Explanation

The Transportation Division is responsible for maintaining the City's roadway system in a safe manner. Guardrail and fence repair projects are needed to restore accident damage locations, replace deteriorating structures and install new structures. This project was bid in compliance with the Columbus City Code and advertised in the Columbus City Bulletin. Bids were received and tabulated on August 30, 2007, by the Transportation Division. Two bid proposals were received as follows:

Vendor / Bid Amount / Vendor Status
M. P. Dory Company / $323,155.50 / Majority
Lake Erie Construction Company / $379,695.00 / Majority

Award of the contract is recommended to M. P. Dory Company (contract compliance number 31-1115885 expiring on January 11, 2008) as the lowest responsive, responsible and best bidder.

Fiscal Impact: The contract amount will be for $250,000.00 based on the bid documents allowing the City to award a contract for an amount more or less than the amount bid using the bid prices. Funds for this contract are budgeted and available within the Municipal Motor Vehicle License Tax Fund. The amounts spent on guardrail and fence repair in, 2005, 2006 and 2007 were, $250,476.00, $242,851.00, and $250,000.00 respectively.

Emergency action is requested to allow this work to get underway as soon as possible to eliminate dangerous existing conditions thereby promoting motorist and pedestrian safety.
