Councilman Walls recommended we do not open the one bid
for the City Insurance from J. E. Tumblin Insurance Agency
of New Smyrna Beach, Florida. We should try and get additional
bids.
Mayor Tingle said everybody had a chance to bid on the Insurance.
It had been advertised.
Councilman Walls said it seems every year we are short on
Insurance Bids.
Councilman Bebbington said he knew of two or three different
companies that were not interested in bidding. They don't
want to go to the trouble. Most of the agents have to go to
Jacksonville, Orlando, or New York and it takes from three
weeks to get the bid back. It is their fault if they don1t
want to bid. We gave out the necessary information. It
seems it is just a lack of interest on their part.
Motion duly made by Councilman Bebbington we open the bid
on the City Insurance and go ahead with it, seconded by
Councilman Walls and by vote CARRIED.
Councilman Lodico said one insurance company said we did not
give enough time to bid. Next year we should give at least
one month.
The roll call vote on the motion to open the bid was unanimous.
The Bid from J. E. Tumblin Insurance Company of New Smyrna
Beach, Florida was $6,440.90
Motion duly made by Councilman Cairnie themd be accepted
for one year subject to the City Attorney1s approval,seconded
by Councilman Bebbington and by vote CARRIED. The roll call
vote was unanimous.
Mr. Tumblin suggested the City consider a three year plan
for the insurance.
Mayor Tingle asked the City Attorney if this would be legal.
Attorney Hall said there would be nothing wrong with purchasing
the insurance on a three year basis.
The Council agreed to give the matter some consideration.
PUBLIC HEARING ON STREET LIGHTS
A Map showing the proposed street lights and the changes to
be made was posted in three public places in the City.
Upon a question from the audience, Councilman Bebbington said
Florida Power & Light Co. is checking on easements in Florida
Shor.es so that lights can be put out there.
Mayor Tingle said there will be more lights on a survey to be
made later on.
