SOUTH BEND PUBLIC UTILITIES <br />224 North Main Street <br />P.O. Box 1714 <br />MICHAEL L. VANCE <br />Director of Utilities <br />Mrs. Beverlie Beek <br />President <br />Common Council <br />City of South Bend <br />Dear Mrs. Beck: <br />CITY ®f SOUTH BEND <br />ROGER O. PARENT, Mayor <br />COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 <br />March 9, 1983 <br />219/284.9322 <br />There will be presented at first reading of the March 14, <br />1983 Council Meeting an ordinance approving the contract between <br />the Board of Water Commissioners and Gates Chevy World for the <br />purchase of (3) three vehicles to replace existing equipment at a <br />cost of $19,556.19. <br />If you will recall the Council approved an ordiance of a <br />similar nature at a'.previous meeting this year. That ordinance in <br />fact was intended to replace the same three vehicles. At that <br />time the Board chose to award to Basney Ford based on previous <br />bids taken by the Board of Public Works. After the Council's <br />ratification of that contract, Basney Ford found that due to Ford's <br />stopping production of the Fairmont they cannot provide the vehicles <br />previously approved. <br />As a result, the Board of Water Commissioners advertised and <br />accepted bids on the same replacement units. I'm asking that the <br />Council now pass this ordinance approving the replacement contract <br />between the Board and Gates Chevy World for the replacement of <br />these units. <br />If you have questions, please feel free to contact my office. <br />Sincerely, <br />Michael L. Vance <br />Director of Utilities <br />MLV /mtw <br />
