YID <br />Indian River County, Florida <br />Department of Utility Services <br />Board Memorandum <br />Date: March 31, 2020 <br />To: Jason E. Brown, County Administrator <br />From: Vincent Burke, PE, Director of Utility Services <br />Prepared By: Art Pfeffer, Project Manager <br />Subject: Request to Waive the Bid Process for North Berm Maintenance Project at the Spoonbill <br />Marsh Facility <br />Descriptions and Conditions: <br />The northern property boundary of the Spoonbill Marsh Facility (SMF) is an older drainage ditch. The <br />southern embankment of this ditch is a berm, a.k.a. the North Berm. The easternmost 1,000 feet of the <br />North Berm has degraded over time and requires remediation to insure Tong -term water containment for <br />the SMF. Spoil material (fill) excavated in 2009 during construction of SMF was stored for future use on <br />the adjoining parcel. This stored spoil material will be excavated and used for this project. All embankment <br />activity will occur on SMF property. On February 26, 2020, the Indian River County Department of Utility <br />Services (IRCDUS) solicited quotes from three local contractors with proficiency in excavation and <br />embankment construction. <br />Analysis: <br />We are now entering the dry season, which is the most opportune time to perform this type of <br />maintenance. In preparation, vegetation has been removed along the project right-of-way, and <br />geotechnical tests have been performed. Masteller, Moler and Taylor Surveying has marked the property <br />line and is prepared to stake the project. Plans and specifications were prepared by IRCDUS. All three <br />contractors submitted price proposals. <br />Contractor <br />Proposal Amount <br />Cathco, Inc. <br />$ 65,087.00 <br />Timothy Rose Contracting . <br />$ 95,603.00 <br />Sheltra and Sons Contracting, LLC <br />$109,410.00. <br />167 <br />
