City Manager George Campbell stated that there was one correction that needed to be
made to the contract the City Council had received via email earlier in the day. The words
"Attachment SC" in the first paragraph of Page 4 would be changed to "In the Letter
Agreement ". He added that staff and the City Attorney were currently negotiating two
potential contracts with the City of Arlington — one for Operations and Maintenance (O &M)
of the City of Kennedale's water utility system (which this agreement with Freese and
Nichols would apply to) and one for the purchase of drinking water. He then requested that
if any Councilmember had requests for specific information about either of the contracts
with the City of Arlington, that they should be sent to staff as soon as possible.
