Mounds View City Council June 28, 2010 <br />Regular Meeting Page 12 <br />H. Resolution 7640, Approving a Construction Contract for 2010 Miscellaneous • <br />Concrete Repairs. <br />Public Works Director DeBar explained each winter the City experiences breaks in the water <br />distribution system. Much of the City's watermain is located in turfed boulevard areas; however, <br />excavating to repair the breaks often requires removal of concrete curbing, driveways, and hot- <br />mixed asphalt to provide safe trenches. Restoration of the damaged curbing, pavement, <br />sidewalk, turf, etc. is typically performed the following spring/summer. <br />Public Works Director DeBar explained the Public Works Department typically handles all the <br />restoration except concrete repairs. Of the 11 break locations, only two require concrete repairs. <br />One location (8132 Long Lake Road) requires minor work involving constructing concrete curb <br />and gutter. The other location (2612 County Road I) requires significantly more work. The <br />County Road I repair was the location of the New Year's Eve watermain break that leaked <br />approximately 1.2 million gallons and drained the water tower and a portion of the ground <br />reservoir, leaving the entire City with low water pressure. <br />Public Works Director DeBar stated a quote proposal package was prepared by Public Works and <br />distributed to five local concrete contractors to submit quotes. Quotes were received by four of <br />the five and ranged from $15,362.50 to $25,925.76. However, the lowest three quotes only had a <br />difference of $984.50. The low quote was submitted by Neeck Construction, Inc. of Minneapolis, <br />MN. The adopted 2010 budget has $10,000 in this account, which is under the low quote • <br />amount of $15,362.50. The restoration of the watermain break on County Road I is much more <br />significant than those in the past since the road is concrete and Ramsey County requires specific <br />measures in the repair. In addition, one-half of the concrete driveway entrance to Mounds View <br />Square also needs replacement, along with a nearby sidewalk. Public Works believes the quote <br />amount is appropriate. The work was projected to be completed by July 31, 2010. <br />Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 7640 that will award the construction <br />contract for $15,362.50 to Neeck Construction, Inc. of Minneapolis, Minnesota for the 2010 <br />Miscellaneous Concrete Repairs. In addition, it is recommended that the City Council consider <br />adding a 10% construction contingency to the authorized amount for minor work associated with <br />unknowns that could occur during construction. This contingency would add an additional <br />$1,536 to the $15,362.50 for a grand total authorized amount not to exceed $16,898.50. <br />Council Member Mueller questioned what funds would be used for the repairs. Public Works <br />Director DeBar stated the water utility fund would be used to pay for the repairs. He explained <br />no consultants were used for the bid package and Public Works staff would supervise the project. <br />Mayor Flaherty asked if the 10% contingency was necessary. Public Works Director DeBar <br />stated the contingency would allow the bid to run over the $15,000 without having to come back <br />to Council for approval. He did not anticipate needing the additional 10%. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7640, • <br />awarding a Construction Contract for the 2010 Miscellaneous concrete repairs for City Project <br />
