[Vendorsmi] Fw: Anderson Building Bid Process

REALLY!  The camel has really joined the donkeys in the tent?  I'd be
laughing were it not so sad!  The future, or lack thereof, for  blind
persons of Michigan.

Outrage poured upon more outrage. But, I told people they waived all rights
and equity when they voted illegally to violate PA 260 back in february.

I also predicted that there would be no commission when people rubber
stamped albeit reluctently the State Plan update in JJune of 2011.

One cannot compromise with beasts.

Now, that the camel's nose is firmly under the tent, We have the whole camel
inside of it.

	Yes, it will be very interesting to learn what the assistant AG has
to say.  Some of us had things to say, but almost nobody wanted to know,
with the exception of the Commission Board.  And why did the Board go along?
It might have had something to do with a message from BEP staff and EOC
leadership that there was no choice other than their proposal.  For whatever
reason, the Board heard only the Agency version of the issue before giving
its support.

	Good afternoon, Terry;

	It has, indeed, been several weeks since the deadline for submission
of bid proposals for the Anderson Building cafeteria.  Members of the E O C
responsible for evaluating the proposals have completed their review of the
submissions.

	Since the bid solicitation was issued, the Attorney General has
questioned the process set forth by both the Elected Committee and the
Commission Board for identifying a qualified bidder for the Anderson
Building cafeteria.  At present, Commission staff is awaiting the Assistant
Attorney General's written recommendation on the matter.

	We apologize for this delay and hope to be able to provide updated
information in the near future.

	Best regards,  

	Constance Zanger

	Business Enterprise Program Manager

	Michigan Commission for the Blind

	517/335.3639

	517/335.5140 (facsimile)

	"To contract new debts is not the way to pay old ones."

	GEORGE WASHINGTON, in a April 7, 1799 letter to James Welch

	Good morning,

	It has been nearly six weeks since the deadline for submission of
bid proposals for the Anderson Building cafeteria.  

	It is my understanding absolutely no communication has been made to
the bidders.  How can such a fact be professionally possible?

	What is the status of the bid review, interview, and award process?

	Thank you in advance for your timely, professional response to this
inquiry.

	Best regards,

	Terry Eagle
