Finance Committee Page 4

Alderman Deane
The contracts submitted to the Finance Committee aren’t in draft form, are they? Are they final?
Mr. Kooken
They are assumedly final but if we have any changes to a contract after it passes the Finance Committee
those are still communicated to the Finance Committee.
Alderman Siegel
The reason | said that is because it had the word “DRAFT” written across the pages.
Alderman Deane
That’s another error. Nothing should be submitted to the Finance Committee in draft form.
Alderman Siegel
Well that was part of the agenda.
Mayor Donchess
Is this a time sensitive issue?
Mr. Codagnone
It’s not really time sensitive but we had an outage in the south end when a vehicle struck one of the traffic
controllers and not only did this tower not have any back-up but also the fire station on Spit Brook Road had no
connectivity for an extended period of time.
Alderman Siegel
| am comfortable that the minor changes will be made. | would not like to see the fiber network stay any longer
without any redundancy. that was a big problem when that got cut. That really has to be fixed.
Alderman Deane
Can you approve the contract contingent upon the language changes and then pop a memo back to the
Finance Committee and let them know that it was done.
