<br /> 5 , C-I <br />REPORT <br /> To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> From the Ci Mana er <br />November 22,2004 <br />Subject <br />Award of Contract - Seaport Centre Block Wall and Sewer Pump Stations Improvement <br />Project <br />Recommendation <br />Approve the Contract Documents, and award the contract for the Seaport Centre Block <br />Wall Repair and Sewer Pump Stations Improvement Project, to the lowest responsible <br />bidder, Bamer Construction of Castro Valley, California, for their low base bid of <br />$368,975. <br />Background <br />Both Pump Station #1 on Saginaw Drive and Pump Station #2 on Galveston Drive, <br />service the Seaport Centre area, pumping sewage eventually to the South Bayside <br />System Authority (SBSA) treatment plant. Components from these pump stations are <br />failing from the effects of the differential settlement common in this area of Redwood <br />City. As part of this improvement project, new sump pumps, concrete valve vaults, wet <br />well hatches, wet well lights and blowers, and piping will be installed at both pump <br />stations. The existing submersible pumps at Pump Station #2 are failing, and will be <br />replaced with new pumps. Also, wet wells of both pump stations will be rehabilitated to <br />prevent further corrosion. These additions and upgrades will bring the pump stations <br />up to City standards, and prolong their useful life. <br />Four (4) bids for the above-referenced project were opened in the Office of the City <br />Engineer (public counter - Maps & Records area) Wednesday, November 3, 2004, and <br />are summarized below. <br /> No. Bidder Bid Amount <br /> - <br /> 1.

Based on the bids received, staff believes that the low bid is <br />reasonable and responsive, and recommends awarding the contract to Bamer <br />Construction. <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> _.~'. . ._**»'., <br />
