MINUTES CITY COUNCIL SEPTEMBER 12, 1990 September 12, 1990 which addressed the bid sections for the two projects that were not awarded at the Council's August 30th 5pecial Meeting. Beckwith reported that he has rechecked the bids for Section #'s 05100, 05200, 05300, 05500 and has determined that the bid of Horizon Fabrications is low. Beckwith reported that he initially believed that the bid of Mannstedt & Son, Inc. was low, however, he was incorrect. Beckwith reported that the confusion arose since the Horizon Fabrications' bid included steel erection labor, while the Mannstedt & Son bid did not, Fahey asked the City Attorney if the City could make the switch in bid award. The Attorney asked if the contractor had been given notice of award of bid. Beckwith replied that no notice has been given. Beckwith also pointed out that his recommendation was to award the bids based on low numbers, and it has been determined that the Mannstedt & Son bid is not low.
