SUMMARY:
Attached is a resolution awarding a Construction Contract to Standard Concrete, Inc.,
for Project No. 23-025, Prairie Avenue to Minnequa Lake Trail.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Ordinance 9969, final adoption by City Council on July 26, 2021, established the Prairie
Avenue to Minnequa Lake Trail, Project CI2115, budgeted and appropriated funds in
the amount of $388,000.00 and approved an IGA between the City of Pueblo and
Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) to receive grant funds in the amount of
$388,000.00.
Resolution 14816, final adoption by City Council on February 28, 2022, awarded an
agreement for Professional Design Services, in the amount of $83,994.00 to Dibble &
Associates Consulting Engineers.
Ordinance 10307, final adoption by City Council on October 24, 2022, approved the 1st
amendment and restatementment to the IGA between the City of Pueblo and CDOT,
budgeted and appropriated funds in the amount of $1,022,542.00.
BACKGROUND:
The Project includes the design and construction of a multi-use trail from Minnequa
Lake to the trailhead at Tucci Lane and Acero Avenue, then south to Pueblo Boulevard,
where there will be an additional trailhead. The project also includes lighting along the
trail, crosswalk improvements, on-street bike lanes, and grading.
The City was awarded two phases of Multimodal Option Funds (MMOF) grants.
Initially, the City of Pueblo was awarded $388,000.00 in 2020. At that time, the intent
was to design the entire trail and construction portion. In 2022, based on the engineer's
estimate for the grant application, the City of Pueblo requested and was awarded an
additional $1,022,542.00 to complete the construction. The only bidder on the project
was approximately $400,000.00 below the estimated cost of the project; therefore, the
City of Pueblo is proposing a higher than normal contingency. This contingency will be
used for additional improvements to the project, such as additional landscaping, and
amenities at the trailheads.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Funding (including contingencies) in the amount of $1,311,542.00 will be paid from
account Project CI2115 Prairie Avenue to Minnequa Lake Trail.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
