When it was suggested- that the April motion be rescinded and all tenders be considered, Mr. Elliott asked what was meant .by all ten- ders. "As far as I'm concerned I don't recall any mention of re -ten- dering." Turnberry representative Nelson Underwood, however, suggested that the board did, "to a certain degree", know about the new fig- ures. Hesaid some members of the board decided that if Superior made its offer firm until the end of May, "then, perhaps, it's a good idea to go ahead and get some other tenders." Prefacing his remark with a plea to not be quoted in the newspaper "because we're not paying as much", East Wawanosh representa- tive Fred Meier urged the board to "at least listen to" the fire chief. "He's the guy who knows what he's talking about." Mr. Gaunt then: introduced the four quotes, including those from Superior and Hub. The others were from C. E. Hickey Ltd. of Hamilton at $198,185, and a quote of $160,398 from Amertech of Woodstock. Included in the Hub quote, Mr. Gaunt said, are conditions which allow for payment of the truck to 1?e made next year instead of in 1989. "They're saying it will take five to seven months to get a chassis and then another 120 working days before delivery here in Wingham. " ' By the calculations of Mr. Cox, that makes an estimated delivery date of May or June 1990. One, he feels, his council could accept.
