<br />A regular meeting of the Board of Public Works was convened at 9:30 a.m. on Monday,

<br />were reviewed and approved.
<br />AWARDING OF BID - MUNICIPAL SERVICES FACILITY BUILDING
<br />The following letter was presented to the Board:
<br />June 15, 1973
<br />Board of Public Works
<br />County -City Building
<br />South Bend, Indiana
<br />Gentlemen:
<br />In regard to the bids for the proposed storage building at M.S.F. which were re-
<br />ferred to this department for review and recommendation, we have spent consider-
<br />able time in evaluating these bids.
<br />The bids as received were all proper as to form, bid'bond and soon. However, in
<br />discussions with the Managers of the Bureau of Streets and Bureau of Municipal Ser-
<br />vices, the requirements for 14 feet wide doors and 30 feet wide bays were determined
<br />to be critical to the intended usage of this building. These requirements were
<br />clearly delineated on the plans.for the building. Three bidders, Howell Construction
<br />Company, Inc., B&G Construction Company, Inc. and Schumacher & Sons, Inc. did not meet
<br />these requirements. This resulted in the bid of H.G. Christman Construction Company,
<br />Inc. being the lowest bid which will meet the desired end result.
<br />In addition, various alternates were proposed so that the maximum amount of building
<br />could be obtained for the money which was appropriated. Therefore, we recommend
<br />that the contract be awarded to the lowest responsive bidder, H.G. Christman Con-
<br />struction Company, Inc, and that a purchase order be issued for the basic building
<br />($36,800.00) and alternate 3, two additional bays, one with doors ($9,050.00) for a
<br />total of $45,850.00.
<br />Very truly yours,
<br />s/ David A. Wells - P.E.
<br />Manager,
<br />Bureau of Administration and Design
<br />Upon motion made, seconded and carried, the Board approved Mr. Wells recommendation
<br />that the bid for the M.S.F. building be awarded to the H.G. Christman Construction
<br />Company, Inc. for a total of $45,850.00.
<br />KEY CONTROLLED FUEL DISPENSING SYSTEM - CONTINUED
<br />Mr. Stanley Przybylinski, Manager of Municipal Services, was present and asked the
<br />Board for another week's extension on his recommendation on the bids that were
<br />received last week on the key controlled fuel dispensing system. Upon'motion made,
<br />seconded and carried, the Board approved the extension.
