Both Firms had peffo.t~ed the snowplowing functions satisfactorily throughout the season. As a result Staff is recommending that both Firms again be awarded the contract for the 1990/1991 winter season. United Contracting, the successful bidder for Area 3 during the 1989/1990 winter season did not submit the lowest bids for the 1990/1991 season. Instead, low bid was received from Sacco Construction at a difference of 0.01 cents and 0.10 cents per hour less than United Contracting. Sacco Construction has not in the past performed parking lot snowplowing services for the City. However, the Firm has satisfactorily completed other construction projects city wide. Therefore, Staff are of the opinion that Sacco Construction is capable of undertaking the snowplowing functions in Area 3 as required in Contract 90-15.
