The board will trade in three of its existing lawn mowers upon purchase of the new models Trustee Bill Straughan voted against the motion ne of his reasons was that the Spramotor bid was almost $5000 above the low bid of Cal Madill The Cal Madill submission was deemed not to meet tender specifications Dave Harvey superintendent of maintenance and operations said that the four Bolens machines proposed by Cal Madill had 54inch cut The board wanted 60inch cut We have found this to be the most economical size We have also had numerous problems with the Bolens machine we now have llavrvey said Straughan said he didnt feel it was fair to judge Bolens on the basis of one machine owned by the board and he objected to awarding the tender to an out ofvtown firm over local one with lower bid llis
