Department:Tom F. Beck, Director, Recreation and Parks Department
Caption:Motion to approve the emergency replacement of bleachers at Warren Road
Community Center to Georgia Specialty Equipment, LLC for $42,936.00 as
per written bid number 09-524.
Background:The Warren Road Community Center is 35 years and the bleachers are the

outdated equipment.

issues, the bleachers at Warren Road be replaced as an emergency purchase.
Three (3) companies were solicited for bids. One no bid was received and
the low recommended bidder meeting specifications is Georgia Specialty
Equipment.
Financial Impact:Funds have been identified to complete this project from operating capital.
Alternatives:1. Motion to approve. 2. Move no action thus not correcting a safety issue at
this community center.

Caption:For Discussion: Limelite Café, 1137 Agerton Lane - consider extending the
probationary Alcohol License for Sunday Sales.
Background:At the January 22, 2009, regular meeting the Commission approved issuing
Limelite Café a probationary Alcohol License for Sunday Sales with the

sale of prepared foods. Limelite’s food sale percentages for the six month
probationary period are: January: 27% February: 30% March: 32% April:
