INTER-DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM

To:Scott C. Stiles

From:William E. Murray
Dept.:City Manager 

Dept.: Public Works 
Subject:

Award of contract to Continental Concrete Cutting, Inc., to provide asphalt and concrete saw cutting services.  (Cost:  $200,000) (Action Item)

Date:5/8/2018

OBJECTIVE

To recommend that the City Council award a contract to Continental Concrete Cutting, Inc., to provide saw cutting services for the removal of asphalt or concrete as needed throughout the city.

BACKGROUND

The Water and Sewer Services staff perform maintenance improvements throughout the city, which includes the removal of asphalt or concrete. Saw cutting provides a cleaner cut and a stronger bond with the existing asphalt. In situations where the asphalt is 12 to 18 inches thick, saw cutting is a more efficient and safe method as compared to using a jack hammer. 

DISCUSSION

Due to a lack of personnel and proper saw cutting equipment for large asphalt projects, the City advertised an invitation to bid for this service. The bid was advertised on January 31, 2018, and on March 5, 2018, one (1) bid was received and deemed responsive.

 

Bidder Name

   Amount of Bid
Continental Concrete Cutting, Inc.    $174.00 per hour

 

City staff reviewed the proposal and negotiated an agreement with Continental Concrete Cutting, Inc. for their services.

FINANCIAL IMPACT

The contract will be funded by Water Funds appropriated in this Fiscal Year 2017/18 budget in an amount not to exceed $200,000.  There is no impact to the General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the City Council:

 

  • Award a contract to Continental Concrete Cutting, Inc., for asphalt and concrete saw cutting services in the amount not to exceed $200,000; and

 

  • Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement on behalf of the City, and make minor modifications as appropriate thereto.
