TO: Mayor Thomas J. Weisner

FROM: L. Eric Schoeny, P.E. Drainage and Underground Coordinator

DATE: April 6, 2015

SUBJECT:
Resolution Authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into a contract with Geneva Construction for the 2015 Pavement Patching Water and Sewer Maintenance.

PURPOSE:
This contract is needed in order to replace pavement, curb and gutter, drive approaches, and sidewalks that have, or will be damaged while performing emergency repairs on the City's water and sewer system

BACKGROUND:
On March 15, 2015 the Director of Purchasing placed a public advertisement for bids for the above referenced contract. The City Clerk received two bids, which were publicly opened and read out loud on April 1, 2015. Geneva Construction was the low, responsive bidder in the amount of $637,085.00. The total bid is derived by multiplying the bidder's unit prices by estimated quantities. Since this contract is being established to provide pavement restoration repairs for emergency work that has yet to occur, the quantities are only used to establish a total cost for evaluating and comparing bids.

DISCUSSION:
We recommend that this contract be awarded to Geneva Construction for the unit prices submitted for a total not to exceed amount of $495,000. Funding for this work is provided in the 2015 budget, within account No. 510-4063-511-38-38 (Water and Sewer Fund)


IMPACT STATEMENT:
This work must be performed in order to provide a safe means of travel for vehicle and pedestrian traffic.


RECOMMENDATIONS:
Please forward this item to the Buildings, Grounds, and Infrastructure Committee for their consideration.
