RE: Bid Award- City Center Parking Structure Repairs
BACKGROUND
The City maintains the City Center Parking Ramp Structure which is attached to the Best
Western Premier Waterfront Hotel. In 2011 the City engaged engineering firm Carl
Walker Inc. to provide a 10 year Repair and Protection Analysis of the City Center
Parking Structure. This analysis identified various component replacements, structural
repairs, grouting, sealer installation and other maintenance issues. In the 2011 CIP the
Council allocated approximately $94,500 to begin to address the ramp repairs and the
first phase of repairs was completed in October, 2011.
In 2013 the Common Council allocated $78,900 in the 2013 CIP and $32,000 in the
Convention Center Operating Budget for a total of $110,900 to address the remaining
identified short term ramp repairs. Given their familiarity with the structure, Carl Walker
Inc. was again engaged to assess the performance of the 2011 repairs, update the 10 year
repair and protection analysis and prepare bid specifications for the remaining repairs
which included slab repairs, piping replacement and new grout and expansion joint
installation.
ANALYSIS
Working in conjunction with Transportation and Purchasing staff, Carl Walker Inc.
prepared bid specifications seeking contractors for this project. Bids were advertised in
the local paper and posted online on NovusVendor. Bids were received on September 12,
2013. The bid tab is attached. Carl Walker Inc. reviewed the bids and believes the low
bidder (NORCON Corporation) has the appropriate contractor qualifications and
construction experience to perform this work. In addition, Carl Walker Inc. believes
NORCON Corporation's alternate bids for the window sealant replacement and the
spandrel panel grout pocket repair are competitive and should also be considered at this
time. City staff concurs with Carl Walker Inc.'s recommendations for the base bid and
tot
alternate bids and confirmed NORCON Corporation's bid met all other minimum bid
specifications.
FISCAL IMPACT
The net fiscal impact of NORCON Corporation's base bid ($58,955) and both alternates
($7,050) comes to $66,005. Of the $110,900 allocated towards this project ($78,900 in
the CIP and $32,000 in the Convention Center Operating Budget) the Council authorized
$24,319 to Oshkosh Inventors LLC for reimbursements of various parking structure
repairs during their hotel renovation project this past February. This amount, coupled
with Carl Walker Inc's A/E fees of$14,700 leaves approximately $71,800 available for
the remaining repairs. Funding for this award would be charged to the Parking Ramp
Fund A/N#: 506-1040-6426-00000 and the balance to the Convention Center Operating
Budget Capital A/N#: 503-1040-7216-06314.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this bid to NORCON Corporation's
base bid and both alternates for a total of$66,005.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:
Jon Urben, General Services Manager Mark Rohloff, City Manager
