Village awards library roof contract at well under original budget
Summary
After competitive bids came in far below the $600,000 budget, trustees awarded the library roof replacement contract to Facilitech Construction Group for $237,700; staff noted robust vetting and will provide onsite construction supervision.
The board approved a base-bid contract award to Facilitech Construction Group for the Whitefish Bay library roof replacement after staff said five competitive bids produced a much lower cost than originally budgeted.
Staff reported the low bidder had local references, and the project scope includes updated materials and a construction supervision plan to avoid earlier problems that led to premature roof failure. Staff said the base bid of $237,700 will allow the village to proceed and frees up approximately $370,000 of borrowing capacity in the capital plan relative to the prior $600,000 estimate.
The motion to award the contract carried by voice vote; staff will proceed to execute the contract and manage construction oversight.
