<br />Award of contract to the low bidder was recommended.
<br />
<br />Public hearing was held with no testimony presented.
<br />
<br />Mr. Williams moved seconded by Mr. Hershner to award contract to the
<br />low bidder (Mulheim's Clark Electric - $35,673.98).
<br />
<br />Councilman McDonald wondered why lights were being installed for recreational
<br />activities in view of the energy crisis. Manager recommended going ahead with
<br />the project even though some curtailment in lighting might become necessary in
<br />the future. He said that with the inability to obtain gasoline the City's
<br />recreational facilities were experiencing rapidly increasing demands, particularly
<br />softball fields. He added that the present energy crisis was expected to be
<br />temporary, in terms of years, and the installation proposed would last for many
<br />years to come. Also, unnecessary electrical use was being cut in other areas
<br />where it would not affect the overall program.
<br />
<br />Councilwoman Beal wondered whether funds for the installation were included _
<br />in this year's budget and whether it would be practical to postpone the installa-
<br />tion until more information was available on the amount of electrical energy it
<br />would call for. Councilman Murray noted that the area in which the lighting was
<br />proposed was one which had very minimal recreation facilities and he. favored going
<br />ahead. He said there was a lot of community interest expressed in this develop-
<br />ment and that he thought there were other solutions to the energy crisis. He
<br />added that the gasoline shortage seemed to make an even stronger demand for
<br />neighborhood recreational facilities within easy walking distance. Councilman
<br />Hershner called attention to the seasonal use of the ballfield, that it would
<br />be used more during the summer evenings when other demands on electrical energy
<br />would not be so great.
<br />
<br />Rollcall vote was taken on the motion as stated. Motion carried, all
<br />councilmen present voting aye.
