ISSUE
Should City Council award a construction contract for the new construction of 3 single-family
homes in Oakshire Hills, to Acorn Construction for $571,400.00?
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
This project will consist of the new construction of 3 single-family homes in the Oakshire Hills
Subdivision in Eastwood Heights. The properties will be made available for sale to low and
moderate income families. These parcels were purchased from the Housing Authority of the
City of Pueblo for this purpose using HOME funds. Expenditures have already been made for
pre-contract costs, purchase and maintenance of the properties.
Proposals for Project No. 12-070 Single-Family Housing at Oakshire Hills have been received
and examined. The proposal of $571,400.00 was the lowest of those bids determined to be
responsible.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
HOME money will be used for this contract and funding has been previously appropriated for
the purposes of housing development. Funding is available in the 251 Fund.
