AGENDA ITEM: 2018 Street Improvements – Accept Bids and Award Contract
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Rob Weldon, Public Works Director
Chad Isakson, Project Engineer
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council accept bids and award a contract for the 2018
Street Improvements?
BACKGROUND: On December 5, 2017, following a Public Improvement Hearing, the City council
ordered the improvements and preparation of the plans and specifications for the 2018 Street Improvements.
The improvements include the rehabilitation of residential streets located in the southern Tri-Lakes area.
The street improvements include approximately 2.0 miles of local streets consisting of Jane Road North,
from Lake Jane Trail North to Jamaca Avenue North; Jane Court North, from Jane Road North to dead end;
Jamaca Avenue North, from Jane Road North to Jamaca Avenue North; Jerome Avenue North, from 49th
Street North to 53rd Street North; Jerome Avenue Court North, from Jerome Avenue North to dead end;
and 53rd Street North, from Jamaca Boulevard North to 9480 53rd Street North.
The street improvements include a full depth reclamation of the existing pavement and a new bituminous
surface. Jane Road North and Jane Court North improvements include a new concrete ribbon curb. New
concrete curb and gutter will be installed for Jamaca Avenue North, Jerome Avenue North, Jerome Avenue
Court North, and 53rd Street North. Drainage improvements have been incorporated into the project to
include storm sewer system replacement and drainage upgrades to prevent water from standing on or along
the new street pavements. The scope of improvements remains consistent with the approved feasibility
report which was adopted by the City Council on November 7, 2017.
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: Bids were received, publicly opened, and read aloud on Thursday,
May 3, 2018. The City’s design consultant has prepared and attached a Tabulation of Bids and a letter of
recommendation for the award of the contract. The City received 4 bids for this project, with Valley Paving,
Inc. providing the lowest base bid plus alternate 1 in the combined amounts of $1,043,136.70.
The City included a different bituminous pavement mixture (C Oil) as Alternate No. 1 to review the actual
cost difference from the current standard mix. The City specifies a “B Oil” as its standard which is more
susceptible to thermal cracking. To handle the thermal expansion expected from a “B Oil” the City saws
and seals the roadway every 40-feet to allow for movement. The “C Oil” eliminates the need for the saw
and seal and handles the thermal expansion better and resulting in the roadway showing fewer temperature
related cracking over the useful life. Valley Paving, Inc. also had the lowest Alternate No. 1 bid in the
additional amount of $22,407.20.
Contractor references for Valley Paving, Inc. were reviewed and verified. The City Engineer and the
consultant are therefore recommending that the Council award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder,
Valley Paving, Inc. as outlined in the attached letter.
As a part of this award staff is requesting Council to provide the City Administrator authorization to enter
into a material testing contract in the not-to-exceed amount of $20,000. This amount has been budgeted in
the total cost figures presented below and is necessary to complete the project.
FISCAL IMPACT: Approval of this resolution commits the council to enter into a construction contract
for the project with a construction contract amount of $1,043,136.70. The estimated total cost for the 2018
Street improvements is $1,252,000. The improvements are proposed to be partially assessed against the
benefitting properties consistent with the City’s Special Assessment Policy.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council approve Resolution No. 2018-051,
thereby accepting bids and awarding a contract to Valley Paving, Inc., in the amount of $1,043,136.70 for
the 2018 Street Improvements. Staff is also recommending that the City Council authorize the City
Administrator to enter into a material testing contract in the not-to-exceed amount of $20,000. The
recommended motion for this action is as follows:
“Move to approve Resolution No. 2018–051, accepting bids and awarding a contract to Valley Paving
Inc., in the amount of $1,043,136.70 for the 2018 Street Improvements; and to authorize the City
Administrator to enter into a material testing contract in the not-to-exceed amount of $20,000.”
