The severity of deterioration requires the method of rehabilitation to be removal and replacement of the existing pipe. Bids were opened on August 14, 2001, with Jay Furney Construction, LLC being the only bidder. His bid of $349,413.00 exceeded the engineer's estimate of $289,530.00 by $59,883.00. The bid was rejected. The scope of the project was reduced by eliminating one site (one block), in order to stay within budget. The project was re -bid with new bids being opened on September 11, 2001. The low bidder was Martin Trenching & Excavating, Inc., with a bid of $211,670.00 which was $51,421.00 less than the new Engineer's estimate of $263,091.00. Based upon the latest bid schedule, staff will try to add the deleted block back into the project. This block is between W. 15 and W. 16 Streets from Francisco St. to Martin St. Copies of the bids received for this project and a vicinity map of the sites to be rehabilitated are attached for your information.
