Since there was only one bidder, and the price proposed was beyond the City's current budget, Staff
contacted the bidder to deteI1J1ine whether a lower price could be negotiated for this Project. G & G
Builders submitted a revised proposal as follows:
Base Bid $62,666
Additive Bid ltem #1 Replace Handrail Along Water Feature $5,300
Additive Bid Item #2 Install Bridge Across Water Feature $15.000
Total $82,966
Staff consulted with the City Attorney's office, which advised that the City Council had three options: (1)
the City Council could accept the bid as originally submitted, and award the project to G&G Builders; (2)
the City Council cou.ld reject this bid and direet Staff to re-bid the project; or (3) the City Council eould
accept the bid as submitted, award the project, and direct Staff to issue a deductive change order prior to
issuing the Notice to Proceed to reduce the project cost to the anlOunt proposed by G&G Builders, as
discussed above.
If the City Couneil elects to award the project as originally bid, the Council will also need to approve an
additional appropriation from the Unappropriated General Fund Reserve in the amount of$62,216.
Tflhe City Council elects to rejcet all bids and re-bid the project, it will delay the project construction until
late spring. Further, there will be added costs of advertising, printing and Staff time associated with the
re·bidding process.
Staff recommends that the City Council award contract to G & G Builders and direct Starf to issue a
deductive change order prior to issuing the Notice to Proceed to reduce the project eost to $82,966. Staff
further recommends that both additive bid items be included in the Project The handrail adjacent to the
water feature is rusted out and is in need of replacement. Further, the current play structure includes a
small bridge across the water feature, which, when it is removed, will leave a void over the water feature.
If City Council elects this option, Staff anticipates that total cost for the project will not exceed $91,262.
This option will utilize $28,516 from Unappropriated General Fund Reserves as opposed to $62,216.
In awarding the contract as Staff recommends, the award is 1egally required to be in the full amount
proposed in G&G Builder's submitted bid price. After award of contract Staff would then prepare a
deductive change order in the revised amounts proposed above for signature Jìom G & G Builders. In
conjunetion with the deductive change order, Staff will complete a budget change that will reflect the
reduction in the project cost. These steps will oCCur berore the Notice to Proceed is issued on the project.
If, despite Staff's previous negotiations with G&G Builders, the parties cannot come to a final agreement
on the deductive change order, the City may cancel the contract at little or no additional cost. Starr does
not anticipate that this step will become necessary.
RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of Staff that the City Council adopt the
resolution in Attachment 1 awarding the contract including Additive Bid Items #1 and #2 to G & G
Builders Incorporated with Council's further direction that Staff issue a deductive ehange order prior to
issuing the Notice to Proceed to reduce the Project's cost to $82,966. It is also recommended that the City
Council approve the Budget Change, Attachment 2.
