SEAL COATING PROJECT 1977 -5 Engineer Hubbard reported that bids for the 1977 street seal coating project were opened at 10:00 AM on July 25 and that only two bids were received, one from Allied Blacktop Company, Inc. for $27,292.00 and the other from Bituminous Road- ways, Inc. for $32,252.00. The low bid from Allied Blacktop was $10,608.00 less than he had estimated it would be. Last year's low bid for the same area was $43,915.00 but also included several street repairs. This year the City's Public Works Department has repaired some of the bad areas and contracted out several of the larger repairs. The City has spent approximately $2,000 on these repairs. Eng. Hubbard reported that Allied Blacktop Co. has performed seal coat work in Mounds View previously and is qualified to undertake the project and recommended that the Council approve awarding the project to Allied Blacktop. Mayor Pickar asked Eng. Hubbard why there could be such a large difference between his estimate and the bid, even though the bid was lower rather than higher. Eng. Hubbard explained that bidders may be more anxious for work this year, the material prices bid were significantly lower than last year, and this year the miscellaneous repair work is not included. MSP (Pickar- Rowley) to award the contract for the seal coating project, 1977 -5, to Allied Blacktop Company, Inc. at a cost of $27,292.00. 5 ayes
