DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: REVIEWED BY: AGENDA ITEM: OCTOBER 15, 2001 8A LANOL LEICHTY, WATER RESOURCES COORDINATOR SUE MCDERMOTT, CITY ENGINEER CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING QUOTES AND AWARDING THE CONTRACT FOR CATES STREET CHANNEL IMPROVEMENT, CITY PROJECT 01-15. DISCUSSION: History The purpose of this agenda item is to award the contract for the Cates Street Channel Improvement, Project 01-15. The project consists of dredging and stabilizing the channel and appurtenant work. This project is included in the 2001 Capital Improvement Program. Originally, this project was scheduled to be constructed in the fall of 1998. The City was unable to obtain easements on the east end of the channel on the current Creekside Estates property. Since that time, the City has obtained drainage and utility easements over this portion of the channel and is able to proceed with the improvement. In addition, the original design, which called for straightening the channel, was changed to save trees and maintain the natural alignment of the channel which meanders through the woods. This change of design has resulted in significant savings estimated to be $40,000+/-. Current Circumstances Proposals were received and tallied on October 3, 2001. Three quotes were submitted. The figures have been checked and tabulated. The low quote was submitted by Lloyd Excavating, Inc., of Prior Lake, MN in the amount of $15,296.50. The engineer's estimate was $26,765.00.

Conclusion Staff recommends that the Council award the contract for the Cates Street Channel Improvement Project. The cost of Project 01-15 will be paid for from the Storm Water Utility Budget. The budgeted amount for the Cates Street Channel Improvement Project was $60,000.00. The budgeted cost of the project is much higher than the quotes received because the design of the project was changed to save trees and maintain the character and meander of the channel through the woods. The alternatives are as follows: 1. Adopt the attached resolution which awards bid for Project 01- 15 in the amount of $15,296.50 to Lloyd Construction, Inc., and authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into the necessary contract on behalf of the City. 2.
