The City Attorney stated that the agreement was executed sub- ject to Council's approval and it is similar to the agreements the City has had with Delray Mall before.

The City Manager reported that eight (8) resolutions authorizing improvements of Miller Park, is before Council for passage consideration. He stated that each resolution that is passed would award a contract for the work specified in the resolution. The eight improvements would total a contract amount of $100,636.56. The City has provided, in Federal Revenue Sharing Fund Allocations, a total of $86,500 for these eight purposes, which would leave $14,136.56. The $86,500 allo- cation does not include an appropriation in the amount of $23,000 for four handball courts. It is thought that these improvements that have been bid should proceed and that the City should take the additional $14,136.56 from the funds allocated for four handball courts in Miller Park and address this subject later with regard to handball c~ourts. Mr. Weekes questioned the difference in the amount of the.bi~s and suggested that the passage of Resolution No. 26-78, regarding.the~~ fence, be deferred since there was only one bid and readvertise it. Mr. Randolph questioned the bids received for the paving. He stated that both are substantially secured paving firms (Carr Soil & Sod-Driveways and Hardrives of Delray, Inc.) and it shouldn't be an $11,000 difference unless the City is going to get subquality paving from one of them. Mr. Weekes suggested that Council vote on each resolution individually.

Mayor Scheifley noted the substantial difference in the bids on this item from Campbell Construction Co. in the amount of $6,750 and Hardrives of Delray, Inc. in the amount of $19,980.
