DBA Knoxville Hospital and Clinics. Due to a recent hospital audit this is a requirement to continue with the current program and is a needed agreement with the City.

All ayes. Motion by Morse, seconded by DeJong to approve Police Department purchase of VirTra 100 Training Simulator. Chief Fuller explained this would be partnering with the State Center Police Department, Warren County Sherriff’s Office and Marion County Sherriff’s Office and be able to use this simulator as an aid in training and practice. We would potentially have it a few months out of the year. Gotta, Morse, DeJong, aye, Suhr, abstain. Motion by Suhr, seconded by Gotta to approve Resolution approving Master Agreement with Automation Inc. regarding Software Service Automation for the Knoxville Fire Department. Due to verbiage change in the Iowa code, the current pharmacy agreement is not substantial enough now. We have to become a subsidiary pharmacy which is still ran through the hospital but we have our own pharmacy license which has stricter codes to follow. This software will keep up with that and satisfy all state and federal regulations. This software will also track and view vehicle checks, times out of service, cost of repairs, anything we want it to track for us. All ayes. Motion by Morse, seconded by DeJong to approve payment of claims; all ayes. 94031 571 POLSON DEVELOPMENTS CED WAGES-MAY $6,666.67 94032 ABSOLUTE SCIENCE BUBBLE STATIONS-6/29/2022 $500.00 CONTROLLER RENTAL & 94033 ACCO UNLIMITED CORPORATION ASSISTANCE $2,209.60 94034 ALEXIS FIRE EQUIPMENT 314 VALVE REBUILD $1,254.31 94035 ALLIANT ENERGY 800 S PARK LANE $3,923.37 94036 ALLIED OIL & SUPPLY 6 DEF FLUID $155.88 AMERICAN MARKETING AND 94037 PUBLISH TEXT MARKETING $1,350.00 ATOMIC TERMITE & PEST 94038 CONTROL MONTHLY BUG SPRAY $90.00 94039 AUTOMATED SYSTEMS OF IOWA ANNUAL GAS DETECTION SYSTEM $480.00 94040 TRENTON BACUS UNIFORM REIMBURSEMENT $55.90 94041 BLANK PARK ZOO LIBRARY PROGRAMS 1 & 2 $160.00 94042 BOUND TREE MEDICAL LLC EMS SUPPLIES $4,816.43 94043 BROWN'S SANITATION YOUNG'S PARK $666.00 94044 DARREL BROWN HEALTH INS.
