Presentation

City staff recommended not awarding the wastewater pretreatment contract to the lowest bidder and instead to the second-lowest, Hughendorn, citing the contractors ongoing RO system work for the city (on time and on budget) and "best interest of the city" standards under Iowa code. Staff noted a $331,000 difference relative to a $31,000,000 project and that new information from the low bidder arrived the day before but did not change the recommendation.
