tion. He said the base bid was $293,609. There were two alternates and one had to deal with
fixtures on the lighting for the flag pole. The other was in reference to a site -mounted pole for
lighting. Mashburn said the recommendation was to only approve alternate bid E-2 (flag pole
fixtures) in the amount of $1,692. He did not recommend alternate Bid E-3 (pole mounted site
lighting) in the amount of $21,588. Mashburn said he wanted to work with the City of Statesville
about this type of lighting. The revised recommended electrical amount would then be $295,301.
