These specifications represent many hours of study by experts in the various fields of insu.rance, and as a result promises the very finest village insurance program for the coming' year. The time has now come to~ seek the economies and other benefits which generally result from competitive bidding. It is the Finance Committee,s recommendation that the Board approve the following procedures for inviting such bids: 1. That there be a direct mailing of the insurance specifications together with a covering letter to all insurance agents in the Village of Mount Prospect. Such a list of agents has been taken from the Manual published by the ~ational Insurance gnder~riters. 2. That there be a direct mailing, of the insurance speci- fications and a covering letter to selected insurance companies and agents in downtown Chicago. The eovering letter to insurance companies will suggest -- that they select the agent who will process the bid. As a note of information, one of the selected companies is the St. Paul Fire & Marine Co., which owns all of - the outstanding Mt. Prospect Water Revenue Bonds of 1949. It was felt that such invitation added the element of . c~urtesy to t~e existing soundness of company selection. 3. That at least two notices will be placed in both local newspapers which will call attention to the invitation to bid and will advise that the insurance specifications can be obtained at the Village Hall upon request. December 27, 1961 he direct mailing 'is scheduled for January-15, 1962. The new~paper notieea will appear some t~me between January 15, 1962 and February B, 1952. Instructions to bidders will. request that bids be received in the Village Manager's office no later than 5:00 P.M. on February 27, 1962. Such bids will be opened at 8:00 P.M. daring the regular Board meeting on February 27, 1962. The bide will be recorded in the Village records and then referred to the Citizens Insurance Committee, who will work in conjunction with the Village ~anager and the Village Treasurer to formulate their joint recom- mendations by April 2, 1962. The report of recommendations, together with the bids, will be on file in the Village Clerk's office from April 3, 1962 through April 9, 1962 and may be examined by any person requesting such information.
