Regular City Council Meeting <br />September 23 , 2003 <br />Page 9 <br />Councilman Bell asked that the city staff write a letter to cities that are under <br />contract with their brief comments concerning privatization and with the <br />question, if they had to do it again, would they, and that the city staff to ask two <br />companies to provide them with information for what it entailed in a request for <br />proposal. <br />City Attorney Schenk advised that they have already requested copies of <br />contracts from cities that were using OMI communities, but to say that every <br />city that is privatized send them a letter. He did not know if there is a central <br />index for privatized cities. <br />Councilman Bell said he would like to locate some cities across the board with <br />a simple letter from them of whether or not they would do it again. Councilman <br />Bell did not want a big long report or staff spending a lot of time on this. The <br />letter could be duplicated. <br />Councilwoman Neeley said she would like to have letters sent to companies that <br />have opted out and why the opted out. She said that Reed and Stowe should <br />have that information and wanted to know if they would have that information. <br />City Attorney Schenk advised they could ask if they have that type information, <br />but what you are looking at is not only trying to identify cities that are privatized <br />and decided to change back. He did not know how that could be identified. <br />Mayor Fendley said that Reed and Stowe could be a starting place and report <br />back to the Council. <br />City Attorney Schenk presented the following petition for referral to the <br />Planning and Zoning Commission at their meeting in November: Tyron <br />Roundtree and Dorothy Diggs, Lot 18, City Block A, East Park Addition 1700 <br />N. E. l Oth Street, from a One Family Dwelling District No. 3 to a One Family <br />Dwelling District No. 3 with Specific Use Permit, Manufactured home. <br />There being further business, a motion was made by Councilman Bell, seconded <br />by Mayor Fendley, to adjourn the meeting.
