REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 26, 2000
<br />Lemont, Illinois, in the amount of $497,441.28.
<br />Mr. Littrell stated that ProForm Pipe Lining Co., Inc. did not provide the information required by the
<br />specifications to be attached to Form 96. Specifically, the specifications require submission of
<br />previous experience with the same size and type of liners being bid. The specifications also asked the
<br />bidders to submit the number of insertions that would be made for each network. ProForm Pipe
<br />Lining Co., Inc. was the successful bidder for several bidders in the 1999 Sewer Lining Project. Their
<br />performance on small diameter pipe was not satisfactory. The Engineering and sewer maintenance
<br />staff recommends that ProForm Pipe Lining Company's bid be considered non -responsive in that
<br />insufficient information was provided, though specifically requested, to evaluate the bid.
<br />The bid is divisible by network of pipe to be lined. Insituform Technologies USA has offered a
<br />discount of 4% if awarded all nine networks. That discounted price is $497,441.28, which is less than
<br />the sum of the discounted prices of the low bidders on each network and is also less than every other
<br />combination of discounted prices. Therefore, Mr. Gilot made a motion that the recommendation be
<br />accepted and the bid be awarded as outlined above. Mr. Inks seconded the motion which carried.
<br />AWARD QUOTATION - CARPETING FOR CENTURY CENTER - PROJECT NO. 100-105
<br />Mr. Gene Mikolajewski, Century Center, advised the Board that on December 11, 2000, quotations

<br />responsible bidder, Carpet Service Outlet, Inc., 1514 Mishawaka Avenue, South Bend, Indiana, in
<br />the amount of $33,443.46. Therefore, Mr. Inks made a motion that the recommendation be accepted
<br />and the bid be awarded as outlined above. Mr. Gilot seconded the motion which carried.
<br />VOID CONTRACT - DRAPERIES/CENTURY CENTER - PROJECT NO. 100-86
<br />In a letter to the Board, Mr. Michael Bernacchi, Michaelangelos, 3372 Cleveland Road, South Bend,
