Wolfe Brothers Bid List Clash With Frederick City Officials
Wolfe Brothers president Jake Wolfe wrote that the city’s bid list policy is used to curb his firm’s opportunities after the firm built the College Terrace and College Avenue bridge project. The city says any contractor can bid if listed or not, and may reaward based on price and standards. The dispute centers on notification preference and past project handling by the city engineer’s office.
