SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS AND PUBLIC COMMENTS
City Manager Joe Fivas and Mayor Books presented Assistant City Manager/CFO Shawn
McKay and the budget officers with the Budget Presentation Award from the Government Finance
Officers Association for FY2019. This is the twenty-first consecutive year the City has received this
award for its budget document. This award reflects the commitment of the governing body and staff
to meet the highest principles of governmental budgeting; according to GFOA. In order to receive
the budget award, the city had to satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for effective budget
presentation. These guidelines are designed to assess how well an entity’s budget serves as a policy
document; a financial plan; an operations guide and a communications device. A budget document
must be rated “proficient in all four categories to receive the award” according to GFOA.
City Manager Joe Fivas stated the Finance Department of the City of Cleveland has
received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Award for
FY2018. This is the thirty-first consecutive year. He then presented Assistant City
Manager/CFO Shawn McKay, City Accountant Amy Newman, Auditor Mark Lay and budget

Trent Jones and Incoming Flag Sentry Civil Air Patrol Cadet Chief Master Sgt. Ella Kidd. They
have the honored tradition of raising and lowering the flags across the City and County.
HEARING PETITIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS
Mr. Lombard, who is the President of the HOA for Weston Hills Subdivision addressed the
City Council concerning the rezoning of six lots on Georgetown Road adjacent to their subdivision.
He will be out of town when the rezoning item comes before the City Council in September. He
stated he is not opposing or affirming the rezoning. Residents have concerns about traffic and safety
in the area. He understands the homeowners who are asking for the rezoning seek to recover their
losses when TDOT widens Georgetown Road. Recently, he spoke with a TDOT representative
who stated they will be taking two houses when they begin widening Georgetown, so Mr. Raspa
will recover his appraised value. Councilman Estes stated he didn’t feel this was the time for
discussion since this item was not before them and no one is present to refute the statements.
Councilman Cassada stated Mr. Lombard will be out of town on September 9 and he should be able
to speak. Mr. Lombard continued that they are concerned about values of their properties as well
and looking ahead to protect their investments. Again, they do have concerns and we have met with
the Planning Commission to discuss and we will leave the decision to the Council but wants them
aware there are mix reviews on the rezoning.

REPORTS OF MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
Councilman McKenzie asked staff to take a look at the signal at Edwards and Inman
Street. If you pull up to the light you are almost in the roadway. Mr. Bacon stated he believes
the stop bar is positioned further back but he will take a look.
Councilman Estes stated staff planned well for the Community Day at Deer Park and it
was positive on so many levels. He thanked all those involved.
Councilman May also thanked staff for the Community Day at Deer Park. It is a gem in
the center of Cleveland. It is unreal what has been built. Staff put the work in, and it shows they
want it to be the best park in Tennessee.
Councilman Webb stated Saturday was a great day at Deer Park. Once completed, it is
going to be very nice and a great asset to the community. It was nice to see the neighborhoods
coming out and working together. He then made a request to add an item to the next agenda to
look at our options allowed by State law to prohibit smoking in parks, playgrounds, pavilions
and greenways.
Mayor Brooks echoed the comments about the Deer Park Community Day. He met a
couple from out of town, saw the event on social media and came to be involved. It was well
promoted and had great turnout. All had a great time.

MINUTE BOOK 29
Councilman May moved to authorize the Mayor to sign the application for the BCBS grant
for an amount of $4 million in grant funds. The motion was seconded by Vice Mayor Johnson.
Councilman Estes asked if they would see the schematics prior to submission, as he doesn’t feel
eight basketball courts will fit. Mr. Fivas stated yes, we can do a schematic so you can see the
layout. Vice Mayor Johnson stated at the TML Conference the BCBS Foundation talked about the
millions of dollars they had in the foundation and he is glad we are applying. Councilman May asked
about the mention of using existing foundation slabs and if that was relayed to the contractor. Mr.
Fivas replied he didn’t feel they are in a hurry to remove them. They have discussed leaving the
slabs, but it is something we will need to get clarified. Councilman Cassada asked if there will be
room for administrative offices or concession stands. Mr. Fivas stated yes, it will have all that plus
bathrooms and restaurants. Upon roll call, the motion was unanimously approved.

MINUTE BOOK 29
Mr. Fivas reviewed the following memo concerning the bid report for the Tinsley Pickleball
Courts. Staff recommends rejecting the bids and rebidding the project, but the City Council can
waive the irregularities if they choose. The downside is it will delay the project until spring and it is
possible to not received bids or the cost can go up. We recommend rebidding but it is ultimately the
Council’s decision. Mr. Kimball stated it has been your practice when you have irregularities to
rebid the project and agrees with staff’s recommendation to reject and rebid. Councilman Webb
asked if there was a plan for future lighting if we only install the conduit. Mr. Fivas stated we would
work it through our next budget process.

COMMITTEE FINDINGS:
No Board or Committee findings.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
The base bid with alternate item # 2 is within budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends rebidding this project, due to the following irregularities found in both bids:
One of the bids did not include the Statement of Bidder’s Qualifications form that was required
as part of the proposal.
The second bid lacked required signature(s) on page 5 of the proposal and there were minor
errors in calculations listed on the bid form.
Although staff recommends rebidding this project, the Council has the right to waive all
irregularities, and award the contract to the lowest bidder based on the following scopes of work:
• Base Bid including Alternate Item #1 – Installation of six pickleball courts with fencing,
accessories and court lighting.
The apparent low bidder for Base Bid with Alternate Item # 1 is Baseline Sports with a
total bid amount of $225,941.88.
• Base Bid including Alternate Item #2 – Installation of six pickleball courts with fencing,
accessories and court lighting conduit only, for future light installation.
