144.
After the opening of the bids, the Chairman announced to the
bidders that the Commission would consider the bids and have the
engineers for the Commission review them.
The matter of the failure of Worthington. Corporation to submit
an alternate bid price, for the allowance or a deduction in the
event the Commission did not require one 25 HP pump was fully
discussed and it was determined that this bid would not qualify
as to the matter of the alternate bid as requested. It further
appeared that the delivery time as submitted by this bidder was
beyond the reasonable amount which the Commission could fit into
its building program; and the engineer further stated, after
examining this bid, that there was a failure to submit proper
perf ormanee data.
After due consideration of all matters involved, Member Clinton
Tracy gloved that the alternate bid of Goodin Company, 525 North
Third Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55401, in the amount of
$7,074.00 be accepted; subject to the Engineer's check of
performance data; which motion was seconded by Member H. W.
Filk, and upon vote being taken all members voted in favor of such
motion and no Member voted in opposition thereto, and motion was
declared unanimously carried.
