Koch, Public Works Director CITY OF DUBUQUE, IOWA MEMORANDUM April 9, 2001 TO: Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Michael A. Koch, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Sanitary Sewer Reconstruction - Alley between Rhomberg and Garfield, from Dock to Fengler INTRODUCTION The enclosed resolution provides for the award of the construction contract for the Sanitary Sewer Reconstruction Project - Alley between Rhomberg and Garfield, from Dock to Fengler. BACKGROUND The existing 8"-diameter sanitary sewer in this alley was constructed in 1912. The sewer has been a source of periodic back-ups in the past several years. The pipe is extremely flat with areas of settlement, and requires frequent flushing by the sewer crews. The only solution to this problem is the reconstruction of the sewer to a larger 12"-diameter pipe to achieve the required capacity, given the flat slope of the sewer. The project provides for the construction of approximately 834 feet of sanitary sewer located in this alley. DISCUSSION Sealed bids were received for the project on April 5, 2001. The results of the bidding process are as follows: Tschiggfrie Excavating WC Stewart Construction Connolly Construction $117,238.89 193,799.90 194,078.20 The Iow bid submitted by Tschiggfrie Excavating of Dubuque, Iowa is 2.51% below the engineer's estimate. The completion date for the project is September 28, 2001. RECOMMENDATION I would recommend that the City Council award the contract for the Sanitary Sewer Reconstruction Project - Alley between Rhomberg and Garfield, from Dock to Fengler to Tschiggfrie Excavating of Dubuque, Iowa in the amount of $117,238.89. BUDGET IMPACT The summary for this project is: Estimate Bid Construction Contract Contingency Engineering $120,255.05 12,025.50 19,842.08 $117,238.89 12,025.50 19,842.08 Total Project Cost $152,122.63 $149,106.47 The project will be funded with the Sanitary Sewer Construction Fund from a Fiscal Year 2002 appropriation in the amount of $126,500. The cost has escalated from the initial estimate due to the necessary increased pipe size, along with the extreme difficulty of excavation. The remaining unfunded balance of $22,606.47 will be covered by the Sanitary Sewer Reconstruction Fund for Sanitary Sewer Maintenance, which has a current balance of $60,463.13.
