PI <br />DIRECTOR OF UTI SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: WATER EXPANSION PLAN - PHASE III <br />CONTRACT 2 <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. UW -91 -15 -DS <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY BID NO. 3121 <br />We are in receipt of your September 7 memorandum, in which you <br />forwarded copies of bids received for the subject project. <br />Upon reviewing the bids, it was learned that mathematical errors <br />were contained in the Tim Rose Contracting, Inc., bid and when <br />corrected resulted in that firm's becoming the low bidder by $372.52 <br />under the Driveways, Inc., bid (now the second low bidder). <br />Tim Rose Contracting, Inc., is currently under contract with the <br />Utilities Department for installation of a water distribution system <br />in Shady Oaks Subdivision (Indian River County Project No. <br />UW -92 -19 -DS), although this information was omitted from the bid <br />proposal. The Shady Oaks project was scheduled for completion by <br />July 19, 1993 and is still not 100$ complete. This unexcused delay <br />is a matter of concern in that it forbids the County from obtaining <br />revenue from customers desiring hookup, it is discouraging to the <br />homeowners who are anxiously awaiting County water, is detrimental <br />to our image, and does not enhance our public relations. <br />It is, therefore, recommended that the second low bidder, Driveways, <br />Inc., of Titusville, Florida, be awarded the subject contract in the <br />amount of $294,911.09 in lieu of Tim Rose Contracting, Inc., at a <br />bid price of $294,537.57. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Tippin, the Board unanimously awarded <br />Bid #3121 to Driveways, Inc., for Contract #2 in the <br />Water Expansion Plan Phase III, as recommended by <br />staff. <br />CONTRACT NO. 2 <br />IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />K.
