following annual amounts not to exceed:
Vendor:
Amount:
Hughes Supply, Inc. (formerly Marden Susco)
Badger Meter, Inc.
$90,000

DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency regularly performs installation, maintenance,
and replacement of residential and commercial water meters. The meters
are purchased through the Central Stores warehouse for distribution to
the Public Works Agency as needed. The contract for cold water meters
is designed to provide quality products at significant savings based on
quantity pricing.
On March 1, 2004, the City Council awarded contracts for cold water
meters to Hughes Supply, Inc., formerly Marden Susco, Badger Meter,
Inc., and Inland Water Works Supply Co. for a two-year period with
provision for three one-year renewals. All of the vendors have
performed satisfactorily during the past contract period. Hughes
Supply, Inc., and Badger Meter, Inc. have agreed to renew the contracts
without an increase in pricing. Due to a low demand for the items
provided, the contract with Inland Water Works Supply Co. will not be
renewed. Staff recommends the first renewal of the contracts with the
recommended vendors.
