MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Shawn Napier, P.E., City Engineer
DATE: August 15, 2006
SUBJECT: Wastewater System Improvements (Pine Mill Road & NE Loop 286)
Bids were received and opened August 10t\ 2006 at 3:00 P.M. for the Wastewater
System Improvements (Pine Mill Road & NE Loop 286) Project. Two general contractors picked
up plans from the Engineering Department. One bid was received and opened.
The low bid was from B. Bray Construction in the amount of$98,289. S & S Boring was
gong to bid through Stephens & Sons Concrete. S & S Boring did not know why Stephens &
Sons Concrete did not turn in their bid.
This project started because of a Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) project
to build an Overpass over Pine Mill Road. L & N out of Oklahoma was low bidder for the
TXDOT contract this month. TXDOT plans on having a preconstruction conference at the end of
September. Once we award our project and have a contract, it will take about two weeks to get
all the materials except the manholes which will take about six weeks. This will put us starting
the project around October 2nd. B. Bray Construction has estimated that it will take about two to
three weeks to finish the job and be out ofTXDOT's way.
I recommend that B. Bray Construction be awarded the bid for a total contract amount of
$98,289.
