Mount Perl city council last week approved the purchase of three years’ worth of chain link fencing.
Councillor Chelsea Lane said the tender for the supply, delivery, and installation of chain link fencing was issued on May 30 and closed on June 19.
Provincial Fence Products submitted the lone bid, valued at $126,650, HST included.
“Prioritization of fence repairs is always planned to be within the operating budget for the current year,” said Lane. “It is also noted that the contract would be for the supply, delivery and installation of chain link fencing as required for a period of approximately three years, commencing after the date of award until August 31 for the first year, and then for September 1 to August 31 for each of the following two years, with the option of two additional one-year terms if agreeable to both parties.”
