This being the time heretofore set for the award of the bid on the Moveable Bleachers for the City Recreation Center, the Director of Public Works recommended that the bid of the Wayne Iron Works in the amount of $20,518.00 be approved. Mr. Wade stated that the bid of Marston Supply Company was lower; however, their bleachers are 4'2" wide while Wayne Iron Works are 2'll" and as the City is limited for space, he feels that the bid of Wayne Iron Works would be more advantageous to the City. The Commission discussed the matter of funds for this project, and it was decided to defer this matter for the time being. This being the time heretofore set to award the Bid on the Water Softener for the Police Department, this matter was deferred until later in the year as A. H. Kennedy's budget will not take this expenditure at the present time.

This will cost approximately $1500.00 to grade with a saving of $750.00 on the other end of the line. However, the bidders will proceed with the work at the unt price they submitted.
