<br />Adopted: April 30, 1973
<br />By: Board of Public Works
<br />South Bend, Indiana
<br />s/ William J. Richardson
<br />s/ James V. Barcome
<br />s/ James R. Seitz
<br />Mr. Richardson explained that the E.D.A. will participate 1001% only in the lowest
<br />of the two pavement alternates. Since the bids came in so far below the engineer-
<br />ing estimates, E.D.A. has given some indication that they will participate in
<br />Pavement Alternate B. Even if they don't, there is sufficient money available in
<br />the funding for the City to go ahead with the concrete pavement. Mr. Gerald Phipps,
<br />of Clyde E. Williams & Associates, explained that the two deductive alternates are
<br />mulching and a cul de sac street, which is the extension of New Foundation Drive.
<br />The recommendation is that, in order to get the concrete pavement and keep the cost
<br />in budget, these two items would be deleted and the contract awarded. 1.
<br />AWARDING OF BID - R & S 51 - SAMPLE STREET
<br />The Board received a recommendation from David A. Wells, Assistant City Engineer,
<br />that the Rieth-Riley Construction Company should be awarded the bid on Project R
<br />& S 51, Sample Street on their low bid of $172,845.40. Upon motion made, seconded
<br />and carried, the bid was awarded to Rieth-Riley.
<br />REQUEST FOR BIDS - KEY CONTROLLED FUEL DISPENSING SYSTEM
<br />The Board received a request from William J. Richardson, Director of Public Works,
<br />to advertise for bids for a key controlled fuel dispensing system on May 4 and
<br />11, with bids to be received on May 14, 1973. Upon motion made, seconded and
<br />carried, the request was approved,
