HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 06.k Date: June 4, 2018 Item No. REJECTION OF BIDS FOR THE LAKEVILLE AREA ARTS CENTER MASONRY REHABILITATION Proposed Action Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to reject bids for the Lakeville Area Arts Center masonry rehabilitation. Overview Based on an evaluation of the arts center in 2017, the City included funds for the rehabilitation of the exterior masonry in the 2018 budget. Work to be completed included repair, rehabilitation, and repointing of the masonry around the exterior of the main arts center building and four additive alternates for additional work to the arts center, the attached and detached garages, and the monument sign. Five contractors attended the pre-bid meeting on April 10 which included a physical examination of the facility exterior and bids were opened on April 19. Only one contractor responded to the request for bids and the base bid, while in compliance with the specifications, exceeded the budgeted amount by slightly more than $104,000.00. The approved budget for this project was $102,000.00. There are masonry repairs that need to be made to the facility and staff is exploring alternatives to complete the most needed repairs within the funding available for the project. Primary Issues to Consider • Why did only one contractor respond? In checking with the contractors, the primary reason was the short time frame for the masonry work. Because of the arts center schedule and the upcoming landscaping project, the time frame for the masonry rehabilitation was limited to the month of June.
