ITEM 5: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
TO AWARD A CONTRACT FOR THE REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF
HEAT AND AIR CONDITIONING UNITS FOR THE PUBLIC WORKS
DEPARTMENT BUILDING ON EAST WEST SECOND AVENUE.
Mr Lutz said that the former PSO building is being renovated for Public Works personnel office
space and equipment storage. The renovation project includes removing the old heat pumps and
replacing them with conventional HVAC units. The project was advertised and bids were
opened on August 25th. The only bid received was from Dale & Lee's Service Inc in the amount
of $17,494. Staff recommended award of the bid. Dr Bode moved, seconded by Ms Voss, to
award a contract to Dale & Lee's Service Inc, Owasso, OK in the amount of $17,494 for the
removal and replacement of heat and air conditioning units at the public works building.

NAY: None
Motion carried 5-0.
ITEM 6: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO THE
AWARD OF A CONTRACT FOR WATER SERVICE INSTALLATIONS AND
PAYMENT FOR WORK PERFORMED UNDER SUCH CONTRACT.
Mr Roberts presented the item. He said that the OPWA approved a contract with Cunningham
Plumbing on April 16, 1998 to provide residential and commercial water service installations. In
March 1999, the staff evaluated the original contract and determined that additional installation
procedures and methods for payment needed to be included to enhance service quality. The
specifications were revised and the project once again bid out. Two contractors submitted bids,
which were opened on August 4, 1999. Based on an analysis of the bids, the apparent low bidder
is Cunningham Plumbing. Cunningham Plumbing was the service provider in FY 98-99 and
installed approximately 400 water meters. The work performed was in compliance with the
agreement criteria and is considered satisfactory. Ms Voss moved, seconded by Mr Williams, to
approve a contract for the installation of municipally owned water meters to Cunningham
Plumbing Co, Tulsa, OK, and authorization for payments in accordance with the submitted bid
schedule.
