BOARD OF ALDERMEN ACTION REPORT
ISSUE: Approval - Permission to allow the City Administrator to sell city-owned personal
property of a 2006 Kubota Tractor.
ACTION REQUESTED: Motion/Second to approve allowing the City Administrator to sell
city-owned personal property of a 2006 Kubota Tractor.
BACKGROUND:
The Street Department currently has a 2006 Kubota Tractor that is having PTO and transmission
issues as well as air conditioner problems. This tractor has had two complete motor rebuilds and
the air conditioner has been repaired and is primarily used for mowing. Repairs for this equipment
would be $6,000 to repair the transmission and PTO issues. Due to this asset planned to be replaced
in the 2024-25 fiscal year, it is proposed to trade this asset into Martin’s Tractor for $9,500. Staff
plan to trade this tractor in for a 6-foot skid loader brush cutter for $6,700. Martin Tractor would
pay out the difference of $2,800 for the sale of the asset.
The Street Department has another tractor mower that can be used for the remaining mowing
season. The brush cutter can also be used as a mower. The brush cutter would be used to cut
underbrush and help mow right-of-way, the City lake property, and other small areas in town. This
will not replace the tractor replacement planned in next year’s Capital Improvement Plan.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Net profit of sale is $2,800

Estimated Lead Time 1 Weeks
The heavy-duty Jenkins Iron & Steel Super Duty Mower is a step up from our standard Brush Mower. Utilizing a direct drive motor, as
opposed to the standard gearbox, and a 1/4″ free-floating deck, this mower is ready for any challenge, including trees up to 7″ in
diameter. With 4 easy-to-replace blades, a 500 lb flywheel for maximum brush clearing and a standard flow rate of 14-25 GPM, you won’t
find another mower like this.
The deck is constructed of heavy-duty 1/4" steel and is completely free floating. This means the mounting plate moves independently of
the mower deck, making cutting on the uneven ground or ditches a breeze.
The back of our mower is designed to be rolled across the ground on a heavy-duty 6" roller standard and the front is picked up with the
tilt on the skid steer using two 13,000 lb heavy-duty non-weather rated straps, which takes the shock out of your machine and body. This
makes our mowers smoother and quieter than our competitors.
V slots are cut into the deck to help funnel material into the blades as well as allowing the mower to mow up to a fence post or tree
without cutting it off. Mower manifolds are designed to bypass fluid should blades become lodged and the mower comes to an abrupt
halt ensuring that you will not damage the mower! This standard flow mower requires 14-25 GPM of flow to run highly effectively!
Optional wheels or push bars are available.
FEATURES
• 1/4″ HD free floating deck
• Eaton Char-Lynn motor
• 4 easy to replace blades
• Wheel kit available
• Standard flow rate 14-26 gpm
• No gearbox
• 500 lb flywheel for maximum brush clearing capability
RESOLUTION NO. 2023-26
A RESOLUTION STATING FACTS AND REASONS FOR THE NECESSITY TO AMEND
AND INCREASE CERTAIN COMPONENTS OF THE CITY’S ANNUAL BUDGET FOR
THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING MARCH 31, 2023.
________________________________________________________
WHEREAS, Section 67.010 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri requires each political
subdivision of the State of Missouri (“State”) to prepare an annual budget and
establishes the requirements for that budget; and
WHEREAS, the City of Odessa, Missouri (“City”), is a city of the fourth classification created
pursuant to Chapter 79, RSMo, and is a political subdivision of the State of
Missouri; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Aldermen adopted and approved the City’s annual budget for the
Fiscal Year Ending March, 31 2023 (“Fiscal Year 2022-23”) by Ordinance No.
3067 in accordance with the requirements of Section 67.010, RSMo; and
WHEREAS, Sections 67.030 and 67.040 authorize and provide a procedure for the Board of
Aldermen to amend the City’s annual budget to increase expenditures in any
fund; and
WHEREAS, certain revenues for City’s operations for Fiscal Year 2022-23, have been higher
than budgeted; and
WHEREAS, certain expenses for City’s operations for Fiscal Year 2022-23, have been higher
than budgeted, but do not exceed revenues plus the City’s unencumbered
balance brought forward from previous years; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Aldermen desires to state the facts and reasons necessitating an
amendment to increase certain expenditures in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 annual
budget.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN OF THE CITY OF
ODESSA, MISSOURI, AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. An amendment to the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Annual Budget is necessary for the following facts
and reasons:
A. With the approval of a 2nd SRO MOU, funded by a grant from Lafayette County Children
Services, the costs to roll out a new position were incurred by the Police Department in various line
items. The Odessa School District paid the City of Odessa for these expenses resulting in the SRO Income
to increase $128,125.92 beyond what was initially budgeted.
B. In relation to the City Hall project, costs were incurred by the General Fund to pay for
engineering and various needs for the construction of the building. The City of Odessa applied for
reimbursement from the lease for expenses during FYE 2023. This income was not budgeted initially and
was moved into a General Fund line item called Escrow Reimbursement in the amount of $664,092.13.
C. The Odessa Police Department applied and was awarded several grants during the fiscal year in
the amount of $39,263.67. This was not initially budgeted for.
D. General Fund Professional Services line item was initially budgeted for $10,000. Due to the
engineering/architect expenses incurred for the City Hall project this line item was over budget by
$150,681.92. The majority of these expenses were reimbursed by the lease installment referenced
above in section B. Any project expenses, not yet reimbursed will be in FYE 2024.
E. It was initially budgeted to pay for one installment or half of the annual lease payment for the
City Hall COP lease. Due to expediting the lease in order to get the lower interest rate a full year of
payments was necessary for FYE 2023. This installment will come from General Fund reserves or can be
reimbursed by the loan depending on the availability of funds.
F. When the 2nd SRO MOU was approved it was decided that the Police Department would backfill
the vehicle moved to the SRO position with an additional vehicle purchase in FYE 2023 and would
reduce the vehicle budget in FYE 2024 from $80,000 to $40,000. The purchase of this vehicle was not
budgeted for in FYE 2023 and will come from reserves.
G. In relation to the City Hall project, costs were incurred by the Capital Improvement Fund to pay
for general contracting and various needs for the construction of the building. The City of Odessa
applied for reimbursement from the lease for expenses during FYE 2023. This income was not budgeted
initially and was moved into a Capital Improvement Fund line item called Escrow Reimbursement in the
amount of $42,737.07
H. A project account was created within the Capital Improvement fund to house expenses related
to the City Hall Project. This line item was not initially budgeted for and incurred expenses in the amount
of $200,906.15. A portion of these expenses were reimbursed by the lease installment referenced in
section G. Any project expenses not yet reimbursed will be in FYE 2024.
Section 2. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its execution by the Mayor, or otherwise
as provided by law.
APPROVED AND PASSED by the Board of Aldermen of the City of Odessa, Missouri, this 24th
day of July 2023.

Engineering to allow for the continuity of the project. Anderson Engineering was previously
selected to complete the blight study that was completed in 2019, the preliminary engineering and
construction cost estimates, the topographical scanned survey as well as the design engineering for
2nd Street. It is currently planned that this project would take place in the Spring of 2024. It is
expected that the next steps for Mason Street will be expedited due to the size and similarities it
has with the already-engineered 2nd Street.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The contract includes a do not exceed for design services of
$66,756 and $40,272 for construction inspection services. This will be paid for by the
Transportation Sales Tax Fund and is budgeted.

DISADVANTAGE BUSINESS ENTERPRISE CONTRACT PROVISIONS
_________________________________________________________________________________
1. Policy: It is the policy of the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Local Agency that businesses
owned by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals (DBE's) as defined in 49 C.F.R. Part 26 have the
maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of contracts financed in whole or in part with federal
funds. Thus, the requirements of 49 C.F.R. Part 26 and Section 1101(b) of the Transportation Equity Act for
the 21st Century (TEA-21) apply to this Agreement.
2. Obligation of the Engineer to DBE's: The Engineer agrees to assure that DBEs have the maximum
opportunity to participate in the performance of this Agreement and any subconsultant agreement financed in
whole or in part with federal funds. In this regard the Engineer shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to
assure that DBEs have the maximum opportunity to compete for and perform services. The Engineer shall not
discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, disability, sex, age, or national origin in the performance
of this Agreement or in the award of any subsequent subconsultant agreement.
3. Geographic Area for Solicitation of DBEs: The Engineer shall seek DBEs in the same geographic area
in which the solicitation for other subconsultants is made. If the Engineer cannot meet the DBE goal using
DBEs from that geographic area, the Engineer shall, as a part of the effort to meet the goal, expand the search
to a reasonably wider geographic area.
4. Determination of Participation Toward Meeting the DBE Goal: DBE participation shall be counted
toward meeting the goal as follows:
A. Once a firm is determined to be a certified DBE, the total dollar value of the subconsultant
agreement awarded to that DBE is counted toward the DBE goal set forth above.
B. The Engineer may count toward the DBE goal a portion of the total dollar value of a
subconsultant agreement with a joint venture eligible under the DBE standards, equal to the percentage
of the ownership and control of the DBE partner in the joint venture.
C. The Engineer may count toward the DBE goal expenditures to DBEs who perform a
commercially useful function in the completion of services required in this Agreement. A DBE is
considered to perform a commercially useful function when the DBE is responsible for the execution of
a distinct element of the services specified in the Agreement and the carrying out of those responsibilities
by actually performing, managing and supervising the services involved and providing the desired
product.
D. A Engineer may count toward the DBE goal its expenditures to DBE firms consisting of fees or
commissions charged for providing a bona fide service, such as professional, technical, consultant, or
managerial services and assistance in the procurement of essential personnel, facilities, equipment,
materials or supplies required for the performance of this Agreement, provided that the fee or commission
is determined by MoDOT’s External Civil Rights Division to be reasonable and not excessive as
compared with fees customarily allowed for similar services.
E. The Engineer is encouraged to use the services of banks owned and controlled by socially and
economically disadvantaged individuals.
5. Replacement of DBE Subconsultants: The Engineer shall make good faith efforts to replace a DBE
Fig. 136.4.1 Contract Revised 01/27/2016
Subconsultant, who is unable to perform satisfactorily, with another DBE Subconsultant. Replacement firms
must be approved by MoDOT’s External Civil Rights Division.
6. Verification of DBE Participation: Prior to final payment by the Local Agency, the Engineer shall file
a list with the Local Agency showing the DBEs used and the services performed. The list shall show the actual
dollar amount paid to each DBE that is applicable to the percentage participation established in this Agreement.
Failure on the part of the Engineer to achieve the DBE participation specified in this Agreement may result in
sanctions being imposed on the Commission for noncompliance with 49 C.F.R. Part 26 and/or Section 1101(b)
of TEA-21. If the total DBE participation is less than the goal amount stated by the MoDOT’s External Civil
Rights Division, liquidated damages may be assessed to the Engineer.
Therefore, in order to liquidate such damages, the monetary difference between the amount of the DBE goal
dollar amount and the amount actually paid to the DBEs for performing a commercially useful function will be
deducted from the Engineer's payments as liquidated damages. If this Agreement is awarded with less than the
goal amount stated above by MoDOT’s External Civil Rights Division, that lesser amount shall become the goal
amount and shall be used to determine liquidated damages. No such deduction will be made when, for reasons
beyond the control of the Engineer, the DBE goal amount is not met.
