No bids for Visitor Center beam work; estimate more than doubles budget
Summary
City staff told the council that no bids were received for the Visitor Center exterior beam replacement and the new estimate is $110,000 versus the original $50,000 budget, leaving a funding gap to address.
Administrator Steve Pendergrass told the council on Aug. 12 that no bids were received for replacement of exterior beams at the Visitor Center; the current project estimate is $110,000 while the project had been budgeted at $50,000. The shortfall of about $60,000 was noted by Pendergrass as an issue staff will return to with options for next steps.
Councilmembers acknowledged the increased cost during the action-item review but did not vote to authorize additional spending at the meeting. The item was identified as needing future follow-up to determine procurement options or a budget amendment.
