Pulaski refers multiple bid packages — City Commons mowing, Maplewood Cemetery maintenance and tank rehab — for further review

The Pulaski board opened several procurement bid packages and directed staff to conduct further review rather than award work immediately.

For City Commons grass-cutting, staff read several bids and recommended referring the bids for staff review and comparison with last year’s pricing. A motion to refer the City Commons bids to staff for review and to report back at the next work session was made by 'mister Miles' and seconded by 'mister Massey'; the roll-call recorded primarily 'Aye' votes with 'Henry' recorded as a 'No.'

Bids for Maplewood Cemetery maintenance were opened and included proposals from Newnan's Land Maintenance ($7,500 per month) and several other vendors that supplied annual or monthly figures. Board members discussed contract details, the need to verify vendor references and addresses (one bid lacked a clear address), and whether to proceed under a multi-year arrangement. The board voted to have staff check references and bring recommendations back to a future work session.

For water-tank rehabilitation, staff and the engineering consultant outlined the two-part scope (cleaning/pressure wash for the magazine tank and sandblasting/recoating for the small twin tank). Multiple contractor bids were announced; the board moved to refer the bids to the project's engineer for technical review and recommendation before any award.

Across the procurement items the board emphasized verifying bid completeness, confirming vendor references and addresses, and ensuring contracts match advertised specifications before awards.
