D. Authorization To Reject Borchard Park Parking Lot And Skate Park Bids, Move Construction Window To November 2000,January 2001, And Issue As Separate Bid Packages Sorensen reviewed the bid process, said that the bids were considerably higher than the budgeted amount of the project, and discussed possible reasons. He recommended a rejection of all bids, the construction window be moved to November 2000 -January 2001, and the project be divided into individual bid packages, which, he said, would likely result in lower bids by clearly defining limits of work, keeping the specialty construction separate from the more standard construction, and furnishing time for possible grant opportunities to be identified. It was moved by Gibson, seconded by Holt, and carried 4-0 to reject the bids, move the construction window to November 2000 -January 2001, and issue the parking lot and skate park as separate bid packages.
