Communication from the Central Services Director requesting
approval of DuraMed Medical Services, Inc. for installation
of the elevator lift at the Patchen Building. Money is available
in the budget for funding of this item. Caroline Hi Tech did
not meet bid specifications, was read.
Mr. Johnson: One bid was for $26,250 and the other was
for $15,340. One vendor is here in town and the other is in
Carolina. The $26,250 vendor is a turn key type operatioll and
the other is not. We asked for a turn key operation. So I
recommend that we go with the turn key type operation as the
best bid.
Mr. Kuhlke: It appears the cheaper bid eliminated some
items. I think we need to be satisfied by asking the other
bidder to eliminate those items from his bid or you can work
up some numbers on what this really costs down here. I think
I would feel more comfortable if I knew what the cost of those
items were to determine if they were below the next bid.
Mr. Johnson: I can work up some cost figures and we can
rebid it out and have it right.
Mr. Kuhlke: I so move.
Mr. Mays: Second.
Motion adopted unanimously.
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting
was adjourned.
