Explanation

Background: This legislation authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into a contract in the amount of $181,138.80 for the Transportation Division with G & G Cement Contractors for the UIRF - Near East/Southeast Sidewalk and Curb Improvements project and to pay construction inspection costs up to $44,316.00. This improvement details construction on Fairwood Avenue and Bulen Avenue bounded between Mound Street and Main Street and includes sidewalk, curb replacement, curb ramps, asphalt overlay, planning, and other associated work. (See the attached map.) The estimated Notice to Proceed date is January 24, 2005. This project is to be constructed by July 1, 2005. The project was let by the Transportation Division and was advertised in the City Bulletin, Dodge Reports, and by the Builders Exchange. Eight bidders/suppliers were solicited (seven majority, one minority) and five bids were received (four majority, one minority) and tabulated on September 24, 2004, as follows:

G & G Cement Contractors $181,138.80
Columbus Asphalt Paving Inc. $203,698.35
G. Marchi and Son LLC. $224,509.88
McDaniel's Construction Corp, Inc.* $245,761.77
Decker Construction Company $290,556.56

*minority bidder

After review of the bids the Transportation Division recommends a bid award to G&G Cement Contractors CC# 31-0924129 (expiration 12/18/2005), as the lowest, best, most responsive and most responsible bidder.


Fiscal Impact: The Transportation Division budgeted $6.3 million for Urban Infrastructure Recovery Fund projects in the 2004 Capital Improvements Budget. The Transportation Division budgeted $100,000 for the UIRF Near East/Southeast Sidewalk and Curb Improvement project. This ordinance authorizes an expenditure of $225,454.80. The remaining funds for this project are available within the 1995, 1999 Voted Streets and Highways fund due to lower bids for other UIRF projects.
