6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont'd performance bond is hard to secure and small contractors have this problem to hassle. If we do not have the "conditional award" then we would have to come back to the Commission and ask for a rejection to the .previous award, go back to the Common Council, and then have to go through the whole process for approval again, which would be a delay of at least si>x (6) weeks. The "conditional award" request is as noted in the letter dated December 31, 1975, to Mr. Brownell from Mr. Crighton, and included in the packet, which states: Since Newbill Construction Co. is a new contractor under the Community Development Program, we are requesting a conditional award subject to that company fulfilling all contract requirements. In the event that this firm is unable to comply with these requirements, we are requesting that these contracts be awarded to the following contractors listed as the next lowest bidders: #11 /SECD* $2,271.38 #12 /SECD* 3,366.20 #15 /SECD* 4,727.28 #18 /SECD ** 5,500.00 Combs Decorating & Construction Combs Decorating & Construction Combs Decorating & Construction Madison Builders, Inc. ( *) Subject to approval by Legal Counsel only. ( * *) Subject to Common Council and Legal Counsel approval. At the consent of the Commissioners, the prior motion was rescinded, and the motion is amended to read, that the above contracts, (Nos. ll /SECD, 12 /SECD, 15 /SECD and 18 /SECD)be awarded to Newbill'Construc- tion Co.,in the bid amounts as noted above by Newbill, as a "condi- tional award" subject to that Company fulfilling all contract re- quirements; in the event the firm is unable to comply with these requirements, the contracts are to be awarded to the next lowest bidders, as are noted above in the indented quote, [Contract #18 in this case would require Common Council approval also.] All are subject to Legal Counsel approval, and the President and Secre- authorized to execute said Contracts.
