Damages Sought Over Muscatine School Contract Decision
H O Schroeder a local contractor seeks 810000 in district court against the Muscatine Independent School District after his bid for a high school addition was overlooked. He claims proper bidding procedures were not followed as the board chose Burlington’s lower clay tile contract over Schroeder’s alternate bid covering both floors. The suit follows the board’s decision to use clay tile and Hunzinger’s bid as lowest for that material. Schroeder contends he was legally the lowest responsible bidder and that Burlington’s bid was not competitive.
