<br /> "In a previous action, you appropriated the funds for the
<br />construction of the new Broad Street Elevated Water Tank. The
<br />CIP contains a related project (Project ~936- Chautauqua Avenue
<br />Water Main Improvements) which is the extension of the existing
<br />16" water main located on Chautauqua Avenue to connect to the
<br />new tank. When the City purchased the tank site, it obtained a
<br />15 foot wide easement from the Portsmouth Port and Industrial
<br />Commission (PPIC) for the installation of this water main
<br />extension.
<br />
<br /> This water ma~n extension along with necessary pavement
<br />patching and storm drain p~pe relocation will be accomplished
<br />by the Public Utilities construction forces. The estimate
<br />prepared by the Director of Public Utilities for this project
<br />is $51,073. The Director recommends the appropriation of
<br />$56,000 for the project which would include a contingency
<br />amount of $4,927 or 9.6%.
<br />
<br /> I concur with this recommendation. With your approval of
<br />this item, the balance in the Public Utility Capital
<br />Improvements Fund will be $2,023,223."
<br />
<br /> Motion of Mr. Epperson, and seconded by Mr. King, to adopt
<br />the following ordinance and by the following vote:
<br />
<br /> "AN ORDINANCE TO APPROPRIATE $56,000.00 FROM THE PUBLIC

<br /> 93-311 - Letter from th~ City Manager recommending
<br />adoption of an ordinance amending Chapter 37 and Chapter 20 of
<br />the City Code pertaining to Vehicles for Hire.
<br />
<br /> "The ordinance governing taxicabs has been under review
<br />for several weeks. The proposed ordinance change, namely,
<br />designating a new category to be called "public vehicles,"
<br />provides for the use of Medicaid vehicles in our City. The
<br />taxicab industry is aware of the proposed change and is
<br />supportive.
<br />
<br />I, therefore, recommend your approval of this ordinance."
<br />
<br />(a) An Ordinance that will revise
<br />Chapter 20 from "Vehicles for Hire"
<br />Public Vehicles."
