Members Absent: Bobby Williams, Tammi Diehm and Dennis Ecklund. Staff Present: Executive Director-Walt Fehst, Community Development Director-Scott Clark, Assistant Community Development Director- Sheila Cartney CommonBond Staff Present: Laura Sheak 3. Pledge of Allegiance – Recited Business Item 4. Eagle Elevator Bid Because there wasn’t a quorum the HRA decided to have staff present the item, answer questions and then recess until Tammi could attend the meeting. Scott explained the main elevator at Parkview Villa is not working and needs repair. Staff deemed this an emergency and had CommonBond staff get a quote for the repair, because the amount of the repair is over $15,000 a special meeting was called by Chair Diehm for approval by the board. Only one bid was received due to the contract we have with Eagle elevator, other elevator companies will not do work when there is an existing contract involved. Questions from members: Nawrocki asked what caused this. Laura explained it was a drive shaft that went out, the parts are obsolete and need to be redesigned, which is driving the price up. Nawrocki asked how long we have had a contract with Eagle and if we think they are doing a good job. Laura said since 2004 and so far they have been adequate. Nawrocki suggested looking at the contract and maybe consider not renewing and going out for other bids. Gary asked how long a drive shaft should last? Laura thought 20 years, it has been over 30 years for this one. Motion by Nawrocki, second by Kelzeberg to continue the meeting until another HRA member comes in order to establish a quorum. All Ayes, Motion Passed. The meeting was called back to order at 6:20pm upon Commissioner Diehm’s arrival. A quorum was established. Diehm asked if everyone’s questions were answered and if anyone had anything to add. Motion by Peterson, second by Kelzenberg to approve the Eagle Elevator Repair bid dated December 9, 2010 in the amount of $19,650. Motion passed unanimously. Chair Diehm thanked Bruce Kelzenberg for his service to the HRA Board. Adjourned at 6:23pm. Respectfully Submitted, Sheila Cartney, Assistant Community Development Director
