| DISCUSSION: |
On March 23, 2004, (M&C C-20000) the City Council authorized an engineering agreement with Kimley-Horn & Associates, Inc. for Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Contract LXX (70). This project provides for the replacement of the deteriorated water and sanitary sewer mains as indicated on the following streets and alleyways:
| Street | From | To | Scope of Work | | Monticello Drive | Rivercrest Drive | Hamilton Avenue | Water | | Potomac Avenue | Virginia Place | Fourth Street | Water | | Williamsburg Lane | Bristol Road | Bailey Avenue | Water | | West Jarvis Street | South Adams Street | Lipscomb Street | Sewer | | Montgomery Street | Linden Avenue | Byers Avenue | Sewer | Alleyway Between Hillcrest | El Campo Avenue | Bryce Avenue | Sewer | | Street and Thomas Place | | | | | Alleyway Between Fourth | Monticello Drive | Boland Street | Sewer | | Street and Hamilton Avenue | | | |
The project was advertised for bid on June 18, 2009, and June 25, 2009, in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. On August 13, 2009, the following bids were received: Bidders | Bid Amount | Time of Completion | Texas United Excavators, LLC* | $1,723,058.50 | 240 Calendar Days | Burnsco Construction, Inc. | $1,758,144.40 | | Barson Utilities, Inc. | $1,982,268.25 | | | Conatser Construction TX, LP | $1,986,343.50 | | SLC Construction, LLC | $2,065,135.04 | |
*The apparent low bidder Texas United Excavators, LLC, (TUE) has been determined by staff to be non-responsive to the contract specifications due to failure to comply with the prequalification pipe size restriction. TUE is prequalified to only install water and/or sanitary sewer mains 12 inches in diameter and smaller. This project includes 370 linear feet of 18 inch diameter sewer pipe. In addition to the contract amount $24,000.00 (Water: $8,000.00 and Sewer: $16,000.00) is required for material testing and inspection and $56,800.60 (Water: $25,000.00 and Sewer: $31,800.60) is provided for change order contingencies. M/WBE - Burnsco Construction, Inc., is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to nine percent M/WBE participation and documenting good faith. Burnsco Construction, Inc., identified several subcontracting and supplier opportunities. However, the M/WBE contacted in the areas identified did not submit the lowest bids. The City's goal on this project is 22 percent. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7. |
