The Ames City Council met in Special Session at 1:05 p.m. on the 22 day of May, 2015, in the Citynd
Council Chambers in City Hall, 515 Clark Avenue, pursuant to law with Mayor Ann Campbell
presiding. Since it was impractical for all Council members to attend in person, Council Members

CHANGE IN BID DUE DATE FOR ELECTRIC SERVICES UNIT #7 CRANE REPAIR:
Assistant Director of Electric Services Brian Trower explained that two technical addendums had
been issued recently, and a few interested bidders had requested bid extensions in order to review
and process. Staff had determined that it would be in the City’s best interest to extend the bid due
date to allow interested bidders enough time to process the additional addenda.
At the inquiry of Council Member Nelson, Mayor Campbell stated that the previous bid due date had
been May 27, 2015, and the previous award date had been June 9, 2015.
Moved by Goodman, seconded by Betcher, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 15-315 approving a change
in the bid due date for Electric Services Unit #7 Crane Repair; setting June 10, 2015, as the new bid
due date and June 23, 2015, as the new date of public hearing.
Roll Call Vote: 5-0. Resolution declared carried unanimously, signed by the Mayor, and hereby
made a portion of these minutes.
ADJOURNMENT: Moved by Goodman to adjourn the meeting at 1:12 p.m.
