garbage truck had been down and would ask the Public Works
Director to make a report.
The Public Works Director stated that we had had a lot of down
time on the garbage truck and the mechanics were working over-

the dumping and loading apparatus; and they are replacing the
bearings with a heavier bearing.

Mayor Meza stated that in the executive session they were
discussing the acceptance of the low bid, as negotiated by
the staff. If we would have not accepted this tonight, we
would have had to go out and rebid, and would have taken a
process of approximately three weeks. In doing so, we would
have lost a grant of $45,000.00.. So, the staff, in order to
keep this money from evaporating out of our hands, negotiated
a bid with the low bidder, deleting certain items from the
bid, which were: -$6,000.00 for carpet; -$4,000.00 for ceiling,
-$2,500.00 for cabinets, -$3,000.00 store front, -$2,500.00
elevator shaft, -$1,000.00 electrical service - design change,
ending with a total of $51,000.00; besides that there was
-$2,000.00 for using less expensive light fixtures in the
design change, which brought it to a total of $49,000.00
negotiation bid price.
