There was extensive discus-sion. There was some discussion with Mr. Morris and Mr. McClure from Templeton Construction concerning the document. Mr. Davis asked for suggestions or comments be-fore the final contract is drafted. Commissioner Friend suggested that Judge Brown and Commissioner Bookter be the representatives to work on negotiating a flat fee. Mr. George Morris, from Templeton Construction, presented bids received on the Tom Green County Jail Project.
Several bids are still out.
Judge Brown made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Friend to approve the two alternates, the alternate for the planter and the alternate for limestone exterior. Judge Brown and all commissioners voted in favor of the motion. Commissioner Bookter made a motion to reject the laundry equipment bids. After some discussion, he withdrew his motion. Mr. Morris will supply additional information about the laundry equipment.
