~ATTEST:
M. N. Sayer,
City Clerk.
Consideration was next given to the question of whether to pay full or part of s~lary to
iEugene Kendall while at camp with the Florida National Guard.
The City Attorney quoted from the State Law requiring municipalities to psy employees full
isalary while at camp for a period of l? days.
The Manager advised that Eugene Kendall had been working part time, but now that school
~was over he was working full time.
Thereupon after considerable discussion Commissioner Chase moved that the City pay Eugene
Kendall a wage based on his average wages for the past six months, while at camp with the
Florida National Guard.
Seconded by Commissioner Stemper and carried.
Consideration was next given to the proposed swimming pool.
Commissioner Dyson suggested that the City call for bids for a poured concrete pool, as he
felt that such a pool could be built at approximately the same cost as the block pool.
Thereupon after considerable discussion, Commissioner Dyson moved that the Architect, Donovan
Dean & Associates, be instructed to prepare an addendum to the plans and specifications to
include poured concrete walls with a six inch concrete walk instead of the original eight inch
iconcrete walk and that the City call for bids for both types of pools and that the date for
ireceiving the bids be postponed for a period not to exceed three weeks from the original
~date of July ll, 1949.
Seconded by Commissioner Stemper and carried.
There being no further business the meeting then adjourned.
