CR 96-119 Random Sidewalk RepairJuly 11, 1996
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move that Council adopt
Resolution 96 -62, Resolution for Award of Bid, Random Repair of Sidewalk,
Protect 96 -04.
Overview.
Engineering staff has returned to zone 1 of 4 designated sidewalk
inspection zones and completed a review of needed repairs. A bid opening
was held July 11 and this report expands on that process.
Primary Issues to Consider.
• Bid Tabulation
Contractor Bid
Victor Carlson & son $39,467.75
Gunderson Bros. Cement 41,660.15
Ron Kassa Construction 44,454.00
Lindahl Carlson 49,834.00
Progressive Contractors 51,351.00
Tenson Construction 84,247.60
O Repair Budget
The contractor bid of $39,467.75 is approximately 11% higher than the
amount budgeted by the City. The bid price of $2.75/sf for concrete
panels is essentially the same as last years bid. The square footage of
replacement is on target. The overage arises from the extraordinary
cost of replacing curb and gutter to accommodate ADA standard pedestrian
ramp installations. Staff needs to review that issue more thoroughly
when preparing the 1997 budget.
o Recommendation
Staff has reviewed all bids and finds them in order. Staff has also
reviewed the low bidder's credentials and contacted references. Based on
this investigation staff recommends award of bid to Victor Carlson & Son
and that the budget overrun be funded by the general contingency fund.
