AMEND BID AWARD OF DECEMBER 16 1991/ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 15-1992 - DISPOSAL OF OBSOLETE VEHICLE It was noted that the Board is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Phil St. Clair advising that due to an error in the mileage reading of a vehicle that is to be traded -in to Gates Chevrolet, the amount of their bid for the purchase of a new 1992 Chevy one ton cab/chassis needs to be amended to reflect a reduction in their trade-in price from $5,000.00 to $3,2000.00. This reduction now makes the total bid award $14,553.02 instead of the $12,353.00 previously approved by the Board on December 16, 1991. Board Attorney Mary H. Mueller reiterated that an erroneous mileage of 93,000 miles was provided to both bidders when the actual mileage was 193,000. This error now results in a decrease in the amount bid for a trade-in. However, Gates Chevrolet Corporation is still the low bidder even with this decrease. Therefore, Mrs. Mueller made a motion that the bid award of December 16, 1991, to Gates Chevrolet for one (1) 1992 Chevy one (1) ton cab/chassis be amended to $14,553.02 and that the Resolution which has been submitted be adopted.
