BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
City block walls are occasionally destroyed around town by vehicle accidents or intentional vandalism. In 2014, Staff implemented the Fence Repair Program in lieu of hiring a contractor on a case-by-case basis to avoid time delays and minimize City liability. This project will allow the City to retain a contractor on an "as-needed" basis to quickly respond to any necessary block wall repairs during Fiscal Years 2025/26 and 2026/27. The initial term of the Contract is two years and includes the option to extend if mutually agreeable to the City and the Contractor.
The specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date is May 14, 2025. The project estimate is $50,000. Staff intends to utilize the City's Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act portion of the adopted purchasing policy (for projects estimated between $50,000 and $200,000). Staff will provide a breakdown of the bids received at the time the project is accepted.
