ENCLOSURES.
It is respectfully recommended that a resolution be passed
awarding a contract for abstract services with Lawyers Title
Insurance Company in the amount of $50.00 per property under the
terms, conditions, and prices as authorized in bid number 86-87-
00 for total proposed amount of $165,000.
BACKGROUND:
The Finance Department is continuing its effort to collect on
outstanding solid waste accounts. The last recourse is to file a
foreclosure suit and have the court appoint a special master to
finalize the collection. However, before filing the suit the
City must notify anyone with an interest (lien) in the property.
To determine this, an abstract or title search must be performed.
ABSTRACTORS:
The City mailed out 35 requests for bid's and received 2 bids in
response. Although diligent efforts were made to find a minority
contractor only 15 were found and none responded.
Lawyers Title Insurance Company was the most responsive bidder
and the lowest cost per property.
It is therefore, recommended that a contract with Lawyers Title
Insurance Company be approved. The funding source will be
$165,000 from the 1987-88 Finance Department operating budget,
Index Code 260301-310.
