Analysis
A design contract was awarded to Halff Associates for engineering plans in the amount of $17,500 for design of a repair to the existing retaining wall along the shoreline adjacent to Lynn Creek marina, leaving an available balance for construction of $52,500.  The remaining appropriation leaves a shortage in the amount of $32,939 to fund construction and contingency.
 
A total of 6 bids were received at the Purchasing Department office for bid #15002.  Bids ranged from a low of $81,370 to a high bid of $154,465.  The bid format was low bid.  The apparent low bid came from Ken-Do Construction.   
 
The proposed project was presented to and approved by the Finance and Government Committee on February 3, 2015.
