As you know, the City has previously awarded bids for Site Utilities, Earthwork, Footings, Foundations and long-lead structural items for both projects,and the sitework at both locations is well underway. Subsequently, we have received bids for the building completion, mechanical and electrical construction for both projects. The Fire Station bids were received on September 23, 2003 and the Public Works bids were received on September 25,2003. We are bringing the results of these bids to the City Council tonight for consideration and action. The total for the Fire Station bid amount for BP-1 Bid Division Nos.. I through 5 is$320,607.00, which has already been awarded.The total bid amount for BP-2 Bid Division Nos. 1 through 20 is $1,570,472.00, which includes Alternate Nos. 6 and 7. Awarding these bids would result in a total Project cost amount of $2,760,289.00 which is $482,229.00 over the approved Project budget amount of$2,278,060.00. The total for the Public Works bid amount for BP-1 Bid Division Nos. 1 through 7 is $666,7.32.00, which has already been awarded. The total bid amount for'BP-2 Bid Division Nos. I through 23 is $1,681,790.00, which includes Alternate No. 7. Awarding these bids would result in a total Project cost amount of $3,520,699.00 which is $268,759.00 over the approved Project budget amount of$.3,251,940.00. In addition, the sitework at the Public Works project has encountered extensive unknown contaminated and unsuitable soils. The correction of this soils situation is resulting in an additional cost of$150,000.00, which is above the project costs listed above.. The project team, including City Staff, Oertel Architects and Kraus-Anderson has spent the last week diligently pursuing value engineering and cost reduction items with the low bidders for both projects. To date,these efforts have resulted in significant cost savings for consideration by the City.
