Item No. 9F <br />Meeting Date: July 26, 2004 <br />Type of Business: CA <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business <br />City Administrator Review _______ <br /> City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Greg Lee, Director of Public Works <br /> <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution No. 6311 Resetting the Bid Date for the <br />Hidden Hollow Street and Utility Installation Project <br />and the Mounds View Manufactured Home <br />Community Second Access Project <br /> <br />Background: <br />The City has been working with Pro Craft Development, LLC to develop parcels <br />of land owned by the City and private citizens that are located south of County <br />Road H2, west of Knollwood Drive, and north of Woodale Drive. <br /> <br />On June 28, 2004, the City Council approved Resolution No. 6293, which <br />approved the plans and specifications and set a bid date of July 29, 2004 for the <br />Hidden Hollow Street and Utility Improvement Project. <br /> <br />As stated in the June 28th Staff report; “Staff estimates that it would take six to <br />eight weeks to complete the clearing and grubbing, haul in all necessary fill, and <br />compete the grading activities. <br /> <br />If the City awards a contract and the site is not completely accessible to the <br />contractor due to grading activities still being performed, the City will be exposed <br />to litigative action by the contractor. For this reason, Staff will be closely <br />monitoring the completion of required developer’s activities and grading progress <br />of the site.” <br /> <br />On July 21, 2004, Staff determined that substantial progress had not been made <br />and the estimated date of when the site will be ready for the City contractor was <br />substantially beyond the scheduled contract award date; Staff therefore <br />recommends extending the award date. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
