Howard R, Green Oompany <br />August 13, 2003 <br />File: 821660J-0060 <br /> <br />Item4.6. <br /> <br />The Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />City of Elk River <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br /> <br />RE: 2003 SEAL COAT IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />We have tabulated the bids received last Tuesday, August 12th, for the 2003 Seal Coat Improvement <br />project. There were a total of three bids submitted. The following table lists the bidder and their total <br />bid: <br /> <br />Pearson Bros., Inc. <br />Allied Blacktop Co. <br />Caldwell Asphalt Co. <br /> <br />$22,468.85 <br />$24,397.00 <br />$40,664.29 <br /> <br />As in the past, the Street Department will be pre-sweeping the streets and supplying the aggregate to <br />the contractor for the seal coat. The contractor will only have to supply the bituminous matedal and <br />place the aggregate supplied by the City. The City will then sweep the streets after the appropriate <br />length of time. It is obvious from the bid of Caldwell Asphalt Co. that they anticipated providing the <br />aggregate themselves and doing the additional work. They apparently did not read the specification <br />carefully enough. <br /> <br />Pearson Bros., Inc., is the lowest responsible bidder at $22,468.85. They have previously <br />successfully completed seal coating projects in the City of Elk River. Therefore, we would <br />recommend award to them as lowest responsible bidder. Attached is a resolution for the City <br />Council's consideration that would award the contract for the 2003 Seal Coat Improvements to <br />Pearson Bros., Inc. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue, please call. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R.
