Recommendation
Staff recommends award of Bid 10-48 for Plumbing Services and approval

automatic option to renew unless cancelled for four additional years. This
bid is utilized by all departments on an as needed basis. Plumbing projects
that are $20,000 or over require separate Council approval.
Discussion
Bids were received from two vendors. Multi -Craft Contractors Inc. is the
lowest bidder. Multi -Craft Contractors Inc. has been the low bidder and
awarded the contract for the last two contract terms. They are familiar with
the City's buildings, policies and invoice and payment procedures.
