Councilman Judy asked ¡,II' Badolato if tho plans & Specifications dj,dnt take care of this ~ituation. Mr Badolato said that you are entitled to for this partj_culor plant, books on the pWìlpS, books on the motors, we have books that you are going to get. Engineer Becker said this seems like a very financial thiD.g on the part of Carey and Kramer. 'The city hc;.s hired the se people to design and to SUPAI'V ise the builcl.ing of the plan t but they are not going to tell us what they have done unless we pay them to. How it dosent seem right to me that vve shou.ld have to pay them to tell us hovi to run SOfia thing thèJ. t t.lley lwve done for us. This $eems like a scrofuJOus effort. to me and I vlÌll not hold m:y- tongue, but I think it is a very unethical thing to do and I ti:1Ìnk it should be referred to the licensing board of the state of Washington to fjnd - out vihy. It kind of disturbs me to have anything said about enginee:r:s, like this, beinc; ono !11YS c:;lf, but it is no t right thiCl t ShE:Y should do th is.' Tnis shouldnt be any. secret in that tllÌs shouldnt be the only plant like this that; is in operation. Basically, all plants are very similar to this, maybe di.í'forent hol?se pm'ler pmnps, rnaLle different flumes 80 through,thc:; thinG-or a different clarifier, different aspects like this, but basically it is the same. So I dont know why we talk about $2,500.00 to wrie up something that is already vlritten up. l-ilaybe not J_he exact form for the Ci ty of Port Townsend, it may have been ìn"itten up for the City of Oak £labor or so!ne ody IJko that. This writing; of this book for $2,500.00 is a real plum, boy it should be a cinch. - Mayor-Smi th said he was a little surprised Hhen he found it was not included in the original contract, and as it -stands nOV'1 they will not do anyt;'ing about tJ1Ìs unless we tell them to go ahead and do it. CO'L1l1cil!lîan I-I 'glund said he failed to see the need of this typo of publicati 'n and vlould assume vIe woLÙd receive the necess3ry maintenance manuels and OT.'-'-'T'ation instructions of the jab and fail to see the need in reducing this down to the grade school lovel of philosophy. POl" tho average individual to understorld what is happening out there I &,ssu.rne that the only manuels we need is for the field strip 'ing of eQuipment, and if it is for something more technical then we co~Üd c,Ül in the manufacturer. Councilman Hoglund asked I\1r Badolato if this book goes farther than just maintenance &:. Operation, the answer by Mr Badolato was yes it does. L'Iay:)r Smith asked if there r¡ere any further quest:ions - there ;¡iaS none. 8 I 8 lillJDURNlrtENT As thero was no further business to come before the council Counciloq.n Siebenbaum seconded by Counc ilman Lindsey tha t the i.-lotion carried. -~?; /) - -~ \ j,IA~)R-~c/l~~ ~ at this time it was moved by mee~,eetir~o now adjourn. ~~, I l,IHJUTES 01<" TIm REGULP,-R SE~;SIOlT OF JAlJUAl1Y 16, 196ß January 16, 1968 Port Townsend, Via~3hington ~'he ci ty council of the Ci ty of Port Townsend met, in__regular se~;si()n this 16th day of January 1968 at 7:30 p.m. in the council chanbers of the City liall.
