SOUTH BEND PUBLIC UTILITIES <br />224 North Main Street <br />P.O. Box 1714 <br />MICHAEL L. VANCE <br />Director of Utilities <br />CITY of SOUTH BEND <br />ROGER O. PARENT, Mayor <br />COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 <br />Mr. John E. Leszczynski <br />President <br />Board of Wastewater Commissioners <br />City of South Bend <br />Dear Mr. Leszczynski: <br />April 26, 1982 <br />219/284 -9322 <br />I have compelted my review of the bids submitted to the Board <br />of Wastewater Commissioners for motor equipment advertised for the <br />Division of Sanitation. Following are my recommendations to the <br />Board based on that review and the specifications. <br />(A). 26,000 GVW Cab & Chassis. Award to Shamrock <br />Ford at a low bid price of $17,133.84. <br />(B). 2 each 10,000 GVW Cab & Chassis. Award to <br />South Bend Gates at a low bid price of <br />$14,750.00. (Note: It is our understanding <br />that these vehicles are bid with the 292 <br />cu. in. 6 cylinder engine. <br />(C). Solid Waste truck - alternate bid. Award to <br />Ries Equipment Co. at a cost of $35,245.00. <br />I've recommended the low bid in all instances with the exception <br />of the vehicle for solid waste collection. Mr. Peck has inspected <br />this vehicle and feel that for the dollar spent, buying this 25 yard <br />used unit is a wise investment. Equipment of this nature would <br />normally cost in excess of $75,000.00 because these particular units <br />were built on heavy duty units. If you have further questions, please <br />feel free to contact my office. <br />Sincerely, <br />/ "X� <br />Michael L. Vance <br />Director of Utilities <br />MLV /mtw <br />
