UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Recommendation Regarding Lease Agreement (Soda Machine) – Mayor Chiaverotti
explained she received answers to the Committee’s questions from George Wolwark.
The two machines at the Library and City Hall are under contract with Pepsi and Pepsi
supplies the machines. There is a minimum order that is required and with only one
machine City Hall would not meet the requirement. A poll was taken and most
employees are interested in a new machine and would prefer Coke products and
snacks. The City is currently under- pricing the soda at .35 cents and could go up to .50
cents for soda, but would still be able to purchase it for much less. The lease will be for
3 years and then the City has the option to purchase the machine for $1.00. There will
be a 2 year maintenance agreement on parts and labor. General maintenance will be
done by the City such as lighting, coil cleaning and coin changer adjustments. The new
machine will go in the foyer to help increase turn- over of the stock. Ald. Borgman
moved to approve. Ald. Schaumberg seconded; motion carried.

Dedication Fund. The additional funds will come out of the Landfill Fund. The bid
includes an alternate bid of $59,490.50 for the bypass lane to be done this year at a
cost savings. Ald. Schaumberg moved to recommend approval to award the Park
Arthur Parking Lot Expansion project, including the base and alternate bid, to
Payne & Dolan, Inc. in the amount of $219,268.25. Ald. Soltysiak seconded;
motion carried.
