There were a total of 8 bids received. The following list provides the bidder's name and their total bid.

Further analysis of the low bid; adding overhead according to the City's Assessment Policy and dividing it into the cost for the two specific neighborhoods results in the following total project costs: • $3,719,403.67 Total Project Cost for the Venus/Crystal Neighborhood • $1,493,126.36 Total Project Cost for the Grant/Noble/Lake Lane Neighborhood Assistant City Engineer Anderson reported each of these total project costs were then analyzed for the assessable cost which as described in the City's Assessment Policy is half of the street project cost. The results of this analysis is as follows: • Venus/Crystal Neighborhood Assessment Rate of $8,614.27 per unit as compared to the Feasibility Report estimate of$11,450. • Grant/Noble/Lake Lane Neighborhood Assessment Rate of $5,563.07 per unit as compared to the Feasibility Report estimate of$6,600. Assistant City Engineer Anderson indicated in order to move both of these projects forward, it would be appropriate for the Council to consider adopting Resolution 2015-015 which declares the Cost to be Assessed and Orders the Preparation of the Assessment Roll. The second, Resolution 2015-016 Sets the Date for the Assessment Hearing as April 27, 2015 for the Venus/Crystal Neighborhood. The next two Resolutions do the same for the Grant/Noble/Lake
