Re: Resolution 63-23 – Accepting the Lowest and Best Bid for the Riverside
Crossing Park East River Access Trail Project
Summary
On Thursday, August 17, 2023 two bids were opened for the Riverside Crossing Park East River
Access Trail Project (Project). The Project includes all materials and labor necessary to install a
limestone boulder stairway and a drainage channel from the shared use path leading to the
Scioto River at Riverside Crossing Park. Attached is an overview map of the park with the
general area where the work will occur for reference.
The engineer’s estimate and budget for this project is $250,000. Staff received two bids, with
the lowest bid received from Five Seasons Landscape Management in the amount of
$207,791.00, which is 16.8 percent below the engineer’s estimate.
The Project was initially funded in the 2021 Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) to follow the
completion of Riverside Crossing Park; however, several complexities slowed the design
process. These issues included integrating the design to the riverbank and existing stone bank
bedding and providing multiple river flow models to ensure the river rise does not exceed
allowable levels due to the Project.
Recommendation
Staff has thoroughly reviewed the Five Seasons Landscape Management bid and found it to be
the lowest and best bid. References for this contractor were performed and found to be
favorable. Staff has also reviewed the project schedule and found it to be acceptable for the
scope and timing of the work to begin this fall
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 63-23 authorizing the City Manager to enter into a
construction contract with Five Seasons Landscape Management in the amount of $207,791.
