Low Bid On Street Resurfacina

Last Friday bids were opened in
facing the streets in the twin cities.
There were three bids submitted,
the lowest being the Muskingum
Valley Asphalt & Supply company,
and the Marietta Concrete corpora
ton. The bid was $36,950. Before
the contract is let it must be ap-
proved by the federal government.
This project had previously been
advertised, but since there was but
one bid submitted, the contract was
not awarded, due to the fact that
the governments policy is not to let
a contract where there is but a sin
gle bid.
