6. NSW BUSINESS (Cont'd Other questions followed which Mr. Crighton answered, and the answers are summarized for the record: Two contractors bid on the house in question. One of the stipulations for this rehabi- lation program is that the tenant of the house must be the owner; he must have insurance before he can be helped. As to whether a land contract can be considered ownership; it is only when they have added an amendment to the contract. The amendment is an aspect to be used under the LaSalle Park Program, the Redevelop- ment Code Enforcement Programs, and in essence becomes the fore- closure period in the form of 30 days to 90 days, and it also states that the seller has the title to that property. In other words, we are not dealing with someone who is buying the house on land contract, or someone who is also buying other houses on land contracts. We cannot help tenants under this Program- -that would come under the Substandard Building Department. Under the Southeast Community Development Program, the owner must be living in the house. Mr. Caesar asked if the house can be rented after it is rehabilitated, and Mr. Criahton answered in the affirmative. Brownell advised Newbill Construction Company was the low bidder on each of the above four contracts. The bid tabula- tion was included in the packets. Motion aras made by Mr. Wiggins, seconded by Mr. Donaldson and carried, to award the above contracts as noted. Mr. Crighton requested the motion to contain additional wording to show that it is a "conditional award." The Newbill Construc- tion Company is a new contractor bidding on this type of work, and the motion should contain that if the Newbill Construction Company cannot comply with the contract regulations that the contract award should go to the next lowest bidder on the contract. We have Newbill's bid bond. When the contract is awarded, then the contractor files for a performance bond.
