Subject: Baker Blvd. Plans and Specifications

 

 

Attached, are the plans, specifications and estimated cost for the Baker Blvd. Detention Pond. The original construction estimate in 2009 was $456,464.00 with contingency. The attached construction estimate is $496,970.00 without contingency. This is a very appealing project to area contractors and staff anticipates the cost will be lower than the engineers estimate. No time period for construction will be included in the specifications. The contractors will set their own time period. Halff and Associates will be at the meeting to answer any detailed questions concerning the plans or specifications. A projected time line for bidding this project is as follows:

 

1.       Plans and Specs. Approved by council                              April 12, 2011

2.       1st Advertisement                                                                  April 20, 2011

3.       2nd Advertisement                                                                 April 27, 2011

4.       Pre-bid Construction Meeting                                            May  4, 2011

5.       Bid Opening                                                                            May  11, 2011

6.       Bid Award                                                                               May  24, 2011
