Title
Consideration of and action on purchasing the services of SKE Construction to construct Phase 1 and 2 of the Library Parking Lot Replacement Project using BuyBoard Contract No. 660-21.
Body
Summary:
The Library was originally built in 1969 and expanded in 1994 and 2012. The parking lot consists mainly of two asphalt sections built in 1969/1994, with constructions tied together with a concrete drive poured in 2012. As such, the asphalt and concrete are worn and damaged. There are large potholes in the direct flow of traffic in the asphalt and large areas of cracking in the concrete surrounding the storm drains. Much of the paint and striping has been worn down or away, including instructional traffic flow markings and fire lane indicators. People continuously enter the parking lot from the wrong point, going counter to the direction traffic should be going.
SKE Construction has been to the site and provided us with a two-phase quote. They quoted us with a BuyBoard contract amount of $74,980.40 for Phase 1 of construction, which is for the north side of the parking lot, as well as $56,940.52 for Phase 2, the south side parking lot. At this time, we would like to move forward with construction of both proposed phases and have them constructed at one time. The initial quotes provided were not the BuyBoard contract prices however the amounts listed above are. There is a $360.67 difference in the prices once we received the BuyBoard contracts.
The budget funding for this project is $63,800 and would therefore require a budget amendment to cover the additional cost. We fill that performing both phases at the same time will cut down in cost, due to mobilization fees, as well as allow the contractor to get in and out of there as quickly as possible, rather than dragging the process into two different phases.
Fiscal/Budgetary Impact:
The total construction cost is $131,920.92. Currently, $63,800 is budgeted in the CIP Fund (090-420-49030) for the proje...
