After review and analysis of the bids by Purchasing and Public
Works staff, it was mutually agreed that the low bidder, Canadian
Salt Co. Ltd. , Mississauga, Ontario, and T.H. Forsythe Haulage
Limited, Pickering, Ontario, be recommended for the contracts to
supply and deliver Sodium Chloride to the Municipality of
Clarington. The required funds will be drawn from the 1993/94
winter season requirements from which there are adequate funds
available. The Treasurer has reviewed the funding requirements
and concurs with the recommendation. Queries with respect to
department needs, specifications, etc. , should be referred to the
Director of Public Works.
As the frequency of precipitation increases as the winter season
approaches it is in the best interest of the Municipality to fill
the sand/salt domes as soon as possible, as wet material weighs
more and subsequently costs more. Therefore a forthwith approval
is requested.
The tendered prices of $36 . 74 per tonne for the supply of Sodium
Chloride is a five percent (5%) increase from the 1992 prices .
The tendered price of $1. 08 per tonne for delivery of Sodium
Chloride represents a zero percent ( 0%) increase/decrease from
the 1992 prices .
The Canadian Salt Co. Ltd. and T. H. Forsythe Haulage Limited
have both previously provided satisfactory service for the
Municipality of Clarington.
