bid” not to be in the best interests of the Municipality, or should
the direct route to any successful bidder's location change due to
unforeseen circumstances (i.e. detour), Municipality reserves the
right to re-route trucks to another bidder’s location, which will
result in a lower net cost to the Municipality.
