As <br /> you know, the City has previously awarded bids for Site Utilities, Earthwork, Footings, <br /> Foundations and long-lead structural items for both projects, and the sitework at both <br /> locations is well underway. <br /> Recently we received bids for BP-2, which is for the building completion, mechanical and <br /> electrical construction for both projects. The Fire Station bids were received on <br /> September 23, 2003 and the Public Works bids were received on September 25,2003. <br /> The total recommended award amount for the Public Works BP-2 Bid Division Nos. 1 <br /> through 23, including Alternate Nos.. 7,8,9,10 is $1,389,774.00. In addition, we are <br /> proposing the acceptance of other value engineering and cost reduction items as <br /> developed by the project team. <br /> It should be noted that accepting deduct Alternate No. 10 will result in the deletion of <br /> about 4,300 sq.ft. of building that includes Public Works Shop and Utility Storage Areas, <br /> as well as Police Squad Car and Vehicle Storage (see attached drawing). However, the <br /> value of this deduct is $157,000.00 and this amount is needed to cover• the costs of <br /> dealing with the unsuitable and contaminated soils encountered in the excavation portion <br /> of BP-l. Awarding these bids and acceptance of the value engineering/cost reduction <br /> items will result in a total cost amount, within the approved construction budget amount <br /> of$2,400,000.00. <br /> Midwest Division <br /> 8625 Renclova Street, Circle Pines, MN 55014 <br /> Phone:(763) 786-7711 Fax: (763) 786-2650 <br /> Equil Opporkinity Employer <br />
