They have agreed to repaint it to "meet specifications" for an additional $400. However, such a repaint is unacceptable, since it is far less durable than a factory applied paint. *Note 2: Brookdale Ford's proposal as shown above represents their base bid price of $11,460 less $1,000 factory rebate "if on at time of delivery." However, they are unable to assure the City that this rebate would still be available at the time the truck is delivered. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, that: 1. The proposal submitted by Superior Ford in the amount of $10,690.00 is hereby determined to be the lowest proposal meeting the specifications. 2. All costs for purchase of this unit shall be charged to the Public Utility Fund. 3. Existing Unit No. 638 is hereby declared as surplus property for disposal as junk. 1 RESOLUTION NO. 89 223 November 27, 1989 Date ATTEST: fi L" Clerk Mayor The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member Celia Scott and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Dean Nyquist, Celia Scott, Todd Paulson, and Jerry Pedlar; and the following voted against the same: none, whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.
