Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:

Approval of the 2019-2020 Capital Improvement Budget, including allocation of $175,000 for the Treasurer Tax Collector Remodel Project.  This project was prioritized to support the collections and processing functions of this office with improved security.

 

Summary of Request

The remodel project bid for the Treasurer-Tax Collector was issued on June 7th 2019.  Four contractors attended the mandatory pre bid conference and qualified to bid on the project; one bid was received at the July 11, 2019 deadline. The cost of this sole bid was $297,000, which is $122,000 over the budgeted amount for the project. In addition to the low bid received, one bidder arrived late, and another was not available to submit a bid due to a conflict, limiting the competitiveness of the bid.  Based on this information, staff believe that rejecting the bid received and re-bidding the project is a prudent recommendation, which will likely result in additional bids being received.

 

Alternative Action/Motion:

Award a contract to the low bidder and identify additional funding to complete this priority project; provide direction to staff.
