Votes at a glance: salt contract, road materials and an IT subscription approved
Summary
The Finance Committee approved a one‑year salt contract with Mid Atlantic LLC at $85 per ton, and approved a one‑year VMware support subscription with Zones LLC for $56,130.99; the committee adopted all agenda resolutions on voice votes.
CHARLESTON — On Oct. 20 the City of Charleston Finance Committee approved several procurement measures on voice votes.
Mid Atlantic LLC was awarded a one‑year, as‑needed contract for road salt at $85 per ton delivered (Resolution 25‑103). Mr. Michaud said that price is lower than last year's roughly $98 per ton and that the city received four bids.
The committee also authorized a one‑year subscription for VMware virtual server software support with Zones LLC at $56,130.99 (Resolution 25‑104). Mr. Michaud said the price increase reflects a change by the incumbent vendor, which was bought out and is now requiring annual subscriptions rather than a one‑time purchase.
