Council rejects CDBG‑MIT construction bids as over budget
Summary
Freese & Nichols recommended rejecting both bids for the CDBG‑MIT GLO 22-085-023-D264 construction project because they were significantly over budget; the council voted to reject both bids unanimously.
Eric Engelskirchen of Freese & Nichols told the council that bids received for the CDBG‑MIT GLO 22-085-023-D264 construction were substantially above the project's budget and recommended that the city reject both bids. Council Member Deal moved to reject the bids, Council Member Harris seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
Engelskirchen told the council the reason for the recommendation was budgetary: "they are both significantly over budget." The council recorded no alternative funding or rebid timeline in the minutes; the action recorded in open session was limited to rejection of the bids and does not itself authorize rebidding or contract award.
