While Brookwood Homes had a slightly lower bid than Whitaker Homes, the evaluation <br />process determined that Whitaker was better qualified. Staff recommends Whitaker Homes because <br />they were higher rated than Brookwood and only slightly more expensive. <br />BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: <br />EXHIBITS: <br />Resolution; Rating sheets; RFP ad; Bid specs; Whitaker proposal <br />ACTION: <br />BUDGET INFO: <br />❑ Financial Report ❑ Minute Order <br />Expense <br />$ <br />❑ Department Report ~ Resolution <br />gudgeted Amt. <br />$ <br />❑ Presentation ❑ Ordinance <br />Y7'D Actual <br />$ <br />❑ Public Hearing ❑ Other <br />Acct.
