RE:
Bid Results – 2023 Concrete Cost-Share Project.
DISCUSSION
After reviewing the cost-share applications and Public Works’ areas of repair/replacement, Staff compiled the bid documents and advertised the project on the City’s website, BidNet (596 contacts), and in the Cortez Journal. The Invitation to Bid was downloaded by seven contacts, and five sets of plans were picked up from the Service Center. An informational pre-bid meeting was held on March 24th, with three potential bidders in attendance. The bid opening was held on April 13, 2023, with one bid received from Chavez Construction Corporation at $153,785.00. This is approximately 23% lower than the engineer’s estimate of $201,781.00.
BACKGROUND
The City of Cortez provides an annual sidewalk cost-share program to help residents and business owners either install new sidewalk or replace deteriorated sidewalks on their property. The program encourages and promotes improvement of our public walkways by offering a 50% cost-share agreement with local residents. In addition, the City utilizes this project for maintenance on sidewalks, ADA accessible ramps, curbs, and gutters. This year’s project includes removal and replacement of approximately 276 SY of damaged concrete sidewalk; 422 LF of curb & gutter; 298 SY of new concrete sidewalks; 15 ADA curb ramps; and miscellaneous other concrete work throughout the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Street Capital Fund has a total of $250,000 budgeted for concrete, cost-share, and storm drain work this year. There are twelve citizens and/or businesses participating in the cost-share project.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the 2023 Concrete Cost-Share Project be awarded to Chavez Construction Corporation at their bid price of $153,785.00.
MOTION
If agreed upon by the City Council, a possible motion would be:
I move to award the bid for the 2023 Concrete Cost-Share Project to Chavez Construction Corporation at its bid price of $153,785.00.
