WHEREAS, the Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee (HACM) solicited competitive pricing for Commodity Parts and Equipment for various HACM locations where Auer Steel and Heating Supply Company Incorporated (Milwaukee, WI), was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; and
WHEREAS, the original purchase order was a cumulative amount of $75,000 not-to-exceed, with an anticipated end date of October 19, 2026; and
WHEREAS, the flooding of August 9, 2025 required extensive emergency purchases for the health and safety of the residents within a short turnaround time, prior to this HACM Board Meeting, so purchases have proceeded and the purchase order number 837 change order is being brought to the HACM Board of Commissioners as soon as it was practicable; and
