To: John R. Gerhardson, Public works Coordinator <br />From: Jack Brinkhaus, Street Foreman <br />Date: January 22, 1986 <br />Subject: Bid Award - Equipment 6 Materials Bids 1986 <br />The City of Orono advertised for two successive weeks for street <br />materials and equipment rental, with bid opening at 10:00 A.M. <br />Friday, January 3, 1986. <br />The enclosed tabulation contains a complete accounting of all <br />bids received and the recommended low bidders and alternates. <br />The accepted low bids for materials are determined by <br />availability and location of materials. Traveling distance to a <br />supplier is considered a cost factor when d4termining a low bid. <br />When renting equipment with an operator, we are guided by the <br />tape, size of equipment, and a� hourly rate. It is possible to <br />award the low bid to more than .,ne contractor when considering <br />materials and equipment. In order to stimulate enthusiasm for <br />the following years work, we make sure to divide the work <br />accordingly among these low bidders. <br />In the event the low bidder is not available, the City reserves <br />the right to purchase from the next alternate. <br />I recommend that the City Council accept the bids as presented <br />for the calendar year 1986. <br />TO: Mayor and City Council ```` <br />FROM: Mark Bernhardson, City AdministratorVab <br />Forwarded Recommending approval <br />COUNCIL KETING <br />JAN 27 1986 <br />CITY OF ORONO <br />
