restrictive and comparable products of other manufacturers will be considered. However, bidders are

cautioned that any deviation from specifications must be pointed out in their bid.

DEVIATIONS: Any deviations from specifications and requirements herein must be clearly pointed out by

COST ADJUSTMENTS: The cost for all items as quoted herein shall remain firm for the contract period

event the City does not wish to accept the adjusted costs and the matter cannot be resolved to the

satisfaction of the City, the contract will not be renewed and the City will rebid the contract.

Any contract extension is subject to the continuation of usage and the appropriation of funds.
