Resolution to Award Contract for Argo Dam and Geddes Dam Coating and Miscellaneous Repairs to Gerace Construction Company ($295,530.00)
Memorandum
This memorandum and resolution requests approval to award a contract to Gerace Construction Company for the Argo Dam and Geddes Dam Coating and Miscellaneous Repairs Project. This project involves repair and repainting of gear housings, lift equipment, tainter gate structural steel, miscellaneous concrete repair, and minor site improvements. Site improvements include addition of rip rap and construction of a path at Argo dam to allow boaters to portage around the dam. This project does not include the structural steel repairs to the tainter gates at Geddes Dam that were included as part of the Bid Alternate for an additional $105,000. This Alternate was rejected. This work is important to extend the life and preserve the safety of these dams and to prevent more costly repairs which would result if the deterioration of the coatings is not abated.
The City received the following four bids:
Gerace Construction $ 295,530.00
Anlaan Corporation $ 354,050.00

Gerace Construction Company submitted the lowest responsible bid in the amount of $295,530.00. It is therefore recommended that the bid from Gerace Construction Company, Inc. for $295,530 be accepted, and that Gerace Construction Company be awarded the contract for the Argo Dam and Geddes Dam Coating and Miscellaneous Repairs Project.
The overall budget for the project is estimated at $370,530.00 which includes the contract for Gerace Construction, project management and inspection services by City Staff ($10,000.00), contingency for the contract with Gerace Construction for change orders to be approved by the City Administrator ($30,000.00), and engineering services provided by Stantec ($35,000.00).
