RE: Rescind Resolution 18-549 Awarding Bid to Northern Metal&Roofing Inc./Roof
Replacement/Wastewater Treatment Plan ($2,774.80)
BACKGROUND
At their November 14, 2018 meeting the Common Council approved resolution 18-549 to award the
WWTP Headworks and Digester Building Roof Replacement bid to Northern Metal&Roofing.
ANALYSIS
After the bid award the roofing contractor determined they would need to remove the two large
HVAC rooftop units to complete the roofing to meet manufacture's specifications. These units provide
circulation for areas of the wastewater treatment plant that are exposed to dangerous gas
accumulations. As the need to maintain circulation was not included in the contract documentation
and the cost to remove and reset the units would have exceeded 15% of the contract dollar amount the
decision was made to cancel the contract,revise the specifications and then re-bid the project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Cancellation of the contract will result in a fiscal impact of$2,774.80 in costs to the contractor for labor,
restocking fees and performance bond. This project was assigned to A/N#: 05511946 1731 XXXXX and
03221910 7206 05814.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council rescind resolution 18-549.
