make a determination to reduce Scope of Work. One of the reasons why we have that clause in there is because at the south end of the City we have a future project at about 15$1h to 159`h Street, it is still part of the bid, you are still going to provide a linear foot cost, etc. for the proposal as it relates to that project. However the City may decide to delete that portion of the project because it is slated for FY 2013/2014, and so if the City decides to proceed with that project then we will delete that portion from this project because we don't want to have to construct and then demolish the whole thing. Director Batista said as far as the paver pattern, you can walk up and down Collins Avenue and you will definitely see the paver pattern. In the plan that we are going to attach as an addendum, we do not have the radius of those curbs but you will have to try to do the best that you can to emulate that pattern. This is exactly the pattern that we are searching for and is intended for this RFP. The brick pavers are Hanson Pavers, they are a specific blend and we cannot use substitutions because that pattern has some shells in it and it is specifically Hanson. Director Batista said that there are several aspects of this project that he wanted to clarify for the record and as part of this Pre -bid. As part of the project we have existing structures that we have scheduled to receive what is called "color patch ", that is a specific product, that color patch is going to be placed on concrete structures to remain, since the structures can't be chipped away, it can't be demolished, it cannot be removed. That color patch is going to be placed on top of the concrete structures, similar to the manhole and drainage structure that he showed in the power point presentation. They are elements that are going to remain in place, that cannot be removed, and therefore we need to make sure that the color is continuous with the color pattern that we have for the pavers. We also have situations where existing elements to remain shall be documented as in Item 92, this is typical throughout and there are several locations that are similar to this. This is a gas station, in that gas station there is a trench drain that is adjacent to the back of sidewalk, and this is the property of the gas station. When you go out and do field inspections and field review you will notice that this element, the concrete structure between the back of sidewalk and the trench drain is all cracked. He does not intend on incorporating that in the RFP however you are required to document those areas that -are cracked; and -what he is- trying -to depict on these images is that you must document it. We are going from back of sidewalk toward Collins Avenue, you have to make sure that you keep those elements protected when you do your project. Item #3, existing elements to be removed to ensure a complete project, 43 is a grass area that is pretty much on the northern portion, we do expect that grass portion to be removed, he is saying it now in the pre -bid, it is not in the documents. Just like this little piece has to be redone in the northern portion toward the south at approximately 16200 we have elements such as these where we have a curb that was not really poured properly, if it gets in your way, specifically in that location, you can just remove that curb and continue on with the project. But it is expected that if there is a portion such as this that is encroaching into the sidewalk that we make that hole and go back to the back of sidewalk and put the pavers in. It is not going to be acceptable in this project to go around those with the brick pavers because it is not going to took good and it is not going to be aesthetically pleasing. The other element to this is the survey nails, if you encounter survey nails, you are required to make sure that survey nail gets back to its location and it is installed properly and adequately, and that has to be certified. That is in one of the sidewalks, and he encountered maybe three (3) of those but in your field inspection, please make sure that when you do remove that concrete that that survey nail Pro-Subnuttal Conference QA 1 13011 RFP 11 -11 -03 Page 2 of 7
