Explanation
The Transportation Division is responsible for maintaining the City's roadway system through a viable renovation program. A concrete rehabilitation project is needed to prevent premature deterioration of the City's concrete roadways. The contract will consist of replacing concrete pavement and joint sealing on fifty-two of our residential streets. This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into contract with Decker Construction for concrete rehabilitation and joint sealing for the Transportation Division. The Transportation Division will perform inspection services at a cost not to exceed $45,000.00. This project was bid in compliance with the City Code and advertised in the City Bulletin. Formal competitive bids were received and tabulated on June 17, 2004, as follows:
Vendor / Bid amount / Status
Decker Construction Company / $567,779.30 / Majority

The Transportation Division recommends the contract award to Decker Construction Company, Contract Compliance Number 31-0983557 (expires July 7, 2006) as the lowest, best, most responsive and most responsible bidder.

Concrete rehabilitation and joint sealing spending in 2003 totaled $556,770.00.
