Irgl 2) APPROVE BID #B1900073, DUST PALLIATIVE SUPPLY - DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC
WORKS: Mr. Turf reviewed the bids received and stated staff recommends awarding to the low bidder,
GMCO Corporation, for the total amount of $1,074,840.00. In response to Commissioner Conway, Bruce
Barker, County Attorney, explained GMCO Corporation's principal headquarters is in Rifle, Colorado, but
they also sent a letterhead which includes a Windsor, Colorado, address. Mr. Barker stated he was
unable to locate any documentation with the name GMCO Corporation with the Weld County Clerk and
Recorder's Office. Mr. Barker stated the Board will need to ask GMCO Corporation if they have an office
in Weld County and to recount the experience or track record of their business conducted in Weld County.
Mr. Barker stated the Board will need to determine if a business is competitive. Chair Kirkmeyer stated
the Home Rule Charter states the County Commissioners will give preference to resident Weld County
bidders. Jeremy Henderson, owner of GMCO Corporation, stated he has two employees at 207
Rockbridge Lane, Windsor, Colorado, (Weld County) and they were located at the Windsor address when
they submitted the bid. He stated there is a contract in place in Windsor for a facility that is contingent on
this bid. In response to Commissioner Conway, Mr. Henderson stated he has nine (9) employees out of
the Rifle, Colorado, office, which is their primary office. Chair Kirkmeyer reiterated the Charter states
preference must be given to a Weld County resident bidder. Commissioner Conway stated there is only
one resident bidder, EnviroTech, and based on the research Mr. Barker did, GMCO Corporation is not
registered in Weld County. In response to Chair Kirkmeyer, Mr. Henderson confirmed the facility is a
rental, but the employees who work there are residents of Weld County and if he is awarded the contract
he will have a permanent facility in Windsor, Colorado. He stated GMCO Corporation has been in
business for 55 years and there are other employees who reside in Weld County. Chair Kirkmeyer
clarified the intent of the section in the Charter and stated there are two employees residing in Windsor,
Colorado, (Weld County) and GMCO qualifies as a resident bidder. Commissioner Moreno clarified
GMCO Corporation has not established residency in Weld County. Commissioner James suggested the
Board needs to follow the language in the Charter and the criteria for establishing residency. Chair
Kirkmeyer confirmed that GMCO Corporation is a resident Weld County bidder and is the low bidder.
Tim Pike, representative of EnviroTech, reviewed the details of the contributions EnviroTech has
made to Weld County, and stated they are an established Weld County resident business.
Commissioner Freeman agreed EnviroTech is a more established business in Weld County, but stated
based on the language in the Charter, GMCO Corporation is the Weld County resident low bidder.
Commissioner Freeman moved to approve said low bid, which was seconded by Commissioner James.
Commissioner Conway stated he believes the motion does not meet the intent of the Charter and
there is a lack of commitment to Weld County from the business. He explained the provision was put in
the Charter to help local Weld County businesses; therefore, he will not support the bid.
Commissioner Moreno stated he will not support the motion and agrees with Commissioner Conway's
comments. Chair Kirkmeyer stated she will support the motion and agrees with the comments made by
Commissioners James and Freeman. She explained the Charter doesn't specify the amount of time a
bidder must be a resident, or the amount invested in thier community. Upon a roll call vote, the motion
passed three to two, with Commissioners Conway and Moreno opposed.
