SUBJECT: Public Hearing for the (re -) Request For Bid (RFB) for the Construction of
the ARC Transfer Center Phase I project
DATE: November 1, 2012
BACKGROUND
In August 2010 staff of ECIA, The Jule and Area Residential Care (ARC) began
collaborating on a construction of a transfer center, to be located at the new ARC, Inc.
facility located at the JFK Circle (the old Econo Foods building). The parties agreed to
pursue the project which, based on cost, was been split into two phases: Phase I is to
be a canopy attached to the new ARC facility that will offer protection from the weather
for passengers waiting to board and de- boarding from fixed route and paratransit buses.
Phase I also allows The Jule's Bus Operators access to the building's restroom
facilities.
DISCUSSION
In October 2010 a Public Transit Infrastructure Grant (PTIG) for $298,357 was awarded
for the Phase I construction to The Jule. The PTIG funding requires a 20% local match,
which is being provided by ARC, Inc. On March 28, 2012 City Council awarded IIW a
contract for the final design, compilation of construction documents, construction bid
and oversight of the construction of the Phase I canopy, as well as the preliminary
design work of the Phase II portion of the project. On May 7, 2012 and as part of this
project an Easement Agreement, which includes the area immediately below the
canopy area as well as driveway access to /from the canopy, between the City of
Dubuque and ARC, Inc. was approved by City Council.
A committee, which was comprised of City staff (David Heiar) Jule Staff (Barbara Morck
and Jodi Johnson), ECIA staff (Mark Munson) and ARC staff (Jon Romaine and Karl
Stieglitz), and a member of the Transit Advisory Board (Matt Esser), was formed to
review the design elements of the canopy. All parties came to an agreement on the
elements in the final design in May 2012, and the blueprints and required construction
documents (e.g. building plans and specifications) have been prepared for release
through a Public Bid process (aka Request for Bid).
On August 28th at 2pm Kevin Firnstahl /City Clerk opened the five (5) bids that had been
submitted in response to the RFB. Two (2) of bids were rejected outright for failing to
submit the required Certifications and Assurances as outlined in the RFB. The
remaining three (3) bids were reviewed and found to be complete.
The amount of funding budgeted and available for construction is approximately
$223,516. The base bids submitted by the 3 eligible responders exceeded that amount
by as much as $95,000, and even when taking into consideration the Alternative
Add /Deductions, the lowest bid came in $47,000 over the amount budgeted for the
construction portion of the ARC project. Shortly thereafter I met with Mark
Fassbinder /IIW to discuss this dilemma and immediately began working with him to
identify where some savings in the project could be found that would then reduce the
overall cost of construction. The City Attorney's office was consulted and concurred that
it would be best to recommend to City Council that all bids be rejected; this
recommendation was approved by City Council at their September 17, 2012 meeting.
Since that date and in order to reduce the project's total cost, several changes were
made to the scope of the project, e.g. type of material to be used for the canopy roof,
removal of metal sheeting from the underside /supporting rafters, etc.
The revised plans and documents have been prepared and ready for release to the
public on October 18, 2012. The City Attorney's office was consulted and found that the
following time line for the release of the RFB meets with the City's policies and
practices:
