Hoover awards Riverchase Pumping Station No. 6 improvements contract to Rev Construction, up to $334,410
Summary
Council voted to accept Rev Construction Inc. as the lowest responsible bidder for the Riverchase Pumping Station No. 6 improvement project with a contract amount not to exceed $334,410; council discussion noted site complexity and a wide spread between low and second bids.
The Hoover City Council on Oct. 27 authorized the mayor to execute an agreement with Rev Construction Inc. for improvements at Riverchase Pumping Station No. 6 in an amount not to exceed $334,410, awarding the project to the lowest responsible bidder.
Public works staff explained the work would include relocating an existing manhole that currently sits on the Cahaba River, installing approximately 40 feet of linear pipe, cleaning out a storm easement and replacing a cart path on the adjacent golf course. During discussion council members noted a large spread between the low bidder and the next bids; staff said the site-specific sanitary and storm conditions likely influenced the higher offers from other bidders, and that Rev Construction was a known, responsible contractor familiar with similar work.
A motion to approve resolution 8632‑25 passed by voice vote. No member recorded a roll‑call tally in the public transcript.
The resolution was described as part of funds previously authorized by the council from a $6.1 million allocation for related projects.
