These manholes are in poor condition and are seriously deteriorating and warrant timely action. City staff completed the plans and specifications for this project. Two bids were received and opened by the City Clerk on November 30, 1999 as listed below: Company Amount 1. Steve Bubalo Construction Co. $293,400 2. Clarke Construction Corp $301,600 The low bidder, Steve Bubalo Construction Co., is properly licensed to do the work and has appropriate work experience as well as being the lowest responsible bidder for the project. A construction contingency of 15-20%is necessary due to the possibility of poor sub-base, soil and low groundwater. Construction management, administration, and inspection will be at an hourly not to exceed 10%of the project total. 1 AGENDA ITEM-Z. 4 ; ..
