Title

Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Standard Form of Agreement between Owner and Contractor with Percheron Construction for the Downtown Trash Modification Project.

 

Body

The City of Round Rock Dumpster Enclosures project is designed to improve the overall aesthetic of downtown Round Rock. This project will provide enclosures around three existing dumpster locations in downtown Round Rock. This project will also add a new dumpster enclosure at a recycling dumpster that will be added to the downtown parking lot at Liberty Avenue. The dumpster enclosures will include decretive CMU block walls, side access doors, gates, bollards, and concrete approach pads. The enclosures will be locked to reduce the illegal dumping that has been occurring in downtown.

On January 18, 2019, City Council awarded an engineering contract with 2P Consultants for the design of the dumpster enclosures and associated improvements.

On July 17, 2019, five bids were received for the construction of the identified improvements. The low bid was Percheron Construction with a bid of $126,645. Utility staff recommends Percheron Construction for approval.

The City will also be changing the process of how we bill the tenants in these locations in the near future. Currently, each tenant contracts individually for trash service. The new program will bill the tenants for trash service that will be included with their current utility bill.

 

Cost: $126,645
