I Don’t Want to Fly Anymore After Hijack Experience

Sundt Wins Phoenix Water Plant Contract Challenge
The city awarded a 13 million dollar water treatment plant contract to M M Sundt Construction Co of Tucson after alleging an illegal award to Zirn Engineers of Los Angeles. Sundt claims its bid was within 1 percent of Zirn, arguing state 5 percent preferential law favours an Arizona contractor. Rozar deemed Zirn contract null and void while Patrick Burke pursued a Supreme Court action to validate the Zirn award. The Val Vista plant was financed by revenue bonds, not public funds.
