City wrestles with 5 percent leeway policy for Ottawa bids
Ottawa residents like Fogle criticize a city rule that gives non Ottawa vendors a 5 percent price advantage, arguing it hurts Ottawa Ready Mix after investing over a million in new equipment. Mayor Blaine Finch said comments will be considered later as traffic and zoning actions move forward including street paving and a banner display permit. The council approved adding Twyman Street segment to paving plans at about 53 463 dollars, a cost sharing contract with non city residents the Bowerses, a downtown banner permit, and reappointed Joan Tyson and Richard Jackson to local energy and corrections boards.
