Description
This is an appeal from a peremptory writ of mandamus granted by the lower court against the City of Phoenix requiring it to let a street paving contract to a certain bidder so as to give effect to A.R.S. § 34-241, the "five per cent preference" statute. This statute requires a preference to be given in letting bids on "* * * contracts for public work to be performed on behalf of the state or any political subdivision thereof, which will be paid for from public funds * * *" so that a contractor who has paid certain state and county taxes must be granted the contract if a better bid by a non-qualified contractor is less than five per cent lower.
