Background/Discussion
Phase I of the 1st Avenue Multi-Use Trail will be constructed in the right-of-way for 1st Avenue from just west of S. 35th Street to just east of S. 25th Street.
The City received two bids on the project. Both bids were over the engineer's opinion of probable cost (OPC). The engineer's OPC for Phase I was $3,497,000. Snyder Associates, our project engineer, recommends accepting the bid from MECO-HENNE Contracting, Inc. The total bid is $3,775,453.37, $278,453.37 (8%) over OPC.
