RE AWARD OF BID - Employees Group Insurance
At the request of Mr. James Donahue, Assistant City Manager Ed Ness gave a
resume of council's action on the awarding of the City of Redding Employees
Group Insurance Bid, and advised that California-Western States Life Ins,
Company was installing the plan and at present signing up the employees.
Mr, Donahue then asked what action the Council was going to take with respect
to the request of one of the brokers submitting a bid, that Ag ent of Record be '���
named, that agent to be the broker submitting the lowest bid, which in this case
would have been Mr, Donahue, or Mr. Plummer, who submitted identical bids
on behalf of the Connecticut General Life Insurance Company.
It was pointed out to council, this method could have been used, but bid specifications
did not call for this approach, and it was the opinion of the Assistant City Manager
it would be unfa-i:x .to all concerned to change the rules after bids had been awarded.
Councilman Puryear advised while letter had been referred to at a council meeting,
- there had been no discussion of it.
No action was taken.
