The Moscow Mayor City Council welcomes you to tonight's meeting.  We
appreciate and encourage public participation.  For regular agenda items, an
opportunity for public comment is usually provided after the staff report.
However, the formality of procedures varies with the purpose and subject of
the agenda item; therefore, the Mayor may exercise discretion in deciding
when to allow public comment during the course of the proceedings and
limitations will be placed on the time allowed for comments.  Citizens
wishing to comment on business which is not on the agenda will be provided
the opportunity to do so as item number 2 after the Consent Agenda.  If you
plan to address the Council, you will find a list of "Tips for Addressing
the Council" on the table outside the City Council Chambers.  Thank you for
your interest in City government.

Conservation information and education on behalf of the City of Moscow. The
attached contract between PCEI and the City of Moscow is to provide these
services under the review of City staff. The work by PCEI will be in
conjunction with the efforts of the City of Moscow's water conservation
staff.  PCEI has existing accredited educational and information programs
that will meet the current needs of the City.  The work under this proposal
will occur in the 2004 budget year.  The budget for this proposal is $7,000.

3.         Change Order No. One - Northwest Reservoir Renovation - 2004 -
Les MacDonald

The Contractor under contract to re-coat the upper inside of the painted
steel reservoir has found significant degradation of some areas of the
roof's structural components and including a blistering of some of the paint
coating the bottom, interior of the elevated tank portion of the reservoir.
An extension of the existing scope of work is required in order to preserve
the integrity of the structure. Change Order Number One that includes the
work necessary to renovate the structure to a serviceable condition is an
additional $40,824.00 and extends the total project cost to $61,036.50.
These additional improvements are projected to allow an additional ten years
of service from the structure before other coating and/or structural
maintenance would be required.  This item was not reviewed by Committee
because of late discovery of need for unforeseen repairs and short time
frame for decision while contractor on site.

ACTION:  Approve change order number one or take such other action deemed
appropriate.
