RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council award WO 21-04, City ADA Project to Weave Construction in the amount of $346,930.00.
BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
W.O. 21-04, City ADA Project, is a project consisting of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible ramp construction on the street corners where the City will soon be completing pavement overlays and chip seals and on other corners at various locations throughout Billings.
The annual ramp construction project is in accordance with the City’s agreement with the Department of Justice to install/upgrade ramps along streets constructed or reconstructed after 1992 and in specific areas identified by need. The miscellaneous ramp locations were selected based upon neighborhood requests.
The project was advertised on May 7, 14 and 21, 2021, on the City's Website and in Yellowstone County News. Bids were opened on May 25, 2021, and four bids were received. Weave Construction submitted the lowest bid.
