<br />Greenbrier Street totals $3,388,316. Ramsey County will be reimbursing the City $1,355,901 for
<br />construction, engineering and testing. The City of Vadnais Heights will be reimbursing the City
<br />$130,775 for construction, engineering and testing.
<br />For County Road D, street improvements would be funded through the City’s Infrastructure
<br />Capital Improvement Fund (Fund 450) and Special Assessments.
<br />For Greenbrier Street, street improvements would be funded through the City’s Infrastructure
<br />Capital Improvement Fund (Fund 450), Municipal State Aid Funds and Special Assessments.
<br />The CIP approved in November identified that Fund 450 would fund $1,272,000 of this project.
<br />Based on the bids, Fund 450 will need to fund approximately $1,709,159 of the project. The CIP
<br />will be need to be amended in May to reflect the increase in cost for the project.
<br />STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
<br />I followed up on references provided by New Look Contracting, Inc. and found that the majority
<br />of the comments were positive about their workmanship and follow up on project issues. Based
<br />on this and the low bid received, Staff recommends that the City Council award the construction
<br />contract to New Look Contracting, Inc. in the amount of $2,665,646.55.
