Commissioner Adams pointed out that the bid of Tri -Sure Corp. was within 5-10% <br />of fhe lmv bid and Tri -Sure has done several water installation projects for the Count\. Shc <br />recalled that Felix had some code enforcement problems in the past. For these reasons she <br />would move Tri -Sure if the first motion was withdrawn. <br />Chairman Ginn thought the County needed to be going to a ``2 -step bidding process' <br />where we evaluate the company on their past performance for the County and then open the <br />bids. If they do not pass the first step, they would not be included in the second step. She <br />advised she will be bringing that procedure back when she is able to make a motion. <br />Commissioner Adams has heard that Felix has done a good job in prior road paving <br />for us, so she did not know whether they have bid any of the County's projects directly or <br />if there have been any problems. <br />General Services Director Thomas W. Frame was not aware of any issues that may <br />have come up. <br />Vice Chairman Stanbridge recalled there had been a existing problem when Felix <br />took over another job; but she thought that had been corrected. She had not heard from <br />Public Works anything negative about their work. <br />Commissioner Macht was concerned about not accepting a low bid; he felt there has <br />to be a reason to reject the low bid. He was willing to withdraw his motion and defer a <br />decision to their next meeting for further research. <br />Commissioner Macht WITHDREW his motion; Vice Chairman <br />Stanbridge WITHDREW her second. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED BY Vice <br />Chairman Stanbridge, the Board unanimously deferred the <br />matter to their next meeting.
