INTRODUCTION
The attached resolution provides for the acceptance of the public improvement
construction contract for the North Grandview Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project.
BACKGROUND
North Grandview Avenue from Loras Boulevard to Rosedale Avenue was last
reconstructed in 1992. Since that time, the concrete joints have become badly
deteriorated. The pavement ride is rough, and city staff have received many complaints
from the public.
DISCUSSION
The North Grandview Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project was completed by Eastern
Iowa Excavating and Concrete, LLC. in the final contract amount of $382,449.82 which is
a 7.8% increase above the original contract amount of $354,756.33.
The additional cost is due to additional pavement rehabilitation needed on Delaware
Street east of North Grandview Avenue. Also, additional curb and gutter and sidewalk
needed to be removed and replaced near a city owned lot.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council accept the Public Improvements and authorized the
payment of $382,449.82 to Eastern Iowa Excavating & Concrete, LLC for the North
Grandview Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project.
BUDGET IMPACT
The project cost for the North Grandview Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project is as
