Bradford, Village Manager //g5—, DATE: February 28, 1990 SUBJECT: Beach Road Beautification Project; Bid Award The Beach Road Beautification Project is a joint venture between the Village and the Beach Road Association. The Village Council previously approved an allocation of $25,000 for this important work to be matched by the Beach Road Association. Bids for the project were opened on January 15 with the low bidder being Rood Landscape Company in the amount of $61, 687.10: this being approximately 23 percent greater than the total fund allocation of $50,000, yet approximately 21 percent less than the average of the other bids, indicative of a good bid by Rood. However, it was necessary to reduce the cost of the project to be closer to the funds available. We have concluded that the best way to accomplish this is to delete the landscaping and irrigation on the south side of Beach Road from U.S. One to the Lighthouse Park driveway entrance. This portion of the project can be accommodated at a later date. To delete this portion of the job by change-order will reduce the project cost to a total of $55,207. 60, still in excess of our current allocation. In order to provide the necessary funds, the Beach Road Association has agreed to provide an additional $2,700, bringing their total contribution to $27,700. Therefore, the Village needs to provide an additional $3,000 for a total Village allocation of $28,000. This will provide almost $500 for any unanticipated expenses. In order to accomplish the Beach Road Beautification Project, it is recommended that the Village Council take the following steps: o Award the Beach Road Project to Rood Landscape Company in the total amount of $61, 687.10. o Direct and authorize the Village Manager to execute a change- order deleting the aforementioned landscaping and irrigation, bringing the total project cost to $55,207.60. o Authorize usage of undesignated fund balance to provide the additional Village funds and request the same to be included in a Budget Amendment for FY 90.
