INTER- OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Peter M. Callinan FROM: Melvin P. lone
City Manager Administrative ss .
RE: Outfield Fencing for the
Rohnert Park Stadium DATE: February 23, 1981
At City Engineer Brunt's direction, quotations were solicited by telephone for
the installation of outfield fence framing at the Rohnert Park stadium. Dr.
Leonard will be providing the plywood covering for the fence. The frame will
be in accordance with the attached specifications. Time constraints forced us
to seek telephone quotations rather than going through formal bid process.
The results were as follows:
American Lumber /Santa Rosa
T & D Drilling & Fence Co.
Alpine Fence
Levine Fence
Price Per Food: Total
$7.00 /foot $ 4,830
$7.10 /foot $ 4,899
$16.50 /foot $11,385
$15.90 /foot $10,970
The difference between the two sets of quotations caused me to confirm the first
two prices. Both vendors confirmed their quoted prices and will send letters
tomorrow.
Although both gave references, American Lumber's reference is calling me back
tomorrow.
Recommend award of contract to American Lumber in the amount of $4,830 contin-
gent upon a satisfactory report from their reference... unless we can negotiate
a lower price from another fence company.
