DISCUSSION:
Two separate alternates were bid. Each alternate has a different scope
of work. Alternate 1 is for the total project which includes the
construction of a box culvert across Third Avenue at Park Way and a box
culvert south of "G" Street east of Third Avenue. Alternate 2 includes
only the construction of the box culvert across Third Avenue at
parkway.
Bids were received from five contractors as follows:
Contractor
Alternate 1
Alternate 2
1. Sapper Brofhers, Inc. - San Diego
$307,946.00
$238,845.00
2. P.K. Construction Co. - San Diego
317,660.90
276,425.20
313,441. 00
319,354.00
3. Hetro-Young Construction Co. - S.D.
4. K.E.C. Co. - Corona
380,991.00
387,140.00
5. Gemi, Inc. - Arcadia
419,306.00
331,695.00
The low bid submitted by Sapper Brothers, Inc. is below the Engineer's
estimate of $432,798.00 for Alternate 1 by $124,852.00 or 28.8 percent.
Sapper Brothers was also the low bidder for Alternate 2. Their bid for
Alternate 2 is below the Engineer's estimate of $360,991 by $122,146.00
or 33.8 percent. We have reviewed the low bid and find it to be
acceptable.
We are very pleased with the low bid received and with the contractor,
Sapper Brothers, who has completed other projects for us. The
inflationary trend in construction has apparently softened. I believe
this could be due to more competition because of lower activity in the
private building industry.
Staff is recommending the award of the bid for Alternate 1.This
alternate provides for:
1. The ul timate drainage improvement across Thi rd Avenue.
2. Expansion of the parking lot (approx. 5 spaces) south of
Madrona and east of Third.
3. Elimination of the flooding hazard and ponding south of "G"
Street.
The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development has reviewed
the low bidder's eligibility to participate in a Federally financed
Block Grant project and has approved Sapper for this project.
