The proposa]. did rxat <br />vary from the specifications. <br />r�long with �the sealed bicl subzni.tted by the iow bidder <br />wras an adverti.sing brochure descr�.bing some of their <br />apparat�s. The descriptian of some of theix apparatus <br />in the advertising b�ochure va�ied �rom the bid proposal_ <br />Since the advertis.ing brochure did no�t canstitute part-of <br />the �aw bidder's prap�sal it is oux opinion. that the �ow <br />bidder did nat modi�y his bid. <br />Naturally, the general rule a�s that after bids have been <br />received and opened by the City no material change may be <br />nzade in any bid.
