PREP ARED BY:
SUBJECT:
INTRODUCTION:
The purpose of this agenda item is to accept and award the bid
for Project 96-11, Brooksville Hills Storm Sewer Improvement.
BACKGROUND:
This project is in the 1996 Capital Improvement Program as part
of the Water Resources budget. This project is being
constructed to alleviate a backyard drainage problem in
Brooksville Hills 5th and 6th Addition. The surrounding City
storm sewer system is under-capacity to handle a standard 10-
year storm event, which causes temporary flooding during a
storm event of this size or larger.
In order to alleviate this problem, the City is proposing to
construct an open ditch along with storm sewer pipe in the
backyards of Brooksville Hills 5th and 6th Additions to provide
for extra drainage capacity to the existing system.
The owner of the townhomes in Brooksville Hills 5th Addition,
Fran Otto, has agreed to pay for the sodding that will take place
on his properties. This amount has been agreed upon
beforehand and amounts to $1,515.00. If he wishes to have
more sod placed on his property, Mr. Otto has agreed to pay this
additional work at the contract unit bid prices. Also, Mr. Otto
has signed drainage easements in favor of the City, which
allows this work to be done.
DISCUSSION:
This project is scheduled to be completed in 1996. The CIP
budgeted amount for this project was $60,000.00 to be drawn
from the Storm Water Utility Budget. This project was bid with
an alternative for concrete and plastic pipe for a portion of pipe
work that will occur in the back yards where there will be no
traffic load. This was done to see if bids would come in lower
for the plastic pipe alternative. There was also an alternative bid

r-
for extending the pipe 72 feet which would move the outlet past
the existing maintenance road to City well number 4. This road
periodically washes out due to large storm events. Extending
the pipe past this portion of the road would prevent this
problem. Bids were received from eight contractors. In all
eight bids, the plastic pipe alternative was lower than the
concrete alternative. The cost savings by using plastic pipe in
the backyard area is $2,934.50. Bids ranged from a low of
$70,284.25 for the plastic pipe alternative including the pipe
extension to a high bid of $110,302.92. The low bidder for the
plastic pipe alternative and the 72 foot pipe extension was
Kusske Construction Co. The engineer's estimate for plastic
pipe and the extension was $70,412.00.
If the plastic pipe alternative would have been chosen without
the 72 foot pipe extension, this would have resulted in a
different low bidder, which was S. W. Lee Construction. The
specifications allow the City to select the alternative which is in
the best interest of the City.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternatives are as follows:
1. Award bid for Project 96-11 in the amount of $70,284.25 for
the plastic pipe and the 72 foot pipe extension alternative to
Kusske Construction Co. Inc.
2. Award bid for Project 96-11 in the amount of$63,677.50 for
the plastic pipe alternative without the 72 foot extension to
S.W. Lee Construction.
3. Deny this item for a specific reason.
4. Table this item for specific reason.
RECOMMENDATION: Alternative No.1: Award bid to Kusske Construction Co. Inc.
for $70,284.25.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: The cost of Project 96-11 will be paid for from the Storm Water
Utility Budget. The balance in this account is sufficient to pay
for this project cost.
