Roll Call

Consent Agenda:

Approval of Minutes & Appointments Made:

Committee-of-the-Whole and Council meeting minutes of February 6, 2018, and appointments made during Committee-of-the-Whole on February 13, 2018.

Second Reading Ordinances:

1. Council Bill/General Ordinance 3003-2018

An Ordinance amending Chapter 15, “Garbage And Trash,” of the Moline Code of Ordinances, Section 15-2203, “Special Exceptions,” by enacting new subsections (27), (28), and (29) allowing for curbside automated garbage and recycling collection in three subdivisions not currently receiving the service.

Explanation: The City requires refuse collection to occur in the public right-of-way. City authorized garbage or recycling trucks cannot collect refuse along private drives without a special exception from the City Council. There are currently 27 neighborhoods that have received this special exception, as the City has many neighborhoods that are only served by private roads. Since the City provided refuse collection to the neighborhoods in the past, Council found that it would cause undue and serious hardship to cease refuse collection when the City changed to automated refuse collection. Staff would like to begin curbside automated garbage and recycling collection in three subdivisions not currently receiving the service. These locations are the 1400 block of 51st Street Drive, which is a new development, the 3100 block of 27th Street Drive, and the 3700 block of 47th Street Drive, which are existing subdivisions.

A Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a Local Agency Agreement for Federal Participation for Motor Fuel Tax Section 17-00268-00-RS, Milling and Resurfacing with ADA Ramp Improvements on 12th Avenue and 16th Street.

A Resolution approving Change Order #2 with Miller Trucking and Excavating for Project #1211, 40th Street South of 32nd Avenue.

Explanation: In order to make final payment to the contractor and close out the project, a change order is needed in the amount of $63,899.18.

A Resolution authorizing the purchase of a 2018 John Deere 444KXT Loader in an amount up to $145,000.

Explanation: Funds are budgeted for the purchase of a John Deere 444KXT loader for use by the Streets Division to replace the current 1997 John Deere loader. Fleet staff requested a quote from John Deere using its government discount program. The local John Deere dealer, Martin Equipment, submitted a quote in the amount of $145,000 that includes a trade allowance in the amount of $15,000 for the City’s 1997 John Deere loader for a total of $130,000.

Therefore, staff is also seeking to dispose of the current equipment by the method that is most advantageous to the City. If sold for a higher price and not traded-in, the amount paid to the dealer would be $145,000. However, the City would retain the proceeds from the sale of the current equipment. If the 1997 loader is traded-in, the price will be $130,000. Additional documentation attached.
