The <br />water line is part of a previous goal to provide water service, where economically <br />feasible, to citizens without existing service available. This water line will be <br />approximately 1,343 linear feet and is intended to provide water service and improved <br />fire protection for residents along North "H" Street between Mockingbird and <br />Meadowlark, south of the Meadowcrest Subdivision. This line will also provide for a <br />loop within the water distribution system. Design/engineering has been completed on <br />the project utilizing City staff. On January 23, 1996, the City received competitive <br />bids from eight qualified underground utility contractors (see attached Bid Tabulation). <br />The low bid was submitted by Johnny Wehba Backhoe Service in the amount of <br />526,316.50. <br />Staff has reviewed the bids submitted and determined the low bid from Johnny <br />Wehba Backhoe Service is well within budget.
