METUT~~S OF 'D-LE REGULAR .s~:SSIr)rT OP JANUARY 2, 1968 coNTnrul';D
I
Mr Badolato said that is what the böok is for.
, Councilman Judy asked ì"Ir Badolato if the plans & Specifications dj~dnt take care of this
situation. HI" Badolato said that you are entitled to for this particul~r plant, books on the
pwnps, books on the motor's, we have books that :-rou are going to get.,
Engineer Becker said thi s seems like a very .f inanc ial thing on thE) part o.f Carey and Kramer.
'I'b.e city hus hil"ed these people to design and to supGl"vise the building of the plant but they
are not going to tell us what they have done unless we pay them to. :LToV/ it dosent seem right
to me that we shouid have to pay them to tell us how to run somothirlg th~t they have done .for
us. This $eems like a scro.fulous effort.to me and I will not hold n~ tongue, but I think it is
a very unethical thing to do and I think it should be referred to the licensing board o.f the
state of Washington to fj_nd - out vihy. It kind of distm'bs me to have anything said about
enginee:r:s, IDee this, beinß one mysel.f, but it is not right thut shey should do this.'
Tnis shouldnt be any. secret in that t,:is shouldnt be the only },Üant Ince this that is in
operation. Basically, all plants are very similar to this, maybe d:Lfforent hoPse power pLLîlpS,
mabe different flumes go through ' tho thing-or a different clari.fier, different aspects like
this, but basically it is the same. So I dont k110\1 why \'1e talk about (;2,500.00 to wrie up
something that is already written up. r-.~aybe not :the exact form for tho City o.f Port Townsend,
it may have been rœi t ten up for the City of Oak ".Labor or some ody 1 ike that. This '\,'ll"i tins o.f
this book for ~~2,500.00 is a real plum, boy it should be a cinch.
Mayor Smith said he was a little surprised when he found it was not included in the original
contract, and as },t .stands n01:'! they \'fill not do anyt:ing about tJ1Ìs unless VOle tell them to
go ahead and do it.
Councilman E 'glund said he .failed to seo the need o.f this type o.f publicati 'n and would
assume '-"Ie wol.Ùd receive the necesssry maintenance manuels and ov-;ration i,nstructions of the jDb
and fail to see the need in reducing this down to the grade school level of philosophy. POI'
the averege individual to understBnd what is happening out there I ~ssume that the only manuols
we need is for the .field striping of eoui_pment, :;nd if it is for somet~ling more technical
then we co'Üd c;:èll in the manuSacturer. Councilmo.n Hoglund asked I:¡Ir Badolato if this book goes
farther than just maintenance & Operation, the answer by Mr Badolato was yes it does.
T,'lay~)r Sm1th asked if there \'iere any fv.rther quest::_ons - there ii/as none.
