Consider awarding WU-07-26 Rebid Liquefied Chlorine Gas to PVS DX Chemicals in the amount of $444,150 for 1-year with four 1-year extensions, and authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute all related documents (Danielle Rix)

Staff Report & Agenda Item Details

The City of San Angelo Water Utilities Department recently requested rebids for the chemical purchase of Liquefied Chlorine Gas for the Water Production Plant for use in the treatment of potable water. The respondents were also to meet certain specifications and delivery requirements. The previous bid for this chemical purchase was rejected due to an internal staff accounting error in that not enough of the chemical was requested. One bid was received and met all criteria by PVS DX Chemicals.

This motion is scored as RESTRAINS_GOVERNMENT (Impact Weight: 4.7/10). Under the Bastiat Liberty Watchdog Index, voting YES on measures that cap or reduce ad valorem tax burdens, expand taxpayer exemptions, retire debt early, enforce competitive bidding caps, or remove regulatory/zoning barriers to private property rights earns a positive Pro-Liberty score.
