Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into contract in an amount up to $253,112.79 for the Pedestrian Safety Improvements - Cole-Mooberry Sidewalks Project and to pay construction inspection costs up to $37,966.92.

This project will construct sidewalks and curb ramps on Cole Street between Kelton Avenue and Fairwood Avenue, and on Mooberry Street between Kelton Avenue and Berkeley Avenue.
A total of 0.18 miles of 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk will be added in this project on the north side of Cole Street and 0.11 miles of 6-foot wide concrete sidewalk on the south side of Mooberry Street. 21 ADA ramps will be added or reconstructed in this project.
This project ranks high due to the large transit-dependent population within the neighborhood. The neighborhood is mostly residential, but there is a school in the area.

The estimated Notice to Proceed date is estimated to be April 28, 2011. The contract length is 60 days from the date of the Notice to proceed. The project was let by the Office of Support Services and was advertised in the City Bulletin. 3 bids were received on March 10, 2011 (3 majority, 0 minority) and tabulated on March 11, 2011 as follows:

Company Name Bid Amt City/State Majority/MBE/FBE
Decker Construction Company $253,112.79 Columbus, OH Majority
Columbus Asphalt Paving $282,485.28 Columbus, OH Majority
G&G Cement Contractors $340,248.33 Columbus, OH Majority

Award is to be made to Decker Construction Company, as the lowest, best, most responsive and most responsible bidder.
