Council accepts low bid for Cedarbrook Drive drainage improvements; Hamilton County grant covers cost
Summary
Loveland authorized a contract with DJX Construction after a competitive bid opening for a Cedarbrook Drive drainage project; the work is fully funded by a Hamilton County grant and DJX was the low bidder at $30,092.50.
The Loveland City Council adopted Resolution 78 to authorize the city manager to enter into a contract with DJX Construction for the Cedarbrook Drive drainage improvement project.
City Engineer Kelsey Richards (presenting) said the project addresses a longstanding drainage issue that staff found had been on the city's correspondence records for about 10 years. The city received a Hamilton County grant to fund the entire project; staff opened bids on July 21 and received three responses.
Bids received: DJX Construction, $30,092.50 (low bidder); Alpha Demolition, $41,430.00; Loveland Excavate and Paving, $42,605.00. Richards recommended awarding the contract to DJX as the lowest responsive bidder.
Councilmember Hart asked how long the drainage problem had been known; Richards said a review of past emails suggested roughly 10 years of awareness. Council approved the resolution by roll call vote, 6-0.
The resolution directs the city manager to execute the contract with DJX; staff said there is no fiscal impact to the city as the work is fully covered by the Hamilton County grant.
