Quote:the low bid clause should not really come into play here, unless you have a specific contract signed with the city for that particular type of apparatus, which la city has no contract tsigned with anyone for trucks, used to be the defunct alf. the fd can also ask the city council to throw out the low bid clause or as most cities are doing now ask that the whole bidding process be waived in order to allow them to go with a specific vendor that meets all requirements

Going back to the original point, I wonder who complained? With the demise of ALF, there leaves a few contenders.
