Report from the Public Works Committee.

Following finalization of the 1976 budget, tenders have been called
for the supply of various vehicles and equipment. Summaries of the
bids received are attached hereto. The Committee recommends that the
following equipment be awarded as outlined.

Compact Pick-up Metro Motors $3,146.87

Full-size Pick-up Metro Motors $4,273.58

Single-axle Truck Rod McCallum $13,603.76
, Motors

Dump Body DEL Equipment $4,131.27

In each case above the tendered price is the Lowest Tender and
includes all applicable taxes and trade-ins.

The Committee recommends that the supply of three small cars be
awarded to Metro Motors at their tendered price of $7,697.58. This

is the second lowest bid and is for the supply of three 1976 Ford
Pinto Two-door Sedans. The lowest bid received was from Clarke
Simpkins Ltd. for the supply of three Honda Civics at a tendered price
of $7,152.95. The Committee feels that the larger vehicle and the
proximity of Metro Motors for parts and service is worth the $544.63
difference.

The approved budget allocation for the above equipment was $37,000.00
and if the supply of the vehicles is in accordance with the Committee
recomuendation the total cost will be $32,853.00 or over $4,006.00
under budget.
