Special City Council Meeting

The City Council will meet in a special session at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday to discuss plumbing fixtures.

This issue comes to light after a man from Ferguson Waterworks turned up at the last meeting, and wanted to know why his company was being based over for a contract to supply the city with plumbing fixtures, when they had entered the low bid.

It turns out that although Ferguson had the low bid, they were not located nearby, and had problems getting things to the city in a timely manner. The now have a location in Clifton Park, and still want the city's business.

The only item on the agenda for tomorrow's meeting is on the Account's Department agenda, which says the city will award bid to both Ferguson and competitor Vellano Brothers, Inc., who were originally selected.

How will the two companies split the contract? Your guess is as good as mine. Be there, City Council room, 4:30 p.m. Tuesday.
