&EST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITE. Agenda Date Requested: October 24. 1994 Requested By: Charles Harrington cn# Department: Planning X Report Resolution Ordinance Exhibits: SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION Background As Council may recall, on September 26, staff made a report on the need for an emergency relocation of a water line along Underwood Road, a distance of approximately 800 feet from Carlow Lane. At the time of the report we had an estimated cost of over $24,000 from Angel Brothers, Inc and an estimated cost of only $17,000 for the water line. Rather than pay the additional $7,000 for a contract change order to Angel Brothers, we stated we would bid the project, have the emergency work done and bring the contracted amount back to the City Council for ratification. We received four bids for the work in the following amounts: Furlow Services, Inc. R. L. Utilities . Pas-Key Construction Services, Inc. Angel Brothers, Inc. $15,700 $16,800 $17,865 $24,725 Staff accepted the low bid in the amount of $15,700 from Furlow Services, Inc. The work has been completed and the customers disturbed for a minimal time. Recommendation The staff recommends that the Council ratify the emergency relocation work performed in the amount of $15,700 by Furlow Services, Inc. Action Required by Council: Ratify the award of a construction contract for the emergency relocation of a water line along Underwood Road in the amount of $15,700 to Furlow Services, Inc. The funds to be used from the Utilities Capital Improvement Contingency Fund.
