Prior to a Motion being Made, Councilmember Morris spoke to the cost of the subject display cases and attempted to provide clarification regarding bid information provided to him by Aviation General Manager Benajamin DeCosta. However, Ms. Muller informed the Council that she had the cost information in her office and needed time to retrieve it in order to provide more accurate clarification. Discussion was consequently deferred. Later, when discussion regarding 98-R-2020 resumed, Ms. Muller provided the requested clarification and the Law Department was asked to give an opinion regarding the proper negotiation process. City Attorney Susan Langford responded accordingly and stated, for the Record, that under City Code, an authorized person can negotiate the higher proponent down in RFP situations.

Ms. Muller added that the opinion should also reference what the Code says regarding such a situation and that once the opinion is provided, a conversation needs to be had regarding the legalities and ethics of such behaviour. Ms. Langford asked that Ms. Muller clarify her question. She further noted that she was not aware that Ms. Muller had asked for an opinion in the past but, once clarification is provided, she would gladly provide a written opinion. Council President Pro-Tem Jim Maddox intervened and stated that Ms. Muller should put her question to Ms. Langford in writing so that she could respond accordingly. There was no further discussion on the matter.
