Martin, ASLA, Streetscape Specialist F_Fr,~ Re: Clover Court Channel Improvements Bid Acceptance Ordinance No. 76-04 Summary On October 26, 2004 two (2) bids were received, publicly opened and read for the Clover Court Channel Improvements project. A summary of the bids is shown on the attached bid tabulation. The Engineer's estimate for the project was $60,000.00. The Righter Company, Inc. submitted the lowest and best bid of $60,760.80, exceeding the estimate by approximately 1%, an amount most likely attributable to bidding this project later in the construction season and also reflective of contractor workloads. Although funds for construction of this project were not specifically budgeted in 2004, sufficient stormwater improvement funds are available as a result of the bid for the construction of the Shier-Rings Road Stormwater System Improvements project being $293,495 less than the programmed funds. At the August 2, 2004 City Council meeting, staff provided a status report and recommendation of the continuation of the channel erosion improvements along Clover Court initially completed at 230 and 238 Clover Court in November 2003. City Council unanimously endorsed the recommended continuation completing the improvements from 238 Clover Court to the 42-inch storm outlet beneath Monterey Drive, located west of 278 Clover Co rt. All of the Clover Court residents affected by this improvement are agreeable participants in its construction and completion. The preliminary cost estimate reported to Council was $39,000. The Engineer's estimate of $60,000 was established from the completed construction plans. The difference reflects the required excavation on three properties, demolition of existing wood and stone retaining walls, connection of existing downspouts and 12-inch pipe, the removal of existing plant material and the addition of two (2) replacement deciduous trees. For Council reference and review, a reduced set of project construction drawings for this work has been placed in the Council planning room. This work consists of the installation of a 5-foot wide channel lined by 2-foot high Mosaic Versa-Lok retaining walls within the 30-foot easement located along the rear properties of 246, 254, 262, 270 and 278 Clover Court. Staff has limited prior experience with The Righter Company, Inc. Currently, they are the general contractor for the Shier Rings Road Stormwater System Improvements project, which bid on September 28, 2004. They demonstrated sufficient qualifications and experience to successfully construct and complete that particular project and staff finds no reason not to accept their bid for this project. Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt this Ordinance accepting the bid of The Righter Company, Inc. Emergency action upon adoption is requested to allow work to commence and be completed during the remaining favorable fall weather, and thus be substantially complete by the final project completion date of December 17, 2004. ~~ Q~ r-+ 0 0 +~ U Q~ • ^, i i a~ . ,-~ -.. ~-; Q~ O •mm-~ F~-•1 .N as a~ 0 L Q.
