AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARD-
ING THE CITY’S STANDARDIZED CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE
COUNTY ROAD 21 TRAIL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (PRK19-000002)
GOAL AREA AND
OBJECTIVE:

1. Integrate trails to link neighborhoods with city and regional assets.
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to ask the City Council to accept bids and
award a construction contract for the County Road 21 Trail Improvement Project.
History
In November of 2018, the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (SMSC) an-
nounced that they would be providing grants to public entities for the purpose of
constructing new trails. The total amount of funds that they were providing was
$300,000 and the maximum amount any one public entity could receive was
$100,000. The conditions of the grant were that the public entities had to provide
a minimum 20% match and that the trails had to be completed in 2019.
The City applied for the grant and requested funding for the construction of new
trail along the west side of County Road 21 from CSAH 42 south to Fountain Hills
Road. This segment is the last gap in a 7-mile trail system along County Road 21
through the City of Prior lake. On January 7, 2019 the City was notified by the
SMSC that we had been approved for the maximum trail grant of $100,000.
At its January 22, 2019 meeting, the City Council authorized the preparation of
plans, specifications and bid documents for the County Road 21 Trail Improve-
ment Project.
Current Circumstances
The City received a total of seven (7) bids on May 8, 2019. The bids have been
checked and tabulated. BKJ Excavating from Jordan, Minnesota submitted the
low bid in the amount of $74,486.70. The lowest bid was under the engineer’s
construction estimate of $97,739.25. The bid summary is provided as follows:
COMPANY BID AMOUNT
BKJ EXCAVATING $74,486.70

SUNRAM CONSTRUCTION $101,904.00
URBAN COMPANIES $112,392.00
BARBER CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. $128,510.00
Conclusion

FINANCIAL
IMPACT:
The cost estimate that was prepared as part of the application to the SMSC for the
grant broke down the project costs as follows:
Construction Costs $104,150.00
Contingency (10%) $ 10,415.00
Subtotal $114,565.00
Indirect Costs (28%) $ 32,078.20
Total $146,643.20
Based on this estimate, the City will be contributing $46,643.20 towards the project
cost which exceeds the required 20% match.
Based on the bids received the project costs are as follows:
Construction Costs $ 74,486.70
Contingency (10%) $ 7,450.00
Subtotal $ 81,936.70
Indirect Costs $ 31,960.00
Total $113,896.70
With the bids recieved, the City will be contributing $22,779.34 towards the project
cost which meets the required 20% match. This will result in refunding the SMSC
approximately $8900 of the trail grant.
The City’s portion of the project cost will be funded through the City’s Park Dedica-
tion Fund. Park Dedication Funds can be used for the construction of new park
and recreation facilities, including trails.
