Explanation:
1. A Resolution authorizing the Utilities General Manager to purchase a Flygt pump for the Coal Creek Lift Station, in the amount of $15,700. (Alex Stanko, Sewer Collection Crew Leader)
Explanation: One of the four pumps has failed at the Coal Creek Sanitary Sewer Lift Station. The quote to repair the pump is $11,388.44. Replacement of the pump with warranty costs $15,700. Under normal weather conditions, the lift station can function properly with three working pumps. The fourth pump serves as a back-up and is only used in extreme rain events. Due to the uncertainty of extreme weather and potential liability created by such, and because the cost to repair the pump versus replacement is minimal, staff recommends replacement of this pump.
After considerable investigation for the best technology available, Electric Pump has been determined to be the only supplier of Flygt pumps meeting the requirements for the present and future needs of the City

2. A Special Ordinance authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an Extension Agreement between Financial District Properties HQO, L.L.C., and the City of Moline. (Maureen Riggs, City Attorney)
Explanation: In September 2016, Financial District Properties HQO, L.L.C., was given an extension to June 30, 2017, to make the final payment to the City of their loan. The current balance of the loan that is due and owing is $3,448,053.73. The Developer has a signed purchase agreement for sale of property that, upon closing, will pay the remaining balance of the loan. However, the closing will not occur before June 30, 2017. The Developer has requested an extension to August 22, 2017. This would give adequate time for the closing to occur. To grant this extension, the City would require that payment of its loan be listed on the HUD-1 Settlement Statement for the closing of the property. Further, the City would not assign the current property tax rebates until its loan is paid in full. Additionally, if payment in full is not made on or before August 22, 2017, then by agreement of the parties, the City would add an additional $200,000.00 to the balance of the loan then due and payable. All other terms of all loan documents would remain in full force and effect.

3. A Resolution authorizing the City Administrator and Chief of Police to execute an Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Moline and the Quad City Metropolitan Enforcement Group for the period July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018, setting forth the terms for the police department’s continued participation in this multi-jurisdictional law enforcement effort. (Kim Hankins, Chief of Police/Public Safety Director)
Explanation: The Quad City Metropolitan Enforcement Group (MEG) is a multi-jurisdictional law enforcement unit that combats illegal drug trafficking and the use and distribution of controlled substances. The police department has participated as a member of MEG since its formation in 1977. Previously, an updated agreement was only intermittently executed; however, the Department of Justice now requires MEG to annually renew its agreements with agencies.
