CITY COMMISSION MEETING
STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Eilluent Outfall Pier Repairs, Bid No. 9900-15
SUBMITTED BY: Robert S. Kosoy, P.E.
DATE:
June 6, 2000
BACKGROUND: The pier which supports the Beaches' combined effluent outfall Line needs
scheduled repairs due to the corrosive nature of the saltwater environment. Repair plans were
developed by Nadeem Zebouni, P.E., who recommended the work be completed in two phases.
The base bid for the project consisted of the first phase repairs of replacing all the large "U" shaped
hardware on the pier. We bid the second phase repairs as Additive Alternate 1.
Invitations were sent to four bidders, and one bid was received on May 31, 2000. We received
several calls from bidders who were initially interested, but determined the size of the project was
too small.
The sole bidder was T.W. Blount, Jr. & Son Contracting Co. as follows:
Base Bid: $43,146.40
Additive Alternate No. 1: $44,220.00
BUDGET: Repairs to the effluent outfall Line are shared by the Cities of Atlantic Beach, Neptune
Beach and Jacksonville Beach. A total of $15,000 was budgeted for the Atlantic Beach portion of
the work under the Sewer Utility Account No. 410-4401-535-3400. The Atlantic Beach share of
the base bid for this project would amount to $14,380.90. The standard procedure for contract
payment is for Atlantic Beach to compensate the contractor, then receive reimbursement from the
other two cities.
RECOMMENDATION: Award the contract for the Base Bid only for Effluent Outfall Pier
Repairs, Bid No. 9900-15, to T.W. Blount, Jr. & Son Contracting Co. in the amount of $43,147,
and authorize the City Manager to sign the construction contract.
