This project is funded through MaineDOT's Municipal Partnership Initiative (MPI) Program where MaineDOT provides 50% of the funding and the City provides the balance. Typically staff would complete the design and put the project out to be competitively bid. Due to the size of the project, it would limit the number of likely respondents. Currently Northeast Paving is working on our Union Street paving project which is also an MPI project with MaineDOT. Northeast Paving approached the City with a proposal to complete the Broadway project at the same pricing level as the Union Street project, which was competitively bid. When comparing the Union Street project pricing to those prices received on the City's Main Street paving project, which opened on April 22nd, it appears the City has an opportunity to realize savings under the proposal from Northeast Paving (Surface paving rates - Union Street Bid $105/ton, Main Street bid $116/ton). Therefore, staff recommendation is to execute a contract with Northeast Paving.
