Pre-scheduled visitor, Mr. Ken Haraldsen, 3018 Wouth
Washington Street, was present and discussed his proposal that
the City of Englewood take full responsibility for all water
mains within the City.
Mr. Haraldsen also discussed deleting the cat law from
the animal ordinance. Mr. Haraldsen stated he thought inadequate
facilities existed at the shelter to care for the cats; and he
thou,ht it would be embarrassing for people to take their neigh-
bors cats to the shelter on the grounds that the cats were a nui-
sance.
City Manager Mccown responded that Council had directed
the City to take over the water lines and have provided to do so
with personnel and equipment. Also, cat cages have been ordered
by the police department to help enforce the cat law under the
animal ordinance.

Mayor Otis asked if there were any other visitors in the
audience wishing to speak to Council at this time.
Mrs. Beverlee Howe, 3255 South Delaware, appeared before
Council. Mrs. Howe expressed her concerns on allowing citizens
to trap cats. Mrs. Howe feared people who disliked cats would take
advantage of the availability of traps and many captured cats would
never get taken to the shelter for reclaim by the owner.
City Manager Mccown stated the City would control handl-
ing the distribution of cat traps.
Council discussed the cat law at length with Mrs. Howe.
Mayor Otis assured Mrs. Howe the new law would not be a license
to trap cats.
Council granted Mr. Haraldsen's request to appear again
before Counc i l. Mr. Haraldsen's expressed concerns regarding how
assessment of fines were going to be handled if the captured cats
were proven to be strays.
Council Member Bilo it was a new law for the protection
of cat owners as well as a law to help people who view stray cats
as a nuisance. Council Member Higday stated the law may be revised;
but the citizens should first see if it will work.

of a firm to perform the City Survey. Mr. Zylstra stated he had
wanted a chance to offer a proposal and his firm had not been
asked to submit one.
Mayor Otis stated the process was an administrative
one and asked Mr. Mccown to explain the process. Mr. Zylstra
stated it had already been explained to him. He only wanted to
voice his concerns.
Council Member Higday stated he understood no one on
the City staff knew Mr. Zylstra was in the business of surveying.
Mr. Higday suggested that Mr. Zylstra write a letter to the City
informing the staff of his firm and what kind of business they
would be interested in performing for the City.
City Manager Mccown stated Council had the authority
to determine whether this selection procedure was satisfactory
or unsatisfactory and could order the selection process to be
done differently.
Council Member Neal stated Council could not direct
a change of action in this particular case; however, they would
be alert to the procedure in the future.
In response to Council Member Bilo's question, City
Manager Mccown there would be no guarantee that Mr. Zylstra's
firm would have been chosen if he had been contacted. Mr.
Mccown stated factors other than cost are taken into considera-
tion.
Council Member Higday stated Council had no authority
to change the selection at this time; hm'1ever, he encouraged Mr.
Zylstra to get his name on record with the City and on future-
related projects, his firm would be considered. Council Member

City Manager Mccown presented a memorand\Dtl from the
Director of Finance and the Fire Chief concerning the bid for
the mini-p\Dtlper. Mr. McCown stated the actual low bid in terms
of cost was American Fire Equipment for $31,471. Other bids

the award to Modular Vehicles for the reasons set out in the
memorand\DD. Mr. Mccown stated Fire Chief Beeson as well as a
representative from American Fire Equipment were present to
answer any questions. Mr. Mccown stated the bids were good
until January 28, 1980.
Fire Chief Beeson appeared before Council and answered
questions from Council Members Fitzpatrick and Higday in that he
did not know the effect of gas cons\DDption and mileage in going
to a larger engine; and this vehicle was similar to those used
in surrounding co11111Unities. Mr. Beeson stated there were several
items in the bid specifications that American Fire Equipment did
not answer specifically.
Mr. Jim Costello, 938 Elizabeth Street, Denver, repre-
sentative from American Fire Equipment, appeared before Council.
In response to Council's questions, Mr. Costello stated there was
probably misco111111nication between his office in Denver and the of-
f ice that prepared the bid in Kansas City which resulted in not
all bid specifications being answered. Mr. Costello stated his
company could probably provide those items not addressed in the
bid submission.
City Manager Mccown advised Council against negotiating
these items without contacting the other bidders as well.

LAR VEHICLE FOR THE MINI-PUMPER. Council Member Fitzpatrick sec-
onded the motion.

was publishing a directory of all businesses in the City; and staff
could refer to it when soliciting for projects in the future, if
Council so desired.
