fittings as opposed to copper, which was specified.

split sleeves, tees, pipe and adaptors. Upon request from the
user departments these items will be dispensed. staff has evalu-
ated the low bid and finds that it meets city specifications.

supply, Inc. at specified unit prices plus tax, as the lowest and
best bidder.
