BODY

SUMMARY STATEMENT OR LEGAL NOTICE LANGUAGE:

 

Per WCC 3.08.100(A), the Health Department, Solid Waste Division requests approval for the County Exeuctive to enter into a contract for the purchase and installation of a modular building to replace the dilapidated trailer/office located at the Point Roberts Transfer Station. RCW 39.04.280(1)(b) provides a special market conditions  exception to bidding requirements. Because the modular building is a manufacturer-rebuild and is offered at a significantly lower cost than a comparable new building, the Prosecutor’s Office supports this purchase as a special market condition. The total cost of the modular building including freight and labor costs for installation and set up, and sales tax is $65,179.75
