Please send the final and compiled bid tabulation (bid tally), including all quantities and unit pricing for each bidder, for 'Practice Football Athletic Field Renovation' that was submitted on 04/06/2021. I believe the project number is 'LM030921', but I could be mistaken. If so, please use the project name and date to lookup the responsive documents. We specifically request the line-item bid tabulation showing each material, quantity, unit, and unit price for every bidder. If no such line-item tally was created, please provide the full bid submissions from each contractor. A grand total sheet alone is not sufficient to satisfy this request unless it was a lump sum bid.
Below is an example of the format we are looking for that the engineer usually creates at the completion of the bid:

Name - David Covucci

Affiliation - FOIAball

Pursuant to Connecticut's Freedom of Information Act (Chapter 14 Conn. Gen. Stats.), I am requesting the following documents from your athletics department.

Any spending documents that detail total expenses incurred by your university’s student-athlete dining facilities for the following date range: 3/1/2026 to 3/31/2026, or the most recent available month.

The most recent version of any document that tracks the per-student-athlete cost of dining facilities, should such document exist.

Any existing report or document that tracks specific quantities of items purchased for student-athlete dining facilities (including, but not limited to, meat, poultry, and produce) for the following date range: 3/1/2026 to 3/31/2026 or the most recent available month.

With this last bullet point, I am attempting to capture the voluminous nature of running a student-athlete dining facility, and capture the scale of food required, i.e., 1,000 pounds of chicken breasts.

As such, I am amenable to this bullet point being fulfilled in a way your department believes is most easily applicable, and will accept current inventory logs or purchasing schedules (as opposed to getting a ton of invoices that might require voluminous review and/or redaction).

Please note that Connecticut law requires public agencies to respond to requests within four days of receiving them by either processing or denying the request, or providing written notice requesting an extension.

As I am an independent journalist engaged in legitimate newsgathering, I am requesting a fee waiver of any associated costs with this request. In lieu of a fee waiver, I am requesting a detailed invoice of any potential costs, if any, associated with this request.

Thank you,
David
