(This is authorized in Ord. 2023-23) Raber: To put on the record, we have a concern raised by Finance Director Gilbride. The contract is actually with Sourcewell. Justin is checking on this because there is a provision under R.C. 125.04(C) that states if it’s lower than the State Purchasing price we can proceed. If it is not lower we will need to have an amended ordinance. We will reconvene once this is resolved. Mayor Kline: Ok, with that we will adjourn for now. Item 4: Additional Items: None Adjournment: The meeting was adjourned at 8:39 a.m. Board of Control minutes for this meeting electronically distributed March 21, 2023/tf
