CITY OF COLTON <br />AGENDA REPORT <br />For Council Meeting of September 17, 1991 <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />FROM: RICHARD E. ACEVEDO, Finance Directo <br />SUBJECT: Award of Bid for Wire & Cable to WESCO Date: <br />Utility in the Amount of $8,892.39 <br />BACKGROUND <br />August 29, 1991 <br />Various sizes of wire and cable are purchased into Electric Stores <br />inventory for use by the Electric Department on an as required basis. <br />When the inventory reaches a pre-set review point or material is needed <br />for a specific project, the Storekeeper submits a requisition for <br />the required items. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On August 1, 1991, General Services advertised for sealed bids for some <br />of these requirements. Bid opening was held at 3:30 p.m., August 26, <br />1991, in the General Services office. Two bids were received and evalu- <br />ated. A Bid Analysis is attached showing price and delivery terms. <br />The recommended vendor's price is underlined for each item. <br />The City's Electrical Engineer has determined that the specification <br />for Item #1, Wire #8 AWG, copper, 6000 Volt, Polythylene Streetlight <br />cable is no longer the most appropriate for the City's use, and is <br />therefore recommending that we reject all bids on Item #1 only. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends that all bids be rejected for Item #1 and bid award <br />be made to WESCO Utility for Items #2-4 in the amount of $8,892.39. <br />Report Prepared by: Mary J.
