1. Construction Contract Award for Ford Canyon Senior Center
Improvements Project Stan Henderson, Public Works Director
—
Mr. Henderson said the proposed project consists of the following: 1) reconstruction of
the west side parking lot and associated storm drainage (Bid Lot #1); 2) reconstruction
of the handicap ramp into the building (Bid Lot #2); 3) exterior stucco and roof repairs
(Bid Lot #3); and 4) secondary site drainage improvements (Alternative #1). Based on
the bid results, Albuquerque Asphalt is the apparent low bidder. Staff has obtained
three legislative grants for a total current project budget of $307,600.00; however, the
total bid submitted by the contractor is $410,276.54. Mr. Henderson presented the
following funding options for the Mayor and Councilors consideration: 1) full award,
including Bid Lots #1 through #3 and Alternative #1, requires an additional $103,000.00;
2) base bid award, including a project construction contingency and no Alternative #1,
requires an additional $18,000.00; and 3) base bid award, with no project construction
contingency and no Alternative #1, requires an additional $1,100.00. Staff recommends
funding option #3 as previously stated and to award the base bid to Albuquerque Paving
in the amount of $260,724.59 including NMGRT.
Discussion followed concerning the work to be included under Alternative #1, the
funding needed for the project budget shortfalls, the possibility of proceeding with the
work under Alternative #1 under a separate project in the Capital Improvement Plan
(CIP) with another funding source, the dollar amount of the grants received versus the
cost of the work to be done under the project and if there were any future impacts to
areas of the parking lot if Alternative #1 is not done.
