site and developed project specifications to construct a chainlink fence around the perimeter,
with an electrically -operated gate. Persons wanting to use the site will be directed to the
Recycle Center. This will allow the Recycle Center staff to control what is being deposited at
the site. Fence fabric salvaged from the Wastewater Treatment Plant project will be utilized,
and the contractor will provide posts and rails, gates and the labor for the installation. Quotes
were requested from five contractors and were received from three. The low quote was received
from Ace Fence Co, Tulsa, OIL, in the amount of $5503. Dr Bode moved, seconded by
