TownDiscussingGarbageContract
Garbage collection costs
for the town of Dunn may
take a serious jump in the
current year. Contractor
Herman Neighbors has sub- j
mitted a bid well over the
contracting price of last
year.
Proposal* by Neighbors were
discussed by the city council at
a special meeting Friday night,
reported City Manager A. B liz
zie, Jr The Dunn contractor sug
gested that he wanted a 22-month
contract rather than a yearly con
tract his time.
Neighbors expiaised, said the ci
ty manager, that he needs some
equipment and doesn't want to
take on its purchase unless he is
sure of a least two years of work '
City Attorney I. R Williams will j
investigate to see if the contract j
can be let for more than a year
at a time.
The bid from Neighbors this
year was $39,000. That was well
over last year’s bid of $31,200
Councilmen decided at the time I
to let. garbage collection out at:
private contract because it might
prove cheaper than to continue
having the city do it. City Manag
i er lizzie said the costs to the city
were then approximately $32,000
The bid of $39,000 would include 1
one item — pushing down the
trash at the dump — which was
not done under the previous con- j
tract.
Council members also decided
on Friday to award a water pipe •
contract to Harris and Watkins of;
Durham They will put in some
eight-inch and 12-inch pipe for the
city at a cost of 50 cents per foot
The contract awarded will cost
about $10,000, said City Manager
Uzzle, and represents about half
of what engineers had recommen
ded be done.
"We will do the other as money
is available,” said Uzzle.
Owner Harris, said Uzzle, told
board members that Dunn is the
only town he’d run into where it
wasn’t necessary to float a bond
issue on a job of this kind and
said that Dunn was very unusual
and fortunate to have a “pay as
you go” system worked out.
Uzzle said this was accomplish
ed by the city policy of requiring
developers to pay a considerable
portion of the cost of improve -
ments.”
The town has undertaken the
water-pipe contract in order to
satisfy requirements of fire insur
ance underwriters, who believe
Dunn's facilities are inadequate to
maintain its present insurance ra
tes.
At its regular meeting on Thurs
day night, the town board took a
number of actions on various mat
ters confronting the city, Notably,
they decided to put cemetery
maintenance into the hands of J.
A. Hardison — lowest bidder for
a ten-month period — at a cost
of $7,172.
The Dunn library, which voters
wouldn't support with a special
bond issue, will receive $650 more
than expected from town funds.
On motion of J Leon Godwin, the
town allotted this additional am
ount of the original $1205, sugges
ting the money is needed for books
relief help for librarian Janie
Whitehead, etc.
Accountant Thurman Ennis, re
j tained by the city to help improve
'its bookkeeping operations. was
given authority to proceed with
his recommendations. And the ci
ty manager was instructed to go
ahead with plans for a court office
where the court clerk will pursue
her duties in proximity to the
court-room instead of downstairs
in the clerk’s office as at present.
This stemmed from a recommen
dation by Ennis.
