INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolution authorizes the award of the construction contract for the Dubuque
Industrial Center South, Building Pad 1 Sanitary Sewer Extension.
BACKGROUND
During the design of the Dubuque Industrial Center South, it was identified that future
sanitary sewer extensions may be required if the individual building pads were subdivided
into smaller lots. The base bid, for the Dubuque Industrial Center South grading and utilities
project provided sanitary sewer service to the Southeast corner of each of the building pads.
Sanitary sewer extensions were designed and bid as an alternate during the grading project.
The extensions would extend sanitary sewers along the South side of each of the building
pads and would allow for subdividing the pads into smaller parcels. The sewer extensions
were not constructed during the grading project to avoid installing sanitary sewers that may
not be needed if a single user were to acquire the entire building pad. Instead, the sewer
extensions, for each of the building pads, will be constructed as necessary to provide
service for subdivided building pads.
DISCUSSION
Building Pad 1 has been subdivided for the Verena Street Coffee development. This
subdivision requires the extension of the sanitary sewer along the South side of the building
pad, to provide sanitary sewer service to the remainder of the parcel.
BID RESULTS
Sealed bids were received on the project on April 7, 2016. McDermott Excavating of
Dubuque, Iowa submitted the low bid in the amount of$77,256.85. This amount is 42.88%
below the estimate of probable cost. A summary of the bid proposals is attached:
