$54,303.54 TO SOUTHSIDE LAWN AND LANDSCAPE AND SETTING FORTH
$12,000.00 FOR CONTINGENCIES AND ADDITIONAL WORK, FOR THE EL PUEBLO

ISSUE
Should the City Council award a construction contract in the amount of $54,303.54 to
Southside Lawn and Landscape Company and set forth $12,000.00 for contingencies
and additional work for the El Pueblo Landscape Project?
The El Pueblo Landscape Project is located on City owned property and public right of
way surrounding the El Pueblo History Museum including the median in Union Avenue
and portions of the Pueblo Puebla Plaza. The project consists of the installations of
trees, shrubs, perennials, gravel, wood mulch, boulders, irrigation and low voltage
lighting. (see enclosed cover sheet site plan)
Southside Lawn and Landscape Company was the only bidder out of ten landscape
contractors who obtained bid package and attended a mandatory pre -bid meeting. The
Bid received was in the amount of $54,303.54 and was lower than the City's estimate.
The contractor has acknowledged the bid in writing and will accepted the Contract if City
Council awards this Contract. The contingency and additional work in the amount of
$12,000.00 is to be used on items unforseen in the scope of work and for items for
planting and irrigation of the Pueblo Puebla Plaza. The items to be added are items
indicated in the Bid and can be increased with a set unit price such as trees, shrubs and
irrigation. A schedule of values was required with the submittal for all lump sum items.
The additional work would allow the rehabilitation of Puebla Plaza to be started after
many years of disrepair.
The Department of Planning and Community Development will be responsible for
project management. Construction is scheduled to begin immediately in August 2005.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $66,303.54 shall be paid from Project Number's EL0101, and
EL0102. These funds are set aside for the improvements from the transfer agreement of
the El Pueblo Trading Post to the State with the Colorado Historical Society.
The Parks Departments budget for the FY 2006 will require an increase for maintenance
costs of the landscaping on this City owned property.
