<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 2 <br />contractors use this item to bury incidental items or find efficiencies with mean and methods that can save them <br />money and effort. Bituminous material costs are always changing and with the recent rise in oil, the engineer’s <br />estimate had been more conservative than typical to try and anticipate rising costs of bituminous. <br />The Concrete Sill bid item may carry a small amount of risk as it is relatively new bid item and some contractors <br />or sub contractors may not be familiar with the specifications and expectations associated with the bid item. The <br />intent is to create a sill for sidewalk adjacent to curb and gutter to rest on to eliminate the sidewalk from settling <br />below the curb over time. <br /> <br />The Remove Light Foundation, Lighting Unit Type LP1, Lighting Unit Type LP2, and Light Foundation Design E <br />Modified were the items with higher costs in the engineer’s estimate than Bituminous Roadway’s bid. Over the <br />past 24 months, we have seen the cost of electrical related raw materials rise exponentially and despite <br />estimating with that inflation in mind, the lighting items still came in above estimate. <br /> <br />Upon further examination of the apparent low bid, the bid provided by Bituminous Roadways was found to be <br />responsive and not materially unbalanced. <br /> <br />Staff recommends Council accept the bids, awarding the contract to Bituminous Roadways for the 2022 Arden Hill <br />City Hall Parking Lot Final Design projects, City Project PW-20-0103. <br /> <br />HR GREEN, INC <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Jordan Horejsi, PE <br />Project Manager <br />
