Councilman Greinke requested that if Council desires to rebid the item, that heavy-duty truck manufactureres be invited to bid, rather that dealers.

He commented that he was misquoted in Item 1 of the report - the statement "nail him" was made by Kathy Weil, not him; and secondly, he disputed the claim that a crime prob- lem exists, based on his experience of living next to the park- ing lot the past five years. Mr. Bruce thanked the Council for their time.
