You will recall that these styles included for bidding included: (a) a fluted steel column (similar to the City of Champlin), (b) a spheroid (like the City's existing 0.5 million gallon tank), and (c) the composite (similar to the fluted steel tower, but with a masonry column). You will also recall the City was interested in obtaining an alternate bid for an early completed date for the tower so that it could be in use to meet the peak demand period of the summer of 2001. Below are the results of the bidding: Bidder Fluted Column Tank Style Spheroid Composite PDM $1,443,000 ($1,445,000) $1,595,000 ($1,607,000) $1,408,000 ($1,408,000) CBI NO BID $2,056,500 $1,984,500 (NO BID) (NO BID) (NO BID) Landmark NO BID NO BID $1,394,000 (NO BID) (NO BID) ($1,459,000) Caldwell $1,568,100 NO BID NO BID ($1,758,000) (NO BID) (NO BID) Note: ( $ ) alternate bid for early completion - June 18, 2001 The base bid shown is for a completion date of October 15, 2001. The bid for the early completion date is shown in parenthesis. Attached is a CIP sheet showing the overall budget for this project estimated at $1,870,000. The design and construction services from AEC Engineering for the tank are $1~2,800,000 leaving a remaining budget $1,767,200 for construction. Recommendation: It is staff's recommendation that the early construction date be elected for the fluted column steel tank, and awarded to PDM in the amount of $1,445,000. This award amount is $327,200 below the CIP budget for this project. The early completion date is $2,000 additional cost for this 181
