D. 1991 FIRE DEPARTMENT AUDITS/1993 BUDGET
City Manager McGuire reviewed the reasons that the 1991 audit of Pa~kside Fire Department
had not been completed and stated that he had two issues to discuss about the 1991 audit:
Should Parkside's C.P.A. or Peat Marwick be hired to complete the audit? and Does the
Council want to authorize payment of an invoice by Parkside's accountant for services
associated with the audit? Following considerable discussion, it was the consensus of the
Council that the City Council has not changed its previous intention of having the City's
auditor complete a 1991 audit of all Fire departments and related funds, and the City Manager
was directed not to pay the invoice at this time.

City Manager McGuire presented a letter from a consultant, Mr. Bill Bruen, which detailed the
services he would provide and the associated fee in drafting a 1993 contract. There was
some discussion about different ways of drafting the contract and negotiating with the Fire
departments. Councilmember Rossbach moved that the Mr. Bill Bruen be hired to draft a
performance based 1993 contract using the City's current contract and Council input for a fee
not to exceed $3.000 and return the draft to the Council for discussion as soon as possible.
The motion was seconded by Councilperson Juker and was approved.
