Councilman Summiel asked about item #30, with regard to the PARIS grant.
Attorney Hartsough gave a brief explanation. Administrator David Thompson said
he met with both General Code and AMI and they are both behind with regard to
the re-codification and the scanning process. His understanding is that they believe
they underestimated the amount of documents to be scanned and will be bringing us
a change order soon.
Councilwoman Wollert spoke about check #39505 on the bills list, which has been
pulled a couple of times before, said she has asked for information from
administration and has not been satisfied with the answers she got, but she is not
going to hold it up because it is not the fault of the person who entered the contract
in good faith. She stated that the township could have saved money by utilizing
personnel on staff to do the work.
