The latest regular City Council <br />meeting for award of the contract, per specifications, is July 10, 2000. <br />The acquisition of the property for this project was initiated on December 20, 1999, when the City <br />Attorney was authorized to commence eminent domain proceedings. As the City Attorney has stated <br />in recent meetings with the Council and staff, the right-of-way has not been acquired through <br />preparation of an appraisal and direct negotiation with the property owner. <br />The City can ask the contractor submitting the lowest bid if they will still honor their bid if awarded at <br />a later date if the property acquisition will be completed in the near future. However, staff has not <br />been informed that this is the case. Also, the schedule included in the Feasibility Report estimated the <br />construction of the improvements would be complete by June 26, 2000. Even if the City Council <br />awarded the contract at the next meeting, it is anticipated that construction would not be completed <br />until September, 2000. <br />Without control of the property, the City cannot authorize a contractor to .roceed with construction <br />and should not award the construction contract. If the City does not a sem,. ntract, staff will <br />inform the three (3) contractors and return their bid bonds. <br />If the City does not award a contract for this project, the dev <br />installation of the improvements with the execution of <br />City. <br />Mayor Bergeson moved to adopt Resoluti <br />project, as presented.
