Approved bids from Moates Excavation of $2,500 to demolish a dilapidated building at 2118 East Ave. and a bid of $2,200 to demolish a dilapidated building at 304 Grant Ave. The company is owned by City Council member Cory Moates. Myers, the city attorney, said there was nothing inappropriate about the action because the bidding procedure was open to everyone and Moates submitted the only bid. Moates abstained from voting on the measure. Went behind closed doors for 20 minutes under the exception to the Kansas open-meetings law for discussion of nonelected personnel. No action resulted when the public was readmitted to the meeting.
