Low bids on gas meters and low bid meeting specifications on the water
meters. The apparent low bid on the 518" x 314" and 314" Kent Meters
from C. C. Pipe and Supply does not meet specifications. The cases and
covers are plastic and specifications specify brass.
The 314" meter from the Neptune Meter Co. and the 11" and 2" meters
from Carlon Meter Co. do not meet specifications with their water meters.
The meter driving dogs in all are plastic, specifications specify stainless
steel or monel. Twelve bid invitations were issued and nine bids were
received. Prices have decreased an average of 10% on the gas meters and
increased 2% on the water meters since the previous contract of June,
1982. The decrease in the gas meters is the result of the National
economy creating a more competitive bid situation.
