Agency Attorney Boogaard stated that within the last one or two Agency meetings, the Agency conditionally gave a bid award to Shidel Company for construction work in the Otay Town area.

They have been advised this morning that the contractor was protesting the condition of having to delay the work for sixty days contending that it wasn't in the bid specs and she was ready to commence operation immediately. Before the Agency could deliberate on waiving that condition, he felt it was necessary for the Agency to find that the matter arose after the posting of the agenda and could not reasonably wait until the next meeting. Her bid would expire between now and the next Agency meeting.
