Big Sandy City Hall at 115 Johannes Ave Big Sandy, MT 59520
SPECIAL MEETING
Present: Mayor Shaud Schwarzbach, Darin Ray, Jon Sheehy and Ted Pursley were present.
Leslie Gregory took the minutes.
Public: None
Mayor Schwarzbach called the meeting to order.
Bid Award: The council approved a motion to accept C&C Excavation’s base bid and alternate, and gave approval for the Mayor to sign the Notice of Award, the Notice to Proceed, and any other funding documents before the next council meeting. However, there were a few things that came up:
• Michele Turville from Bear Paw Development Corporation said that RD will require some justification for C&C’s unit price for the fill station being significantly higher than the other • She even mentioned trying to negotiate that price down a little bit, which she said is something they have done before. The City also said they will still likely accept the alternate regardless, but would like to at least attempt to negotiate that price down.
• Michele also said that the Mayor could not sign the Notice of Award until the bids have been reviewed and approved by RD and TSEP, so the Mayor is holding on to that document until that process is done .
• The City also put wording in the motion to only accept the alternate contingent on being awarded the additional funding, so it won’t have to come out of pocket. Michelle assured they are very likely to get the additional funding, which matches what RD told Logan previously.
Brownfield: Lockhart’s are unable at this time to come up with more than $5000.00 for the escrow account. A comprehensive clean up plan needs to be put together and the council will look at the project after the pan is completed.
Ordinance 2018-01/Noxious and Nuisance Weeds: First reading.
Kralich lease: Darin Ray moved that a bill should be sent for the past due and a notice to rebid put together. Motion passed.
The meeting was adjourned.
