Gentlemen:
Attached is a tabulation of the bids opened March 19, 1973 on Central
Park Improvements and Fencing for the Mini-Bike Park.
Wolfe Construction Company is low bidder for both jobs, at $21,456.00
• and $5,755.60 respectively, for a total of $27,211.60. This compares
with totals of $27,800.00 and $4,000.00 in City funds and matching
money, for a total available amount of $31,800.00.
Wolfe Construction Company is presently under contract for similar park
development in the City of Baytown for the amount of $130,000.00. They
have had previous experience with this type of work in Oklahoma for the
Corps of Engineers. We have found their work to be of a satisfactory
nature and we recommend that the contract for both jobs be awarded to
them.
Yours very truly,
~ ~-
