Garver recommends awarding the construction contract to Estrada Concrete Company. For the following combined reasons we consider Lambeth Home Builders as not qualified to perform the work required for the Taxiway Romeo project. 1. No experience as a prime contractor on projects larger than $40,000 2. No municipal pavement experience 3. Only municipal experience is a Welcome Sign project for the City of Rhome Here is a summary of Taxiway Romeo improvements: The project consists of approximately 1,100 square yards of asphalt pavement reconstruction at two locations along Taxiway Romeo. These improvements include of removal of asphalt and concrete pavement sections and construction of 10-inch reinforced concrete pavement section. This project will provide new pavement to connect new pavements recently constructed by adjacent airport tenants. This project is funded by a 50%-50% matching grant from the TxDOT Aviation RAMP grant program. Feel free to call me if you have any questions leading up to the Council meeting.

The bid tabulation is attached. The low bidder is Lambeth Home Builders (bid is attached). Their bonding and insurance references checked out. Lambeth’s largest municipal project as a prime contractor was a $40,000 sidewalk for the City of Rhome. The second low bidder is Estrada Concrete Company (bid is attached). Their project references checked out. Estrada Concrete Company has completed several municipal concrete projects above $200,000. I would like to discuss the option of these contractors with Nancy, Clay and Joel. For that discussion, I have develop a project budget and funding outlay for Estrada’s bid. Nancy/Clay/Joel: Please let me know when you can join me on a conference call. Mark: Will the Project Funding amounts of $52,543 for FY 2009-2010 and $97,976 for FY 2010-2011 listed in the As-Bid Project Budget attachment fit into remaining Ramp Grant balance?
