WHEREAS, December 20, 30 and 31, 2006, the City of Grand Island sustained
damage to public facilities and infrastructure as a result of ice storms in the area; and
WHEREAS, clean up efforts were performed by the Streets Division of the Public
Works Department to clear trees and debris within the street right-of--way, with trees taken to the
snow stockpile site on East US Highway 30; and
WHEREAS, because the stockpile site is used for snow removal, it was necessary to
reduce the volume of trees and debris by grinding; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the city's Procurement Code, quotes were obtained for the
reduction of trees and debris and on February 22, 2007, O'Neill Wood Resources, LLC, was paid
$4,608.00 for such services, leaving a balance due of $28,961.28 due and payable to O'Neill Wood
Resources, LLC; and
WHEREAS, the city's Procurement Code limits the use of quotations to the amount
of $7,500.00, and therefore, City Council approval is needed to approve payment of the remaining
balance; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF GRAND ISLAND, NEBRASKA, that that payment of $28,961.28 to O'Neill Wood
