Subject: Paving Homewood Blvd. - Agenda item
In accordance with cum previous conversation, I have
received a verbal quotation f~om Ha~drives Construction
Co. for g~ading and pavin~ t~xat portion of Homewood Blvd.
between the existing pavement and Lowson Blvd. in t}~e
~ount of '99,800. This is an extremely low amount (amounting
to approximately $1.60 per square yard) due to t~xe fact
t~at ~arch-ives as prime contractor for the Atlantic Avenue
widening Job has his equipment working in that vicinity.
The usual coat of opening, grading and paving is from
~.45 to ~*2.65 per square yamd. In t~ia case the city
~as already done some work at =.~ls location and no
additional stablizing material would be required by the
contractor, although considerable grading is yet to ~e
done. A verbal quotation from another contractor, w~ was
requested to bid on t~i~ type of work, was appz~ximately
~12,000 for this Job. T~xls is an assessment Job and if
Council approves Harcbrives bid, a regular contract will
be executed before proceeding with the woz-k.
