<br /> <br />Item # 6.4. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway <br />Elk River, MN 55330 <br />July 26, 2005 <br /> <br />File: 226-003C <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: WWTP HEADWORKS IMPROVEMENTS <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />We have tabulated the bids received on Thursday, June 2, 2005 for the WWTP Headworks <br />Improvements. There were a total of three bidders. The bidders name and total bid are <br />presented in the following table and a bid tabulation is attached. <br /> <br />Bidder <br />Gridor Construction, Inc. <br />D I -Construction, Inc. <br />Madsen-Johnson Co oration <br /> <br />Total Bid Amount <br />$1,776,000.00 <br />$1,832,000.00 <br />$2,127,000.00 <br /> <br />Although this project began as a headworks improvement, it has had two significant additions to <br />the project. Beyond the headworks, it also includes the secondary digester cover replacement <br />and a free-standing chemical building construction anticipating a future need to add <br />phosphorous removal to the treatment process. The engineer's estimate for the total bid <br />package was $2,000,000. Gridor Construction, Inc. has successfully completed major <br />improvements at the City's WWTP in the past. We have, in the past week, received written <br />approval of the plans and the ability to proceed with this project from the Minnesota Pollution <br />Control Agency. Therefore, we would recommend award to Gridor Construction, Inc. as the <br />lowest responsible bidder in the amount of $1,776,000.00. Attached is a resolution for the City <br />Council's consideration which would award the project to Gridor Construction, Inc. <br /> <br />If you have any questions regarding this issue, I will be in attendance at your August 1, 2005 City <br />Council meeting. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />~a-J <br /> <br />Terry J. Maurer, PE <br />City Engineer <br /> <br />Phone: 763.635.1000 <br />Fax: 763.635.1090 <br />S:\EngineerImprovProj\2005 Improvement Projects\ WWTP Heaclworks-Digester\07 25 05 cc memo.doc <br />www.cLelk-river.mn.us <br />
