Rare Earth LLC has filed a lawsuit against the City of Glendale claiming the City violated its procurement rules when it awarded a bid to purchase a City-owned site by the Agua Fria River to a competing firm.
Rare Earth, a Glendale-based mining and gravel company, alleges in a Maricopa County Superior Court complaint filed in November that Glendale set up its solicitation process to favor M.R. Tanner Construction’s bid for the 48-acre property between Glendale Avenue and Bethany Home Road over its submission.
It also claims the terms of the contract between Tanner and Glendale do not follow those laid out in the bid request. Rare Earth is asking the Court to compel Glendale to perform the solicitation again.
