Borough staff announced that anyone wishing to submit an offer to buy the McInness property must attend a mandatory pre‑bid meeting at 10 a.m. on April 8 at the site, 1020 Manor Street. Sealed bids will be opened publicly on May 18 and council anticipates evaluating proposals and taking action at its May 26 meeting.
Council discussed the public bid‑opening process and the need to form either a small evaluation committee or use full council to score proposals against the RFP rubric. Staff said bids must be opened publicly and evaluated per the published scoring criteria; council discussed whether the evaluation should occur in an executive session or by a smaller scoring team that would report back to full council.
Council emphasized the importance of having evaluation criteria and scoring guides available to members before the bid opening so staff, council and bidders understand how proposals will be assessed.
