H REGULAR MEETING JULY 17, 2000 Mr. Chlebowski stated that this was not lowest bid received. The bid received from Aggregate Equipment and Supply had the operator's seat and controls fixed in the forward facing position. The specifications state dual seats or swiveling operator's station. The operator of an asphalt roller must have an operator's station with full and clear visibility both front and back as the operation requires rolling in both directions. A fixed forward station doesn't allow the operator a clear view to the rear of the machine. The specifications requires a minimum of three (3) amplitude setting, the Benford TV 1700 has only two (2). The various amplitude settings are important for proper compaction of different asphalt materials. Therefore, Mr. Gilot made a motion that the recommendation be accepted and the bid be awarded as outlined above. Ms. Roemer seconded the motion which carried.
