Notable Quotes (3)
We were wondering if there was a way that we could probably cut maybe a 20 foot gap in the center of it so it' be an easier pass through.
The bid received the second time around was more in line with what staff was expecting to see for a grand total bid of just over $320,000.
It would be illegal for them to operate without the cup, but it's also not legal for them to operate in that facility cuz it is a storage area.
