TO: Don Ashworth, City Manager
FROM: Gary Warren, City Engineer 614/2■
DATE: June 21, 1989
1 SUBJ: Award of Bids for Lake Drive/Trunk Highway 101 Realignment
File No. 88-22
Attached is a memorandum from BRW which summarizes the results of
our June 15, 1989 bid opening for the Lake Drive/Trunk Highway
101 realignment project. As noted in the report, we experienced
a very competitive bidding climate and were very pleased to see
that the low bidder was approximately 24% underneath the engi-
neer' s estimate on this project. Northdale Construction, low
bidder, most recently worked in Chanhassen for the Metropolitan
Waste Control Commission constructing the Lake Virginia forcemain
1 and our Church Road improvements.
This will be a unit priced contract, and as such the actual final
total construction dollars will be based on the actual units and
quantities constructed in the field. As noted in the construc-
tion schedule, we desire to break ground on this project on or
about July 10, 1989 with final completion scheduled for August of
1 1990.
I concur with the letter of recommendation from Mr. Ehret that
this project be awarded to Northdale Construction Company of
1 Rogers, Minnesota in the amount of $2 ,203 , 218 . 38. As noted, this
award should be conditioned on the City receiving the permits
from MnDOT, the Army Corps of Engineers and the City for wetland
' alteration.
Attachment: June 16, 1989 letter from BRW.
