INTRODUCTION:
BACKGROUND'
ALTERNATIVES'
The purpose of this Agenda item is to receive authorization to
re-advertise for bids for Project #93-02, Carriage Hills Parkway. Bids
were previously received and rejected on August 15, 1994.
Project #93-02 is the segment of Carriage Hills Parkway from CSAH 21
easterly to Pike Lake Trail. Please see the attached drawing for the
location.
On July 18, 1994, the City Council approved Resolution 94-38 approving
the plans and specifications and authorizing the advertisement of bids.
There were two bids received on August 15, 1994. The City Council
rejected the two bids because the Iow bidder was substantially above the
engineer's estimate. Staff believes that the bids were not competitive due
to the time of year.
Eminent domain proceedings were authorized by the City Council for land
acquisition on December 14, 1993. Through the eminent domain
proceedings, the City will take possession of the land in February. The
cost of the right way acquisition will be determined in future commissioner
hearings.
The City Council has previously approved the plans for this project. The
Resolution sets a bid opening date of March 13, 1995. Bids will be
submitted to the Council at the March 20, 1995 meeting.
Funding for this project is from the Municipal State Aid account and
$60,000 from the 1993 construction bond issue. The City will deposit with
the District Court an amount equal to the appraisal value of the property
which is required for right-of-way the week of February 6, 1995.
The alternatives are as follows:
o
Approve the Resolution ordering an Advertisement for Bid with a
bid opening date of March 13, 1995, at 10:00 A.M.
