According to the terms and conditions of the bid, the City has the right to award a contract on the basis of best value to the City as well as responsibility of the bidder and responsiveness of the bid.
The Transportation Division has reviewed the bid submitted and recommends awarding a contract to Thomas Trucking, Inc., located in San Marcos, Texas, in the amount of $65 per hour for Materials Hauling Services and $65 per hour for Spoilage Hauling Services. The estimated annual amount of the contract is $80,000.
This is an annual contract for Materials and Spoilage Hauling Services which includes hauling of road building and related materials as well as haul-off of spoilage from construction and road building projects.
This annual contract will be effective February 27, 2017, through February 26, 2018. The total amount of the contract is estimated at $80,000; however, the estimated amount required for the remainder of FY2017 is $40,000.

Within the terms and conditions of the contract, the City has the option to extend for four (4) additional one (1) year periods. Contract extensions may be awarded administratively in the form of a letter of agreement signed by the Purchasing Manager.
