ACTION PROPOSED:

Award Bid and Authorize the City Manager to Execute a Contract with SYB Construction Company, Inc., for the Coats Drive Sanitary Sewer Replacement Project in the Amount of $543,665.




BACKGROUND

The existing 8-inch sanitary sewer pipe that runs through the Central Business District along East Coats Drive and across the DART Right-of-Way was built in 1958 and requires replacement to ensure reliable performance - now and for the future.  The proposed sanitary sewer will be a larger, 12-inch pipe to provide improved service today (the old pipe is failing in several locations), and will satisfy future demand should the downtown area redevelop in the future. This project will consist of 1,800 linear feet wastewater to be installed by open cut and replacement of the aerial crossing at Cottonwood Creek to resolve ongoing maintenance issues.

 

On October 29, 2020, six (6) bids were received and five (5) bids were responsive.
