The above bid was necessary to obtain a new style litter container for use on sidewalks within the several business districts oI' the City of `^lam:. The main criteria utilized in preparing the bid SpeCif iCati-ns were i) that the cortai ner be aest( etiCally _' ?;,^ (as compare.: to cur current units) anal, =) that t:ne containers be ay a..s e .;.a_ntenanc--- free as possib'_a. Concrete was found to be the best C.^.oiCe. The Ceramacor, Corp. Model .111 was the best unit found among the bids. TIn_- s is the container bid by Tradewind 'Outdoor Furniture Corporation at a price of $339 each. There was one other unit bid at a price o_ 2i7, but we did apt feel it met the demands of the business C-=munity for a stylish, aesthetically pleasing unit. Cne of the ^main disadvantages of all the other __tter containers (including the ones we currently use) is damage from vehicles. if struck by a car or truck, most cor.ta_ners are instantly destroyed. ::ne Ceramacor Model #11 is modular in design so that sections may be replaCed, �. damaagea. -his '4411 represent a sUti)stantial cost savings �:,. ,.g:oUt the total life .. ...e conta_ r r .:.e corm.gated sides :: ,,anis concrete ccratainer all , rrevide less opperturJ.cy for graffiti and bumper strip placement.
