RE: Radial Partition Wall Bid
CPH Job No. 6136.05
Dear Mr. Rozansky:
On Friday, January 24, 1986, we received two (2) bids for the
repair of the radial partition wall at the wastewater treatment
plant facility for the City of Winter Springs. Those present at
the bid opening included the author, Mayor Torcaso, and City
Clerk Mary Norton. Also present was a representative from
C.E.M. Enterprises and W.E.D. Contractors, Inc. We received
copies of the bid for our evaluation and comment from the City
of Winter Springs. We found the bids to be in order and no
mathematical errors within the bids. Also, both contractors
have supplied an adequate bid bond with their submittals. The
apparent low bidder was C.E.M. Enterprises in the amount of
$39,257.00. The other bidder was W.E.D. Contractors, Inc. with
a bid of $63,800.00.
The City, at their option, may delete items 6 and 7 of the
contract bid which leaves a low bid of $32,047.00 by C.E.M.
Enterprises, and the second bid of $52,300.00 by W.E.D.
Contractors.
We cannot recommend approval of either bid at this time, as the
bids exceeded the budgeted dollar value within the water and
sewer budget for the repair of this wall. In 1985, we received
a preliminary quote from a contractor from the City of Tampa,
who elected not to bid on this contract. His proposal at that
time totalled approximately $14,000.00. Therefore, the budget
value for the current fiscal year was placed at $18,000.00 and
we felt comfortable that that would cover the necessary
construction expenses. We believe that both the contractors who
bid on this project were unfamiliar witn this type of repair or
the circumstances that exist at the Winter Springs wastewater
treatment plant, and therefore, they bid higher to cover any
unforeseen contingencies. We need to meet with Doug Taylor of
the Utility Dept. and you to discuss possible alternatives to a
full repair, or the possibility of delaying the project until
such time as we can budget additional funds for this repair.
