BACKGROUND:
On March 7, 2000, City Council approved a Design Services Contract with Halff and
Assocites, Inc. for the Parr Park Restroom Facility Improvement Project.
On June 27, 2000, two bids were received for the construction of the Parr Park
Restroom Facility. The base bids were as follows:
Keck and Company $ 125,523
T. W. Foster, Inc. $ 220,810
One of the two base bids received was less than the Architect's Opinion of Probable
Cost of $ 158,830. f
Staff thoroughly researched the project history and financial conditions of Keck and
Company. Staff also visited with owners' representatives of numerous completed
projects and found they were satisfied, which further indicates that the low bid of Keck
and Company should be accepted.
Construction time for this project is 140 days.
Staff recommends approval.
