liquor by the <br />package. Illegal activity at this location has required law enforcement attention on a <br />recurring basis. <br /> <br />Mr. Ollendorff said there was an application to upgrade a liquor license for 1148 <br />Ferguson, from sale of beer to sale of all kinds of intoxicating liquor by the package. He <br />recommended strongly that this be rejected because the business poses an on-going <br />problem for the Police Department. <br /> <br />Mr. Lieberman moved to deny the request, and Mr. Sharpe seconded the motion. <br /> <br />Mr. Lieberman shared some history of this business with the Council, pointing out that <br />over a period of approximately 20 years it has posed a neighborhood problem in <br />keeping the peace in the area of its location. Problems centered on cleanliness and <br />safety, and going to a "full license will exasperate" these problems and he agreed <br />strongly with Mr. Ollendorff. <br /> <br />The motion to deny carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Page 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
