The City of Hammond Board of Public Works and Safety read three contractor quotes for the Governors Parkway Fence Project during a meeting and recorded them for information only; no contract award or vote was taken.
Board members heard a recorded quote from Northwest Indiana Fence of Valparaiso, Indiana, which the transcript records as $18,250 (the speaker also referenced $18,050). A second quote from Hammond Fence Company was read but the transcript does not clearly state the dollar amount. A third quote, from Vince Masters Inc. of Chicago Heights, was recorded as $18,612.00. The presiding member read the quotes and noted they were ‘‘for information only.’'
Officials also delayed several procedural items: the board tabled approval of the minutes until the next meeting. No formal motion to award the fence contract was made and no votes were recorded on the procurement during the session. The board moved on to matters from department heads after the quotes were read and then adjourned.
