The City Manager advised the Commission that the front end loader used by
the street Department was in need of extensive repair which would amount
to approximately $1,000.00, and that the sum of $5,000.00 had been appro-
priated in the 1961 budget fqrpurchaseof a new machine; however, upon
checking with the equipment dealers, the sum of $5,000.00 is inadequate
for purchase of anew machine as the price has increased considerably in
the past 6 ~o 8 months., It ianow estimated that it will take approximate-
ly $8~000.OO for a new machine. Two solutions were offered for consideration
by 'the Commission; (1) That an immediate expenditure of approximately $l~OOO.OO
be made on the present machine in order that it could possibly be used for'an-
, other year ~ or (2) That an additional amount of approximately $3~000.00 be
appropriated for the purchase of a new machine. It was the City Managers
recommendation'that'repairs be made to the present machine with a new onet6
be purchased:;.possiblydtiring .1962; further that the sum of' $1,000.00 be trans-
, ferre<i from the amount appropriated, for street Department Capital Outlay to
the Street Departmentexpend:i.tures.
Motion by,Commissioner Rice~ seconded by'Co-qnnissioner Bowman~ that the, sum
of $1,000.00 be transferred from the amount' appropriated for street:Depart-
ment CapitaJOutlay to the Street Department Expenditures in order that the
front end lo~der might be repaire.g: and used for, another year by the street
Department:

A request from ~.,'Earl W. Gammage and John G. Holland for renewal of a ,
Vendor's Lien Note,in the principal amount of $16,666.66 and accrued' inter-'
est in the amount of $1,360.00, a total of $18,026.66 due March 13, '1961, was
discus'sed. It was eXPlained that this amount was the balance' due on a tract
of land formerly owned by the City and used as garbage disposal:grpunds.
Approximately:12 Acres of this ground is security for the said note which
Mr. Galnmagedes,ire's to r€new for a 12, month period at 4~interest. It was
the decision of the Commission thl;l.t the City Attorney should examine the, in-
strumentand give his opinion as to the legality of such renewal at the
next regular meeting. '
Incompliance with action taken by the Commission on January 23, 1961, the
City Manager submitteda'tabulation on the bids received for delivery of
automobile and truck equipment,with:arecommendation that Unit No.4-be
purchased from Jimmie Green Chevrolet Company for. a net difference of
$2,232.64; inasmuch as' the low bid submitted by Jack Roach, Inc., in the a-
mount of $2,082.74 did not meet the specifications on the air conditioner
also that records, indicate an, operating cost of ~ less pefmile for the
Chevrolet automobile as compared to the Ford. It was recommended that'tne

on Unit 5 be accepted, and that the bid of $2,126.97 net difference sub-
mitted by Raymond Pearson be accepted for purchase of Unit No.6. It was

6 failed to include fish plating of the truck frame; therefore, their bid
did not meet the specifications.

Swimming Fool were present upon invitation to appear before the COmmis.;.
sion to discuss certainpha.ses of the swi1ll'mingpooloperations. The .

closed' to all outsiders and a charge made for thcdr entering tne enclos-
ed swimming pool area. It was stated that adverse criticism had been
received last year for reason that citizens bad not been given advance
notice of the change in policy with respect to admittance to the swim-
'ming'pool enclosure and that there was also objection to payiuga 65~
