Item No. 04-316
Date: October 13, 2004
Item/Subject: ORDER -Contract award for construction of a Bus storage Addition to the
Recycling Facility
Responsible Department: BAT, Engineering R Purchasing
Commentary:
The attached Council Order authorizes contract award to 1. M. Brown of Hampden for the
construction of a bus storage addition to the City's Recycling Facility. The original bid of $656,126
was well over the City's available funds of $407,687. By reducing the size of the building by two
bays (56 feet or enough room for four buses) and by re-deagning or substituting many of the
original features of the building, the contractor was able to propose a building that is acceptable
to staff and within budget.
On October 4, 2004 the Finance Committee reviewed and approved the above recommendation
to award the contract to J. M. Brown in the amount of $407,000.
