CC Regular Session 5. 3. Meeting Date: 03/26/2024 By: Mark Riverblood, Engineering/Public Works Information Title: Approve Refurbishment of the 25-year-old Okapi Street Boardwalk Connection Purpose/Background: The purpose of this case is to authorize the refurbishment of the 132' foot boardwalk west of 16400 Okapi Street. The quarter-century old boardwalk is tattered and in poor condition and proposed to be 'over-decked' in the same manner as was done for the Lake Itasca Boardwalk a few years ago, and with the same funding source. Timeframe: Observations/Alternatives: The attached RFQ was sent to several known boardwalk contractors,with two quotes received by the February 20th due date. Peterson Companies provided a quote of$59,500, and MN Boardwalks LLC a quote of$25,872. MN Boardwalks completed the Lake Itasca Boardwalk project and their work is sound, and considered a reliable contractor. They indicate the work can be completed by mid-Summer of 2024. Funding Source: The funding source would be the Capital Maintenance Fund, (formerly known as `Park Maintenance Fund#810') which has a present balance of$588k(after 2024 budgeted encumbrances). Recommendation: At the March 19th,2024 regular Public Works Committee meeting, the Committee recommended(3/0)that Council approve the refurbishment of the 25-year-old boardwalk with the work to be performed by MN Boardwalks LLC, in the amount of$25,872. Action: Motion to approve the refurbishment of the Okapi Street Boardwalk at a not-to-exceed amount of$25,872.
