Staff <br />has written their recommendation that the bid award be made <br />contingent on their getting the qualification and would like to <br />extend that recommendation to include that if the necessary <br />license is not in place within two weeks, that we award to the <br />second low bidder. <br />Commissioner Bird inquired what license they are short of, <br />and Mr. Boone informed the Board that the problem is that they <br />are in an in-between state on the general contractor's license <br />10 <br />
