Resolution accepting the work of Carley Construction, LLC as complete and authorizing release of retainage after 30 days if no claims are filed in connection with the South 1st Street Neighborhood Rehab, Phase IX. Project #PW19-12

The South 1st Street neighborhood bounded by Pierce Street on the north, Palmer Avenue on the south, 1st Street on the west and Franklin Avenue on the east consists of some of the original town subdivision within the city.

Records indicate that the infrastructure in this area dates back prior to the 1950’s and is in need of replacement.  Storm sewers are lacking or undersized, sanitary sewers are leaking and broken and the pavements are in poor condition.  Improvement projects will be phased over several years to replace and upgrade the aged infrastructure.

Phases I thru VII are complete and included portions of Knepper Street, Damon Street, Hill Street, Stutsman Street, Langstrom Street, Franklin Avenue, Platner Street, Carson Avenue, Grace Street, Kappell Avenue, Charles Street, Garden Street, Bloomer Street, Clinton Street, Voorhis Street, Stahl Avenue and Grace Street. The Phase VIII project included portions of Stutsman Avenue, Voorhis Street and Platner Street. 

Phase IX included Iowa Avenue, Palmer Avenue, and Grove Street.

This project was included in the FY19 CIP with a budget of $1,000,000 in Sales Tax Funds.

The Contractor did not complete the project on time and received one non-compliance notice. Liquidated damages in the amount of $51,000 were assessed.

Approval of this resolution.
