John Szerlag, City Manager <br />Hans Ottinot, City AI/orney <br />Jane A. Hines, City Clerk <br /> <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Based on information I received from City staff and our consultant, BH&A, I recommend that the City <br />Commission award Bid No. 07-10-04 and enter into a contract with Southeastern Engineering <br />Contractors for the construction of the Central Island Drainage Project in an amount not to exceed <br />$3,635,852.02. This is the second low bidder out of fourteen (14) bids submitted. This project will <br />be extremely complex and will have a significant impact on the surrounding residences. I feel we <br />need to have a contractor with an excellent track record and a great deal of experience in this specific <br />type of work. It is for that reason that I recommend Southeastern. <br /> <br />REASONS: <br />The City has significant drainage problems in the Central Island area and this contract will allow us to <br />not only address that issue, but will allow us to rebuild all of the streets impacted, but do so in a much <br />improved fashion, including landscaping, curb & gutter, and on street parking. It should be noted that <br />this project will include new concrete curb and gutter on all impacted streets as well as a ten (10) foot <br />wide hike & bike path on 18yd Street and North Bay Road. This project will also include Gwen <br />Margolis Park drainage improvements. <br /> <br />ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: <br />We did complete a plan of which this is part. <br />We will not have to acquire any easements. <br />The total cost of the project is estimated to be less than $3,700,000. <br />There will be an annual operation and maintenance costs, which is partially budgeted. <br />The expected time for completion of the project is Summer of2009. <br />Funding is available in Account Number 40-538-5635. <br /> <br />I'unding f'\\I\~ I \; <br />available: \)' 1\\:(\ <br /> <br />I'inance Department <br /> <br /> <br />j\genda Item No.: <br /> <br />10D <br />2-LI-O~ <br /> <br />Commission Meeting Date: <br />
