Board awards underground oil-storage removal contract to Hemlock Construction
Summary
The board awarded Hemlock Construction the contract to remove underground oil storage at Memorial property; the bid includes Connecticut prevailing wages and a performance bond and is conditioned on a code-based agreement.
The Danbury City Board of Awards voted to award a contract to Hemlock Construction to remove underground oil-storage tanks at Memorial property.
Staff said the public children’s department submitted a proposal from Hemlock. The bid includes state of Connecticut prevailing wages and a payment/performance bond. The convener described the total proposed cost as roughly $142,000, and staff discussed equipment rental and trade labor in the estimate.
A board member moved to award the work to Hemlock based on their contract availability and equipment rental qualifications; the motion was seconded. Volker stated the award would be conditioned on an agreement under a cited city code provision (recorded as C32324BNDDot1340Dash7000DotO847 in the transcript). The motion was approved and the board recorded the award as carried.
Staff noted there is some reserve in the purchase order if crews encounter additional costs during execution.
