Mr. Paris stated the lowest bid for the demolition and disposal is $187,500.00 from Lloyd D. Nabors. The company
was vetted and is qualified to do the work requested. Mr. Hernandez questioned the company chosen as there was a
death reported and there were other issues. Mr. Paris answered that GHD Services did not see it as an issue for Nabors
to fulfill our contract. Mr. Hernandez asked if any thought was given to companies within our community. Mr. Paris
said that the scope of work we requested does not allow us to look at local bidders. Our focus is on the lowest bidder
that meets the qualifications. Mr. Hamill asked if we had one local bid. Ms. Harris pointed out that there was nothing
in the Request stating we should look more favorably at local bidders. Mr. Paris said that Nabors would adhere to our
45 day timeline. Mr. Hernandez made a motion to approve Lloyd D. Nabors Demolition as the contractor chosen for
demolition and disposal. Mr. Hamill seconded the motion. Vote was 3 -ayes to 0 -nays.
