Authority moves forward with bidding for 38th Place stormwater work and County Line culvert
Summary
The authority authorized bids for phases 1–2 of the 38th Place stormwater improvement (engineer estimate about $5.3 million with 15% contingency) and reissued bid documents for the County Line culvert to run concurrently, with a pre-bid on April 30 and award timing in May.
The Hobart City Redevelopment Authority voted to move forward with issuing plans and soliciting bids for phase 1 and 2 of the 38th Place stormwater improvement project and to reissue bid documents for the County Line culvert replacement so the two projects run on similar schedules.
Staff described phase 1 and 2 plans and said the current engineer estimate for those phases is about $5.3 million including a 15% contingency. The DNR permits are in hand and staff proposed a pre-bid conference on April 30, bid openings on May 7, and an award at the authority's May 12 meeting. Board members discussed whether to bundle related smaller projects; they agreed to run 38th Place as its own larger bid while reissuing the County Line culvert documents with a shorter bid window.
The board approved motions to issue the bid documents and reissue the County Line bid; staff will post advertisements and hold the pre-bid conference here on the scheduled date, then return awards for board approval.
Next steps: staff to publish bid notices, hold pre-bid conference and return recommended awards at subsequent meetings.
