SUBJECT: Consider Awarding a Contract for the
2008 Bituminous Overlay, Project No. 2008-2
DATE: April 22, 2008
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is Resolution No. 6764, which accepts the bids and awards a contract for the
2008 Bituminous Overlay, Project No. 2008-2.
BACKGROUND:
On March 5, 2008, City Council adopted Resolution No. 6736, which approved the plans
and specifications and authorized staff to advertise for bids for the 2008 Bituminous
Overlay, Project No. 2008-2.
On April 8, 2008, a bid opening was held for the 2008 Bituminous Overlay Project, in
which there were ten bids opened for this improvement project. The bids are summarized
in the attached resolution. From the bid opening, the apparent low bidder is Bituminous
Roadways, Inc. with a bid of $882,674.95. The Engineer's estimate for this project is
$960,000.00.
The feasibility study contained a construction cost estimate of approximately
$1,002,000.00 and a project cost estimate of approximately $1,153,044.00. Adding a 5%
contingency to the actual low bid and 20% indirect costs, the estimated project cost is
approximately $1,112,170.00, which is below the estimated project cost in the feasibility
study.
If Council awards the contract, staff is also requesting a contingency amount equal to 5%
of the contract to cover minor change orders and quantity adjustments that may occur on
the project.
AL TERNATIVES:
1. Accept the low bid of Bituminous Roadways, Inc. and adopt Resolution No. 6764.
2. Reject the low bidder and award to another bidder.
3. Reject all bids and rebid.
4. Approve a 5% contingency amount on this project for use by the City Engineer in
authorizing change orders or quantity adjustments on this project.
5. Table for additional information.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No.1 and No.4 in order for this project to commence.
ACTION REOUESTED:
1. Offer Resolution No. 6764, A Resolution Accepting Bids on the 2008 Bituminous
Overlay, Project No. 2008-2 and move its adoption.
2. Approve a 5% contingency amount on this project for use by the City Engineer in
authorizing change orders or quantity adjustments on this project.
