In accordance with the City's emergency purchase requirements, three vendors were contracted for a quote. Two bids were received and the third company chose to "no-bid" due to workload issues. Of the bids received, Four B Paving was the lowest overall bid. The vendor can begin work as early as August 30th and have the work completed within approximately one week.
