Mr. Kooken
| think it’s the nature of the job.
Mayor Donchess
The person that could explain this best is Lisa Fauteux, Director of Public Works and she is on vacation this
week. We could wait for a full explanation Alderman Siegel.
Alderman Siegel
No, we have a sole bidder and we don’t want our sole bidder not to do it.

ON THE QUESTION
Alderman Siegel
The original contract was for a little over $5,000 for the exact same thing and now we’ve tacked on $12,000;
what’s changed?
Mayor Donchess
They are coming forward with a significant written report that will not only explain the criteria by which they
have evaluated all of the streets but will list the streets and each street and what condition it is in and make
recommendations which will all be presented in a single report. This addition was necessary for the
preparation of this written report which everyone on the Board of Aldermen and the Board of Public Works will
get a copy of.
