6. Gasoline Pumps No bids received
Note #1: Disqualified due to bidder is an employee in the City Cleric's Office.
Under Appearance of Fairness doctrine it is inappropriate for employees in the
Clerk's Off ice to submit bids to purchase because they faci 1 itate the bid process
which includes advertising, receiving bids, discussing surplus items with
potential bidders and opening the bids.
The appearance of fairness doctrine had not been discussed with Ms. Thomas prior
to this bidding and I regret any inconvenience this may have caused her.
Note #2: Bid did not include the required check or cash of bid amount. However,
since this was the only bid received on this item, it is my recamr endation the
bid be accepted and allow Mr. Allaway to bring in payment.
(Telephone poll of councilmembers was taken and consensus was to allow Mr.
Allaway to bring in payment if he desired. Contact was made and Mr. Allaway has
submitted payment on the IBM PC #85150.
