Prescott City Council Study Session —August 15, 2006 Page 9 property; Planning and Zoning Commission voted unanimously to approve the preliminary plat and the rezoning with a suggested change to the preliminary plat that the flag lot created in the northern part identified as "not a part of this plat" be identified as Lot No. 5 with public access from the cul-de-sac. There were no questions from Council or the audience. J. Approval of replat revising a portion of Tract C, Prescott Airpark, Unit II, creating two lots from one, located at 6737 Corsair (RE06- 022). Community Development Director Tom Guice explained the replat would create two one-half acre lots from one one-acre lot at the Prescott Airpark, Unit II and was zoned Industrial Light. There were no questions from the Council or the audience. K. Adoption of Resolution No. 3761 rescinding Resolution Number 3582 and adopting a new resolution establishing and adopting a Council policy establishing application and review fees for annexations. Community Development Director Tom Guice explained the revised new Section 3 in the proposed resolution would ensure continuity with Proposition 400. Councilwoman Suttles asked those involved with Proposition 400 if this worked for them and Jack Wilson commented all they wanted was transparency and openness of the process. L. Award of contract with Empire Machinery in the amount of $44,327.26 to repair the D-9 Bulldozer for Solid Waste. Assistant to the City Manager Laurie Hadley explained a bulldozer that had been used at the landfill and was now used for maintenance of the landfill as well as jobs at the transfer station, was 17 years old and recently had an engine malfunction. It was the only bulldozer the City owned and staff wanted to repair it instead of replacing it as a new one would cost between $850,000 and $1 million. Bids were received for repairs and the low bidder was Empire Machinery in Phoenix; the quote included transportation to and from their facility in Prescott as the City had no way to transport the machine. Councilman Blair asked if there was a warranty and Ms. Hadley replied there was a one-year warranty and the City would buy a service agreement for ongoing maintenance.
