He <br />reviewed the proposal from Landform. <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen stated that he will oppose this proposal because the bid was vague and <br />just received today. He noted that he is an advocate of a bidding process, which wasn't done in <br />this case. He stated that he is not in opposition because he believes the firm is inadequate, but <br />because the process was not followed correctly. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey stated that he is disappointed that Landform made a presentation <br />yesterday to certain people and he was not asked to participate. He agreed with Councilmember <br />Dehen that he has nothing against Landform, but because he was left in the dark, and there was <br />no process followed, he will oppose it. He noted how much time the City took to discuss the <br />towing contract when the City would not even spend any City dollars. He stated that he is <br /> <br />City Council!
