Gus Psihoyos recommends award of the contract to the low bidder, East Iowa
Construction, in the amount of $280,207.75, which is 11.06% under the engineer's
estimate of probable cost.
The average preliminary assessment approved by the City Council on February 3,

bid, the average assessment would be approximately $889.

The enclosed resolution authorizes the award of the construction contract for the SRF
Green AIIey Bid Set 1 Project.
DISCUSSION
This project will involve the reconstruction of three alleys in the Bee Branch Watershed.
The alley locations are as follows:
• Johnson Street to Windsor Avenue (Between Providence Street and Windsor
Avenue)
• 14th Street to 15th Street (Between Cedar Street and Maple Street)
• Foye Street to Ellis Street (Between Almond Street and W. Locust Street)
This project will reconstruct the first set of alleys for the SRF Green Alleys in the Bee
Branch Watershed as part of the Bee Branch Watershed Flood mitigation Project. The
Engineering Department is working on the design and construction documents for the
remainder of the alleys. Additional construction bid sets will be developed in 5 to 10 alley
groupings. The first two years of alley reconstruction include no utilities, except sewer
manhole repairs where the project affects them.
The Engineering Department survey staff is currently performing topographic survey on
the first year alleys. Engineering staff plan to initiate alley bid packages on a monthly
basis until all of the alleys are designed.
The reconstruction of the alleys will include:
— Removal of the existing alley pavement
— Excavation of the subgrade to allow the placement of clean stone for a storage
medium
— Installation of a concrete border to hold brick pavers together
— Installation of HMA headers at the alley intersection with the intersecting streets.
— Reconstruction of the pavement surface with interlocking concrete pavers
This project will reconstruct the alleys into green alleys. These alleys allow rainwater to
infiltrate into the pavement rather than runoff into the storm sewers. This infiltration allows
for filtering of the water and recharge back into the aquifer. Monitoring wells are also
planned to be installed so that water quality improvements can be documented.
The project construction documents will follow the Statewide Urban Design and
Specifications (SUDAS).
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) have reviewed and approved the
plans so that the City cost can be covered with SRF funds.
This project will be the second alley project to have special assessments. The first project
was the Green Alley Permeable Pavers Project (17th — 18th between Jackson &
Washington Streets).
BID RESULTS
The City of Dubuque received the following bids for the SRG Green Alley Project - Bid Set

will be reduced from the original estimates due to the favorable bids received.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the contract for the for the SRF Green Alley Bid Set 1 Project be
awarded to East Iowa Construction of Epworth, Iowa in the amount of $ 280,207.75 which
is 11.06% under the engineer's estimate of probable cost. The majority of the cost
savings was in the bid price of the brick pavers. The IDNR have reviewed the bid tab and
concur with the award of the contract.
