757 758 And there is no pending called out, I believe. That said, I live down the road. Make sure any other. Okay. Resolution. Okay. Thank you. So, Councilman Flynn, do you mind if we pull up? 72, 87, three. You don't need a vote. You just need a comment. Correct. I have comment and a request. So you can do all three at once. Okay, great. Thank you. We'll pull up 72, 73, 79 for comment. Councilman Flynn, go ahead. Thank you, Mr. President. These are three contracts that began under the $500,000 threshold that requires that they come to council. And two of them with Jeff Sadow and Martin and Martin came up. We they were approved in June of 2015. There was one amendment in September, apparently, that didn't have to come to council because it was still under the threshold, but it was within $20,000 of the threshold. And now we're doubling the amount of the contract in just a year. And then the third contract with Davey Tree with Parks and Rec. I don't know if anybody here from Parks who can comment thank you. Can comment on this. This one was $499,000, $1,000 under the threshold, and now we're adding $100,000. And, Mr. President, we've talked about this before, and I don't know how to avoid this, but I just want to put it out there that when we get contracts for amendment and they had been issued just under the threshold where they should have come to us in the first place. It kind of bothers me that we didn't get to have any purview over it before, and it's sort of like the proverbial camel's nose under the tent. What choice do we have now that they're in the field? And I don't think that's fair to this council. But what I would like to request is for public works in Parks and Rec, at least to give us a a list of the work orders that have taken place under the Sardo and the Martin and Martin contract and under the Davey Tree. Davey tree is an increase in scope, I believe as well, so that we can track the work orders because these are on call contracts and we can get a better sense of the work that's being done under them. And maybe answer the question why were these not scoped properly? This the two engineering contracts on call are just over a year old, and if we're already increasing them by double, that raises a question where they should have been should have been that amount in the first place and come to us. So thank you, Mr. President, to all I have. Okay. Would you like public works and do you want to get that via email or would you like to have them come up now. Unless they feel an urgent need to respond to that? I really don't. I would just like to get the information and maybe send it to the whole council. Yeah, I'm going to ask. Thank you. Parks and Public Works. Please send that to the entire council so we can look over that. Thank you. Okay, let's pull up. 778. Councilman Herndon has a comment. Go ahead. Thank you, Mr. President.
