AWARD OF BID
RANDOM REPAIR OF SIDEWALK
Council Report 97 -132
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move that Council adopt
Resolution 97 -73, Resolution for Award of Bid, Random Repair of Sidewalk.
Overview.
Engineering staff has returned to zone 2 of the four designated sidewalk inspection
zones and completed a review of needed repairs. A bid opening was held June 26 and
this report concerns that bid process.
Contractor Bid
Ron Kassa Construction $28,128.45
Lindahl and Carlson, Inc. $32,761.40
Gunderson Bros. Cement $33,394.02
Thor Construction, Inc. $56,200.34
Engineer's Estimate $25,900.00
Repair budget
The low bid submitted by Ron Kassa Construction is approximately 9% higher
than the engineer's estimate but still considerably under the City's 1997 budget
of $35,000 for sidewalk repairs. Concrete prices have undergone a consistent
and escalating rise and this accounts for the slightly higher low bid than that
anticipated by the City.
• Recommendation
Staff has reviewed all bids and finds them in order. Staff has also received the
low bidder's credentials and contacted references. Based on this background
work, staff recommends award of bid to Ron Kassa Construction.
