193 <br /> <br /> President Cecil asked if the prospect was agreeable with the <br /> proposed site selected and Mr. Vest said yes. Mr. Vest advised <br /> that the cost of the waterline extension was approximately <br /> $20,000.00. <br /> <br />-- President Cecil stated that Mr. Fendley's point was well taken <br /> and the Board might want to negotiate some higher side walls. <br /> Mr. 'Vest said they would be willing to do that. President <br /> Cecil called for questions concerning this prospect and there <br /> were none. <br /> <br /> President Cecil asked the City Engineer to give a report <br /> concerning the Model Building Project. Mr. Smith reported <br /> there was no progress at this time. President Cecil stated <br /> that if we approve the BITCO building project, the model <br /> building will be on hold. This was the consensus of the board. <br /> <br /> City Engineer Earl Smith stated that the beginning target date <br /> in connection with the improvements to Industrial Drive was <br /> August 28. <br /> <br /> President Cecil asked Mr. Amis to give his report regarding the <br /> purchase from the Paris Industrial Foundation. Mr. Amis said <br /> he asked Earl, before the board gave up on that site, to look <br /> at going the other direction with the sewer connecting with the <br /> Battle's Lift Station. Mr. Smith said he felt that it was <br /> prudent for the board to look at that because the entire 143 <br /> acres is unsewered at this point in time. Mr. Smith said he <br /> looked at the drainage area that approaches the site, as that <br />-- is the most logical and best place to locate the sanitary sewer <br /> for serving that area. Mr. Smith said the service area on the <br /> inside of the Loop would be appr6ximately 300 acres and he <br /> would propose a fifteen inch sewer, and the cost would be <br /> approximately $220,000.00 including all the other costs of <br /> construction, engineering, administration and legal. He said <br /> he assumed we had to purchase easements and that there was <br /> approximately 10% included for contingencies on the project. <br /> Mr. Smith said he felt this was the route the Board should take <br /> if they decide to go with this project. City Engineer Earl <br /> Smith stated that the cost estimate includes enough money for a <br /> consultant, if needed. <br /> <br /> President Cecil advised that the next item was in connection <br /> with Addendum No. One to the Employment Agreement. City <br /> Attorney Haynes advised in accordance with the Board's request <br /> they had amended the Contract to provide the numbers that were <br /> authorized. <br /> <br /> Res. 95-013,-Authorizing the execution of Addendum No. One to <br /> the Employment Agreement dated June 15, 1994, between the Paris <br /> Economic Development Corporation, the Lamar County Chamber of <br /> Commerce, and Mr. Gray L.
