Mr. l\ilays: That's all I wanted to make sure of.
Mr. Mayor: We have a motion to approve on the floor. All in favor, please vote
aye.
lVlotion carries 10-0.
Mr. Mayor: Madame Clerk?
The Clerk: Yes, sir?
Mr. Mayor: If we could, the Sheriffs time is valuable and I'd like to try to
accommodate him if we can. If we could move to item 41. He's here for that item. If we
could dispose of that, and then he can go back on patrol.
The Clerk:

PUBLIC SAFETY:
41. Discuss/approve bid award of Sheriff's Department Uniforms. ~o
recommendation from Public Safety Committee August 13, 2001)
Mr. Mayor: Mr. Kolb, are you going to handle this or do you have a surrogate
here today? '
Mr. Kolb: I will introduce the item. Mr. Mayor, members of the Commission,
you have before you essentially two options in which to award bids for Sheriff's uniforms
for the next two years. In your packet over the weekend you received information
relative to the official bids that we received from this particular item. The
recommendation or the bid award indicated that Command should be awarded the
Section A of the bids, and that Sidney's should be awarded Section B of the bids. As we
began to look closer at the bids, to me there was some confusion as to how this was
arrived at. And I looked at the [inaudible] and they became someone questionable. Then
we did a more in-depth analysis and look at the unit prices. And the unit prices is what I
gave you earlier for each items that is being bid. And the two bids, or the two
tabulations, somewhat differ from the official bid that was originally made. This bid has
been rejected at least once. I do not believe that rejecting this bid a second time is in the
best interest of the municipality. Therefore, I'm bringing it to the Commission for your
decision as to which want you want to bid this. My recommendation't and I believe the
Sheriff would concur with me, is to bid it on the basis of the unit prices, which is the
slieet that is attached, that was gIven to you earlIer.
Mr. Mayor: So your recommendation, George, is to go with who in Section A
and who in Section B?
Mr. Kolb: Both Section A and B would be awarded to Sidney's.
