The Parks, Recreation, and Forestry Commission recommends to re-bid this <br />project in an effort to obtain more favorable bids, and to conduct an <br />advertisement campaign to reach the smaller contractors who typically do not bid <br />on public contracts. <br /> <br /> <br />Advertise for Bids – As per state statute, with an estimated contract amount in <br />excess of $100,000, publication must be made at least three weeks before the <br />last day to submit bids. The advertisement must be published at least once in the <br />official newspaper and at least once in either a trade paper or a newspaper that <br />is published in a first class city. Given this, Staff seeks authorization to advertise <br />for bids. <br /> <br /> <br />Bid Date – A February 21, 2006, 10:00 a.m. bid date will provide ample time to <br />provide the required notification to contractors as per state statute. It will also <br />allow the necessary time for Staff to provide direct notice to contractors. <br /> <br />Attached is a complete proposed schedule for this project. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />It is recommended the City Council approve a resolution to authorize to advertise <br />for bids, and set a bid date of February 21, 2006 for the Groveland Park Building <br />Replacement Project. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Greg Lee, Director of Public Works <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
