Councilmember Elvig suggested an alternate be included in the bidding <br />process fora fall start versus a spring start on construction. <br /> <br />Case #4: <br /> <br />Authorize Contract for Metal Roofing for Construction of New Ramsey <br />'Municipal Center <br /> <br />Assistant City Administrator Nelson reviewed that based upon the bids received for division <br />RM-3072 Metal Roofing, the Council made the decision to re-bid this division further, clarifying <br />the scope of work and contractor qualifications. This process 'has been completed, the bid <br />.opening was held at Ramsey City Hall on Thursday, September 8th at 2:30 p.m.; three bids were <br />received. The low bid was from M.G. McGrath in the base amount of $383,508 with a bid <br />alternate amount of $43,088 for the zinc alloy roofing materials. The total for this division <br />would be $426,596. The budget established for this bid division at the time of the bond sale was <br />$446,776, which would allow the $20,180 in the budget to be transferred to the Construction <br />Contingency. <br /> <br />Cheryl Badinger of 3D/I advised a change order in the amount of $5,250 will be required for the <br />RM-1071 Fully Adhered EPDM Roofing and Sheet Metal contract that was awarded to S.G.O. <br />Roofing and Construction in May if the Council chooses to select the zinc alloy material. The <br />change order would be due to the change to zinc alloy sheet metal flashing from the base bid of <br />anodized metal. <br /> <br />Councilmember Elvig inquired what the bids came in at.~during the last bidding process. <br /> <br />Ms. Badinger replied there was a big spread. The low bid was approximately $290,000 and the <br />high bid by M.G. McGrath was approximately $446,000. It would have been necessary to throw <br />out the two low bids because they did not acknowledge the addendum. The specifications were <br />made clearer, which is why there has been $20,000 in savings, and M.C. McGrath has an <br />opening in their schedule, which also resulted in a lower bid. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Pearson, seconded by Councilmember Olson, to authorize Resolution <br />No. 05-09-306, Authorizing Metal Roofing Contract for New Ramsey Municipal Center to M.G. <br />McGrath Company in the amount of $426,596. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Pearson, Olson, Cook, Elvig, <br />Jeffrey, and Strommen. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />P54 <br /> <br />City Council / September 13, 2005 <br /> Page 10 of 33 <br /> <br /> <br />
