Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract with Battery Warehouse for the 2016 CDBG Sidewalk Project - Greenhill Subdivision.
Body
The 2016 CDBG Sidewalks-Greenhill Subdivision Project is the second phase of sidewalk construction within the Greenhill Subdivision. The first phase of the project installed sidewalks on Aberdeen Drive, Bradmore Drive, Denfield Drive, Barrhall Drive, and Ameswood Drive. The current project will continue with sidewalk installation along the west sides of Cameo Drive, Easton Drive, and Farnswood Drive. Several driveway approaches will be reconstructed as part of the project to ensure that the cross slope across the driveway will meet the requirements of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Driveways with cross slopes that currently comply with ADA do not need to be reconstructed and will remain as they are today.
Funds for the project are provided through Community Development Block Grants administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
A total of ten (10) sealed bids were received and opened on April 2, 2019 for constructing the project. The bids ranged from $120,973.00 to $302,746.10. Battery Warehouse from McAllen, Texas, submitted the lowest bid in the amount of $120,973.00. Three references provided by the contractor were contacted to confirm their qualifications and experience. The Transportation Department recommends awarding the construction contract to Battery
Warehouse in the amount of $120,973.00.
