This trailer is a very specialized, hydraulically -operated wire and cable
installation/removal unit. Although all the potential bidders had expressed a
desire to bid the unit, only the manufacturer that has specialized in utility -type
equipment like this chose to bid.
The specifications for this unit included some features that significantly
increase the versatility of the trailer. These features were not available at the
time of budget preparation in early 1990. Therefore, the funding appropriated
($35,000) in the 1990-91 fiscal year budgey does not meet the requirements for the
trailer as specified and bid.
Based on the above, it is recommended that the bid be awarded to the sole bidder
and that the appropriate funding for this purchase be augmented by $4,645.06 made
available from the recent advantageous pur.;hase of the aerial line truck.
