3. Award Bid - Lawrence Park Bridge/Trail - Parks DeptCity of Kalispell
Post Office Box 1997 - Kalispell, Montana 59903-1997 - Telephone (406)758-7700 Fax(406)758-7758
REPORT TO: Mayor Bill Boharski and Kalispell City Council
FROM: Michael Baker, Director of Parks & Recreation
SUBJECT: Lawrence Park TR-KAL/Bridge
MEETING DATE: October 1, 2001
BACK GROUND: The bid opening for the Lawrence Park Bridge project was
completed on September 26, 2001, at 2:30 p.m. in City Hall.
Three responsive bids were received for this trail project that
includes installation of benches, garbage receptacles and at the
north end of the trail a bridge will be constructed to cross the
Stillwater River and join with the existing connector trail to
Whitefish Stage. The bridge will span a total of 160' with an
additional 1000' of asphalt trail that parallels the Stillwater River
and ajoins to our existing Phase I Lawrence Park trail.
This project has been in the works since 1996. We have moved
the bridge location twice and experienced a years delay due to high
water and redesign. The completion of the bridge will allow
pedestrian/non-motorized travel from the corner of Reserve and
Whitefish Stage to Main and Idaho to our downtown district.
Initially six construction companies received bid packages. We
received 3 responsive bidders. They are as follows:
A-1 Paving $322,136.85
LHC, Inc., $343,408.24
Sandon Construction $385,321.36
The 2001 budgeted amount for this project is $217,379.00. After
comparing the specific bidding schedules from the three
responsive bidders, it is the recommendation of the consultants that
the bid price is applicable. Upon preliminary conversation with
MDOT, and an explanation of the bid tabulation forms, they are in
agreement that the bids are consistent and in line with the project.
The budget account for Istea has a total amount of $402,968.00,
which includes $185,589.00 for the Meridian Trail project.
Although the Meridian Trail project has been ready to bid since
August, we chose to bid the Lawrence Park Bridge project first in
case we needed to draw additional funding from the Meridian Trail
project. The Lawrence Park Bridge project has always been the
higher priority of the existing projects.
RECOMMENDATION: It is my recommendation to accept the low bid by A-1 Paving in
the amount of $322,136.85 for the construction of the Lawrence
Park Bridge and Trail. I am also recommending to authorize
transfer of funding in the amount of $116,496.00 from the
Meridian Trail project to the Lawrence Park Bridge project.
The remaining funds would allow us to bid the Meridian Trail
project in two phases starting early this winter 2002. Phase II
would be scheduled with the allocation of federal funding 2003.
FISCAL EFFECTS: This project is funded 86.58% with Federal money and 13.42%
local match. Our local match is $43,230.77 and the federal share
is $278.906.00.
ALTERNATIVES: None at this time.
Respectfully submitted,
Michael aker, Director of Parks

After consulting with Carver Engineering, our bridge consultant, we recommend
that Al Paving be awarded the above mentioned project for their low bid amount
of $322,136.85.
The following points were considered in making this recommendation:
1. The prices submitted by the three bidders were tight, competitive numbers.
2. Everything except Mobili9ation and the Bridge Abutment came in within
an acceptable range of the estimate. Elements of the Bridge Abutment
design were made mandatory through MDOT's bridge department's
standards and reviews. Therefore, the price of the abutments affected the
bottom line significantly. As per your discussion with Andy Hyde of
Carver Engineering, you were aware that the abutment price could vary
from $50,000 to S100,000_ There is no way to scale back the bridge design
and still meet MDOT's requirements. We anticipated that. bridge items, 18
through 24, would include bridge mobilization. The mobilization item in
the estimate was anticipated to cover the trail only.
Thank you for your attention, we look forward to being involved in the
construction administration of the project and seeing the two trail elements
already in place connected and completed.
Please call if you have any questions.
