BACKGROUND
The City went out on formal bid solicitations through Cit-E-Bid for awarding a contract for the supply of Tack Coat Emulsified Asphalt Oil used in street paving, street construction, and general repair projects for all City departments. Two submitted Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, Inc. Jackson, Ms. & Anderson Columbia, Weslaco, Tx. Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions was the lowest based on the unit cost per gallon but there is a special condition for F.O.B. plant for the purpose of low bid determination which a mileage rate of $1.00 Dollar per each mile from Public Works compound to the Vendor's plant is to be added to the unit price. Staff is recommending awarding the second lowest Anderson Columbia as the cost per gallon is less picking up material from that location. The term of this contract shall be for a period of one year and may be extended for three, additional one year periods.
