Explanation
The purpose of this legislation is to authorize the Director of Public Utilities to modify an existing contract for Specialized Machining & Fabrication Services for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage, in order to continue scheduled services to the Division.
The Director of Public Utilities opened formal bids on September 5, 2007 and one (1) bid was received. The contract was awarded to Uni-Facs Steel Works, LLC of Columbus, Ohio.

This second and final planned modification is being processed in accordance with the original contract specifications. The contract will be in effect to and including April 8, 2011.
