<br />Councilmember Zemanek stated the bidder is Knox Askins, Trustee; and the person who prepared the <br />resolution is Clark Askins. Is that a conflict of interest? Should someone else have prepared the <br />resolution? Assistant City Attorney Clark Askins stated there is no conflict; Knox Askins was acting as <br />a trustee for a buyer and was not the buyer, not acting in the role of city attorney. Councilmember <br />Zemanek asked City Manager Alexander what his thoughts are on this. City Manager Alexander stated <br />there is nothing different than if it was Joe Citizen. If a councilmember has any misgivings, though, we <br />can run it by a third party attorney. Councilmember Zemanek stated it just does not pass the sniff test. <br />He also asked how someone finds out about these properties. Shelley Wolny stated there is a link to <br />the properties listed, and it will be sent to him. <br /> <br />When recognized by the Mayor to speak, Councilmember Earp stated that his question had been <br />answered regarding whether Knox Askins was purchasing the property. <br /> <br />Councilmember J. Martin made a motion to approve all Consent Agenda Items, with an amendment to <br />the minutes of the 1/23/17 Council Meeting, and an amendment to current Consent Item B, in the <br />Memorandum of Agreement with Shady River Homeowners Association, by replacing the word <br />fencing with the word improvements. Councilmember Clausen seconded the motion. MOTION <br />PASSED UNANIMOUSLY 8/0. Councilmember Leonard was absent. <br /> <br />7. REPORTS <br />(a) Receive report for ONESolution M. Dolby <br /> <br />Finance Director Michael Dolby presented a summary and advised the go-live date of January 30, <br />2017, was not met and informed Council that staff is hopeful to go live mid to early spring. <br /> <br />Paul Tovey, representative of SunGard, spoke and provided additional information. <br /> <br />Councilmember Earp asked when the implementation will be completed. Mr. Tovey responded by <br />April 15, 2017. <br /> <br />Senior System Administrator Ruston Royall spoke and provided an indepth update on the project. <br /> <br />Councilmembers provided numerous comments regarding the poor performance of <br />SunGard/ONESolution to get the City up and running. Councilmember Engelken stated he does not <br />have confidence SunGard/ONESolution can be finished, and that he feels it has been a complete <br />failure. <br /> <br />Mayor Rigby requested staff place an action item on this same subject on the February 27, 2017, <br />Council meeting agenda oor <br />performance and possible breach of contract. <br /> <br />(b) Continue public hearing to receive comments on the recommendation of the Dangerous Building <br />Inspection Board for condemnation of dangerous/substandard building located at 211 N.
