Council recommends award of lagoon expansion contract to Double S Dirt Works, pending USDA review
Summary
Bids for the Linn Valley lagoon expansion came in below the engineer's estimate; the council recommended awarding the construction contract to Double S Dirt Works for $3,295,235, contingent on USDA concurrence.
BG presented results of the Lagoon Expansion bid opening: six bidders produced bids below the engineer—s probable cost estimate of about $4.9 million. The low bid from Double S Dirt Works was $3,295,235. BG recommended awarding the construction contract to Double S Dirt Works subject to USDA review and concurrence.
Council discussed bidder qualifications and whether the lowest bidder represented the best value; staff noted the project engineer—s recommendation and a letter from the project manager attesting to the low bidder—s track record. A motion to award the contract contingent on USDA concurrence was moved, seconded and approved by the council.
