MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING — DECEMBER 9, 1991 <br />1992 CONTRACTS WITH LONG LAKE — CONT. <br />Sullivan noted that in negotiations prior to the authorization to <br />hire additional personnel, Long Lake had reduced their request <br />for additional manpower. He noted at that time they,asked the <br />price for less -personnel there was no contract in effect, <br />therefore making it fair game to renegotiate the amount of <br />additional personnel. He stated at the Long Lake Council meeting, <br />Long Lake asked him if he would seek to do things as cost <br />effective as possible, and he indicated to them he would. Long <br />Lake also asked if additional manpower and time was required, <br />would Orono notify them prior to the service, and he indicated he <br />would do that. <br />Jabbour noted the Long Lake budget is tight, as is everyone's, <br />and he just wants to make sure that Long Lake will be able to.pay <br />its portion for service. <br />Sullivan felt it would be beneficial to have :multi —year <br />contracts. <br />Callahan noted the previous year's contract provided that after <br />the expiration of the contract, Long Lake would pay extraordinary <br />costs whether or not they terminated. The current.. contract <br />provides that Long Lake pay only if they terminate. He_ stated <br />that the City of Orono has incurred these extra costs because of <br />the contract, and he felt Long Lake should pay no matter who <br />terminates the contract. <br />Moorse indicated he thought the language had been changed and <br />will review the contract again. <br />It was moved by Callahan, seconded by Jabbour, to adopt the <br />contract with the appropriate amendments, as discussed at <br />previously during the meeting.
