08-25-15 BOA Minutes August 25, 2015 Page 10 of 12

City Manager Owens reported that the Public Works Department is requesting approval of a construction contract for the FY15 Alleys Project. This project will include the reconstruction of various alleys in the Downtown and Davis Place areas. Bids were opened at 2:05 pm on August 13, 2015. The City received two bids as shown on the attached bid tabulation. Gershenson Construction Company, Inc. submitted the lowest, responsive, responsible base bid in the amount of $414,885.00. The final engineer’s estimate for this work was $321,535. All of these values include the alternate bid item, A1, for over excavation of soft soils, if necessary. Mobilization bids were higher than estimated, but understandable as this year’s project is only about one-half the size of last year’s project. The second lowest bid came from Raineri Construction, at $465,532.50, 12.2% higher than Gershenson Construction Company, Inc. The Capital Improvement Fund has $540,000 budgeted for this activity in FY 2015. City Staff recommends approval of the construction contract with Gershenson Construction Company, Inc. for the base bid value of $414,885.00. In addition to the contract amount, the City Staff requests authorization to approve change orders in an amount not to exceed $45,000, which is approximately 10% of the project cost. This contingency would be used to cover expenditures to correct unknown site issues that become apparent during the project.

08-25-15 BOA Minutes August 25, 2015 Page 11 of 12

City Manager Owens reported that the Public Works Department is recommending rejection of the only construction bid for the Carondelet Plaza Pavement Rehabilitation Project. In 2013, Parsons Brinkerhoff completed the design of the project. This project includes the rehabilitation of the existing concrete pavement and joints, replacement of curb ramps that do not meet ADA requirements, the replacement of substandard curb and gutter, base repair where necessary, and an ultra-thin bonded asphalt wearing surface (UBAWS). The Bid opening was at 2:05 pm on August 13, 2015. The City received only one bid on the project as shown on the attached bid tabulation. Gershenson Construction Company, Inc. submitted the bid in the amount of $977,225.22. The final engineer’s estimate for this work was $651,968.00. Staff feels the primary difference between the engineers estimate and bid received is due to uncertainty of the contractor to be able to complete portions of the work before weather limits the construction. The ultra-thin bonded asphalt wearing surface would be one of the last items installed, there is a temperature limitation on when it can be installed, and the only sub-contractor who does this type of surface is currently very busy. Staff’s recommendation is to reject the bid and not award the contract based on this sole bid. In the interest of keeping the project moving forward, staff will evaluate options, including bidding the concrete work separately from the ultra-thin bonded asphalt wearing surface that would be rebid in the spring.
