(AWARD BID FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE SENIOR CITIZENS CENTER)
The Mayor stated that this was the date and time set for
discussion regarding the awarding of the bid for the Senior
Citizens Center. The Mayor recognized Bernie Kavan from
Alpha Engineers who in turn introduced Mr. Ralph Aldrich of
Snake River Builders who was the lowest bidder for the
construction of the Senior Citizens Center.
The Mayor opened the discussion by reporting that it was the
consensus of opinion of the City Engineer, Councilwoman
Williams, and Mr. Kavan that the paving bid should be left
in. It was also recommended by Alpha Engineers that the
windows should remain,double pane, but instead of plate glass
they should be safety glass. This was a building code
requirement and was overlooked. Mr. Aldrich stated that he
did get a figure for this, but he was not completely satisfied
with it. His figure was $1,000 added for the five windows
involved. Mr. Aldrich did want to check this figure out as
he felt he did not have enough time to be satisfied with it.
The Mayor then stated that the big question was concerning the
leaving of the seven grid block gray and sealing it similar to
the color of the new Library. Mr. Aldrich said that this
would be an approximate $2,500 deduction, which he could
guarantee., Mr. Aldrich said that he could get an accurate
figure,inyolving these two situations by Monday.
Discussion followed regarding the construction of the Senior
Citizens Center. Councilman Gamboa felt that.the sooner the
bid was awarded the better as the weather was of great importance
as winter approaches. Mr. Aldrich stated that he could start
staking as soon as the bid was awarded. The several changes
discussed would be incorporated into the Contract.
MOVED by Dakan, SECONDED by McCluskey that the bid be awarded
to the low bidder, Snake River Builders of Nampa, for the
construction of the Senior Citizens Center at their base bid of
$126,500.00 and any changes to be negotiated individually.
