The timeframe for this was pushed up to be able to accomplish it as soon as possible this summer.

Of this amount $43,123 will be applied to Division A for sealcoating on Sunwood Drive, Alpine Drive, and Waco Street. In addition, $8,850 of this cost will be charged to the Parks Department. The low bidder, ASTECH Corp., has previously performed sealcoat work in the City. Public Works Director Olson stated it should be noted that there was a bidding irregularity affecting the bid opening. The Iow bid provided by ASTECH Corp. was delivered to the City offices by Fed Ex at 9:07 a.m. and has been verified by delivery records. However, the bid was not discovered in time to be opened at the specified time of 11:00 a.m. Since this bid complied with the stated bid instructions and was submitted prior to the specified opening time, staff feels it appropriate to award to ASTECH Corp. as the lowest responsible bidder.
