The City has been "piggybacking" with the City of Brewer's bidding for the last three years. Through this process we are obtaining excellent pricing (FY 12, the City paid $64.33 per ton under the State of Maine bid, for FY 13 the City paid $58.77 per ton under the City of Brewer bid and the proposed price for FY 14 and FY 15 was $52.41 ton). International Salt has proposed a contract renewal with a 3% increase to $53.98 per ton. Last year several communities and MDOT, whom were utilizing other rock salt vendors, ran out of stock and had difficulty obtaining more. The City has had excellent experience with International Salt over the years. On June 2,. 2014, the Finance Committee reviewed and approved staff recommendation to renew the contract to International Salt Company at $53.98 per ton. The contract award. recommendation must be reviewed approved by the City Council as it is over $100,000.
