All City permits and approvals have been obtained. <br />3. "Ramsey" or "City of Ramsey" will be painted at three locations on the tank. Staff is <br /> directed to obtain a rendering of the lettering style for approval. Any logo would be an <br /> addendum to the specifications or a change order if decided after the bid is submitted. <br />4. The City will reserve the right to award to the lowest bidder of the style of tank the City <br /> deems to be in its best interests. Three separate tank styles are allowed by the documents. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski reported the Council should be aware that a logo could be added to the <br />tower.
