Box 490 <br />Elk River, MN 55330-0490 <br /> <br />RE: MACON STREET/RIVERVIEW DRIVE IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />After the close of the assessment hearing for the Macon Street/Riverview Drive improvements <br />Monday evening, if the council adopts the resolution approving the assessment roll, it would be <br />appropriate to then consider the attached resolution accepting the bid and authorizing execution <br />of the contract with C.W. Houle, Inc. for the construction of the Macon Street/Riverview Drive <br />improvements. <br /> <br />In previous correspondence to the City Council dated June 30, 1997, a copy of which is <br />attached to this memo, we had tabulated the bids and compared them to the feasibility study as <br />indicated. That memo explained that the Iow bid of $280,000 received from C.W. Houle, Inc. <br />was approximately 27% below the estimate. C.W. Houle, Inc. has satisfactorily completed <br />numerous projects within the City of Elk River, most of which were privately funded developer <br />projects. Therefore, we are prepared to recommend award to C.W. Houle, Inc. as the lowest <br />responsible bidder. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, I will be in attendance at Monday evening's meeting. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
