Bidders were required to bid on various automotive parts and supplies as specified on Bid-No.F-01-15. As a result of this bid process, staff has determined that bids submitted from responding vendors were incomplete and/or over the amount budgeted for these services. Staff has determined that it is in the best interest of the City to re-issue, and that such action may result in an overall cost savings to the City } Municipal Code section 3.04.070E states that "At its discretion,the Mayor and Common Council shall have the power to reject any and all bids presented and re-advertise for bids". Staff is therefore requesting authorization to reject all bids submitted under Bid No. F-01-15, and to authorize the Purchasing Manager to revise the bid specification and to rebid for these services. RECOMMENDATION That the Mayor and Common Council approve a motion authorizing the rejection of all bids received in response to Bid No. F-01-15; and to direct the Purchasing Manager to revise the bid specification and to re-bid for these services. s r i
