Councilmember <br />Blomquist stated that he felt the City was getting a good service for <br />the cost and felt that they should continue with that service. <br />Councilmember Blomquist stated that he agreed with the arguement <br />regarding benefits of continuity and that he strongly encouraged the <br />Council to continue the relationship with DelaHunt Voto. <br /> <br />Mayor Harcus stated that he felt there were other firms just as <br />suitable and that dollars saving alone was not the only arguement in <br />looking at professional services. <br /> <br />Councilmember Janecek questioned if there were any time constraints on <br />the execution of an agreement regarding auditing services. <br /> <br />Margaret Egan noted that a delay in accepting the proposal could cause <br />a delay in the 1983 accounting cycle. Margaret Egan also noted that <br />there are some internal factors in working with new auditors that <br />would not only cause delay but also cause increase in cost due to the <br />staff not being familiar with a new auditing firm. <br /> <br />Motion by Benke, seconded by Blomquist to authorize the Mayor and City <br />Manager to execute an agreement for auditing/accounting services for <br />1983/1984 with DelaHunt Voto & Company. <br /> <br />Motion by Harcus, seconded by Blomquist to direct staff to negotiate <br />professional services contract with Lindberg Pierce Architects for <br />the fire station expansion. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried <br /> <br />Motion by Harcus, seconded by Schmidt to authorize the Mayor and <br />City Manager to execute an amendment to the purchase agremeent dated <br />May 15, 1983 between W.
