Siems, Florida Electric Service Co. Inc. <br />to Jim Davis dated Sept. 30, 1996 <br />2) Mark Sigmon and Debra Pero, American Lighting <br />and Signalization. Inc. to Jim Davis dated Aug. 13. 1996 <br />DATE: November 5, 1996 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />Construction of a new baseball field at Gifford Park has begun. To light the <br />ballfield, the County Public Works Dept. is acquiring four concrete poles from FPL <br />which will be surplus from the 58th Avenue utility relocation project now also <br />under construction. FPL will deliver the old poles to the park at no cost to the <br />County. <br />In order to get the best price from sport lighting contractors in south and central <br />Florida, staff contacted major sport lighting contractors and other local <br />governments that recently installed sport field lighting. Two large contractors in <br />South Florida, Florida Electric Service Co., Inc in Fort Lauderdale, and American <br />Lighting and Signalization, Inc in Jupiter. Florida, have recently bid ballfield <br />lighting jobs in South Florida. Both indicated a willingness to give the County a <br />price for the work based upon bids recently acquired by local governments in <br />Florida. The County could piggy -back these existing contracts and not have to go <br />through the bidding process independently. <br />Using this procedure, staff requested a price from three large contractors to <br />furnish materials and installation of a lighting system at Gifford Park. The <br />following bids were received: <br />Florida Electric Services Co., Inc - Not to Exceed $ 31.720 <br />American Lighting & Signalization, Inc. - $65,403 <br />NOVEMBER 12, 1996 108 <br />
