I SUBJ: Award of Bids for Lyman Boulevard Surcharge
Project No. 93 -3213-1
On Tuesday, August 22, 1995, bids were received and opened for the Lyman Boulevard
Surcharge Project No. 93- 3213-1. A total of six bids were received. The low bid was submitted
by Friedges Landscaping, Inc. at $69,940.00. The second low bid was received from Shafer
Contracting Company at $73,490.00. Both of these bids are significantly lower than the
engineer's estimate of $124,500.
In reviewing all of the bids received, it became apparent that the major difference between the
two low bids and the others was the price of the common borrow material. This led staff to
believe that Friedges has a source of common fill material close to the project. In discussing the
matter with Friedges, our assumption was confirmed. In fact, the material source is just down
the road near the intersection of Trunk Highway 41 and Lyman Boulevard. The result of this
fortunate timing is a cost savings of nearly 50% for the City and the contractor has a local site
to place excess material from another project in Chaska. This is a good example of a win /win
project situation.
Friedges has performed satisfactorily on previous jobs within the City. ,Staff therefore
recommends that the Lyman Boulevard Surcharge Project No. 93 -3213-1 contract be awarded to
Friedges Landscaping, Inc. in the amount of $69,940.00.
