TO: Thomas G. Bradford, Village Manager
FROM: Joann Manganiello, Admin. Asst./Village Clerk�_
DATE: July 6, 1994
SUBJECT: Constitutioa Park Project: Rejection of Bid�
As you know, bids for the Constitution Park Project were opened on
Tuesday, May 31, 1994, at 2:00 p.m. in the Village Council
Chambers. Five (5) contractors submitted bids. Per the terms of
the Bid Document, the Village has 60 days after receiving the bids
in which to advise as to the successful bidder. It is necessary,
therefore, for the ,Village Council to consider the Award of
Contract and/or Rejection of Bids for the Constitution Park Project
at the July 14, 1994, Village Council Meeting.
Unfortunately, at this time, the status and future proceedings of ��
the Constitution Park Project are entirely dependent on the outcome
of the pending litigation - RE: Donald H. French, et al vs Jupiter-
Tequesta Junior Citizens, Inc., and Village of Tequesta. The
hearing on the Village's Motion for Summary has been set for July
28, 1994, with the possibility of an earlier docket date should one
become available.
In light of the pending litigation and the uncertainity of it's
outcome, as well as the time constraints, it is my recommendation
that the Village Council reject all bids for the Constitution Park
Project and return the bid bonds to the five (5) bidding
contractors immediately thereafter. Once the suit is resolved, the
Village can consider rebidding the Constitution Par.k Project if the
Summary Judgment is rendered in the Village's favor.
Please place the Constitution Park Project: Rejection of Bids item
on the ,7uly 14, 1994, Village Council Agenda for consideration by
the Village Council. Thank you.
