Body
BACKGROUND:
As part of the 2013 bond election, funds were approved to replace the restroom/concession building next to the baseball fields at Thomas Park. Staff proposed to council that the remaining funds be used to improve other areas of the baseball complex as the facility had received low grades during a report card project conducted by the Parks and Recreation Department. Council approved the use of the funds to make improvements to shade, seating, sidewalks, fencing the parking lot and other amenities necessary for the baseball complex. LanArc Design, Inc. was contracted to complete architectural and design services for the renovation of Thomas Baseball Complex.
Bids were advertised and received in which three vendors responded.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The construction services on Bid #16-019 will be purchased from budgeted funds for the cost centers and amounts as listed below:
COST CENTER LINE ITEM BUDGET AMOUNT
Capital Account Thomas Athletic Complex $ 464,749.00
STAFF RECOMMENDATION/ACTION DESIRED:
Staff recommends that the best value bid meeting all specifications be awarded to Northstar Construction for an amount not to exceed $464,749.00. Included in this amount is a $20,000 contingency and the alternate for a brick veneer backstop. The contingency amount will only be spent if necessary.
