ACTION REQUEST (Brief Summary)

Approve and award Bid # 2010-228 Emergency Power to Water and Wastewater Facilities Project.

BACKGROUND

Bid packets were mailed to/picked up by area vendors on August 20, 2010.  A letter of recommendation and bid tabulation are attached for your review..

Bids opened on Tuesday, September 14, 2010 at 2: p.m.

This project is funded by the Texas Department of Rural Affairs (TDRA).

ANALYSIS

The low responsible bid meeting all specifications was received from McDonald Electric, for the total; project amount of $1,200,708.10.  This cost includes the base bid and add alternate bid.  McDonald Electric appears to be a responsible firm that is capable of performing the specified work in a satisfactory manner.

It is my recommendation to award the Emergency Power to Water and Wastewater Facilities Project to McDonald Electric, for the total project amount of $1,200,708.10 and that the Mayor is authorized to execute a contract on behalf of the City Commission.  I further recommend that the Mayor be authorized to approve change orders, not to exceed 25% of the total contract price, without bringing the matter before Commission.

Thank you.
