Brubaker submitted a draft copy of the RFP to the Committee and
stated that after reviewing the previous RFP and removing any
ambiguities, he did add a new section of "Qualification" which asks
for names and resumes of principle officers, partners and names of
individuals who would actually be conducting the program. Brubaker
said that the most important addition was related to whether a
company has been involved in a litigation within the last five
years.
Brubaker asked for approval to proceed with advertising of the RFP
on February 11th. He said it could be brought back to Committee
for their recommendation at the February 15th Public Works meeting.
He said the present extension ends at the end of March.
Bennett stated that he had complete confidence in that everything
that had been previously discussed, relative to the new RFP, has
been included. Brubaker said if the Committee would like to make
any additions or changes, they could do so prior to advertising.
Committee unanimously agreed to the publication of the RFP on
February 11th.
Kent Springs Transmission Main Phase II - Accept as Complete
Wickstrom said the original amount of thio, project was
$1,799,993.56 and the final construction cost was $1,910,635. He
explained that this was primarily related to some unanticipated
work and downtime associated in securing some easements. Wickstrom
said this was a good project, although Charlie Kiefer has called
and said his yard is still not fixed and wanted to make sure that
this was known to the Committee. Wickstrom said that Kiefer has
filed a claim against the City and since that claim is filed by his
attorney, we couldn't fix it even if we wanted to. Brubaker said
there is a statute that says before a suit is filed with the City
a claim form must be filed on the City's approved claim form. He
said Kiefer did that; then he hired an attorney and filed another
claim. Brubaker said we have done everything we can. Wickstrom
said the Corps has concurred with the City and if we go in there
now and try to change the wetland, we would be in violation with
our permit with the Corps.
Committee unanimously recommended that the project be accepted as
complete.
Lindental Meadows - Bill of Sale
Committee unanimously recommended the bill of sale be accepted and
the bond released after the one year maintenance period.
R.V. Rest Stop on Naden Avenue
Bennett said he spoke with Wickstrom on this item and Wickstrom had
advised that we needed to establish a budget, verify the validity
of the budget, and come up with a design. Bennett said that Jack
Ball gave him a design based on 8 stalls. Wickstrom said he wanted
to downsize it because there is about 10,000 sq. ft. of paved
surface. He said when it goes over 5,000 sq. ft. there are water
quality and detention requirements which will add substantially to
the cost. Wickstrom said that we are looking at cutting it down to
5 stalls. Bennett stated that there is an R.V. jamboree coming up
in September but if it gets cost prohibitive, there is enough paved
area in the City to accommodate the R. V. Is rather than spending
$25,000 for 5 stalls. Bennett asked that a new drawing and a
detailed budget be brought back to the next Public Works meeting.
Meeting adjourned at 5:55 P.M.
