Of the 275; 48 are hazardous and need to be replaced. Also 17 street ramps are also in need of replacement. I invited four contractors to provide quotes for the replacement of cracked sidewalk panels. I have received two quotes for this work. Frontier Concrete & Masonry, Inc. provided a break out of the work as requested and J.S. Krey Construction Co. provided a flat unit cost per panel and did not provide a price on the street ramps. Item #1 included panels that I deemed "hazardous" and need replacement. Item #2 included the rest of the cracked panels on the properties that have hazardous panels. Item #3 includes 17 street ramp transition panels that should be replaced. Frontier Concrete & Masonry quoted a price of $258.62 per panel for the first 48 and then $184.21 per panel for the balance of cracked panel on the same properties. J.S. Krey quoted $265.00 per panel for all 163 panels. The reason behind this bid unit is if the Council wants the owner to participate in the costs, we will not be visiting the same properties next year if the other existing cracked panels shift and become "hazardous". If the Council elected to accept items 1,2 & 3, the total cost with Frontier would be . $45,215. Some of the panels are also part of the driveway for the residents and I can break this farther down per lot ifnecessary. The quote includes saw cutting the joints, removing the existing concrete panel and hauling away. Temporary cones would be set in place until the concrete is poured and dirt and seed would restore any damage to the boulevard area. My recommendation is for the Council to approve item #1, 2 & 3. If the Council would like to replace all of the cracked panels in town, another 112 would get replaced at a cost of $20,631.00. ~!
