The purpose of this project is to perform road base repairs, asphalt resurfacing, and/or full depth reconstruction as part of the annual infrastructure reinvestment program. This project includes a base bid of N. Illinois, Lakeside Drive, Valmar Block, Bluebonnet Street, Oak Road, Mockingbird Lane, and part of West Drive. The N. Illinois was left over from Package 6 due to funding constraint.
Five sealed bids for the project were received on June 25, 2024 (Bid No. 24-038). Bid analysis was based on City’s A+B bidding method, which factors time plus cost to determine the lowest best value bid. Lucas Construction Company, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible cost bid of $1,863,708 and 150 days to complete project. Although low bidder did not submit the lowest contract time but was still the lowest value bid based on A+B bidding method. The City’s engineering consultant’s Letter of Recommendation and the bid tabulation are attached.
The adopted budget in the FY2024 CIP for this project is $2.35 million.
