The purchasing division posted a request for quotes on April 6, 2023 and received only one quote by the closing date. Other vendors contacted stated that they were not able to supply cold mix material in the off-season and would not be able to keep the material accessible if stockpiled. The prices quoted are a 5.5% to 7% increase from 2022 prices, which is consistent with the Consumer Price Index inflation rate.
