Explanation

1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to enter into a construction contract with Nickolas Savko & Sons, Inc., in the amount of $543,610.92; to encumber funds with the Transportation Division for inspection, testing, and prevailing wage coordination services in the amount of $83,000.00; to authorize the City Auditor to transfer a total of $626,610.92 within the Storm Sewer Bond Fund; and to amend the 2007 Capital Improvements Budget; all in connection with the Moler Road Stormwater System Improvements Project.

2. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AWARD: The Director of Public Utilities publicly opened 10 bids on October 3, 2007. These bids were received from: Tata Excavating, Inc., $483,128.44; Nickolas Savko & Sons, Inc., $543,610.92; Danbert, Inc., $546,344.45; Storts Excavation Inc., $556,441.20; Shelly & Sands, $596,863.62; Complete General Construction Co., $602,645.45; Columbus Asphalt Paving, Inc., $625,609.43; Loveland Excavating, $719,583.30; George J. Igel & Company, Inc., $723,735.60; and Fields Excavating Inc., $728,273.70;

Tata Excavating submitted the lowest bid of $483,128.44, however, it has been considered non-responsive because their bid bond was for $48,000 while the required 10% amount is $48,313 . The amount was incorrect due to a math error in the unit price extensions. Therefore, Nickolas Savko & Sons, Inc. is the lowest, responsible, responsive bidder. Additional information regarding each bidder, description of work, contract timeframe and detailed amounts can be found on the attached Legislation Information Form.
