The civil board backs Kubiak's firing after witnesses testify under oath. Ashworth cites careful analysis of hearing testimony. Mona Pruett testified she was ordered to destroy a bid envelope to Ed Ferris Automotive Center, a claim Kubiak denies. Ferris, longtime tire contract holder, did not bid at May 21 openings and says he did not receive an invitation to bid. Two Kubiak witnesses said the bid form was on Ferris' desk and he believed the opening was a week later. Kubiak calls the board's decision disastrous to him.
