Memorandum
Attached for your review and approval is a resolution to award a contract to Pamar Enterprises, Inc. in the amount of $437,560.50 for the Wayne Street Improvements Project.
Currently Wayne Street from Washtenaw Avenue to Day Street is in need of several improvements. The street pavement is in a poor condition and it should be resurfaced. There is no sanitary sewer main on Wayne Street, and the water main extends along only one block of the street. There is a history of sanitary sewer back-ups at several residential properties and the First Church of Christ Science where the properties are currently served by sanitary sewer leads crossing neighboring properties (cross lot services). Similarly, one of the residential properties on Wayne Street has a cross lot water service.
The proposed construction project will complete the water main loop on Wayne Street from Washtenaw Avenue to Day Street. It will include installation of the missing sanitary sewer mains from Washtenaw Avenue to Lorraine Place, and about 100 feet of sanitary sewer main south of Day Street. The street resurfacing work will include the resurfacing of the street, some curb and gutter replacement and construction of ADA corner ramps.
A Public Meeting was held on January 11, 2012 at Tappan Middle School. At this meeting staff presented the project design and the phasing for the construction. The residents asked general questions, supported the project, and received information about how to contact the staff if needed.
For this construction contract we received eight (8) bids on Tuesday, March 6, 2012. The low bid from Pamar Enterprises, Inc. of $437,560.50 is approximately 34% below the Engineer’s Estimate. The construction of the project is scheduled to begin in May of 2012 and to be completed in July 2012.
