REPLACEMENT OF BOAT LAUNCHING FACILITIES - <br />MAIN STREET IN SEBASTIAN - SINGLE SOURCE CONTRACTOR <br />APPROVAL - TEDDER BOAT RAMP SYSTEM <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of August 30, 1999: <br />TO: James Chandler <br />County Administrator <br />THROUGH: James W. Davis, P.E. <br />Public Works Director <br />Terry B. Thompson, P. <br />Capital Projects Manage <br />FROM: James E. "Chip" Boyette <br />Project Engineer Engineering 9L.rcian <br />SUBJECT: Single Source Vendor <br />Replacement of Boat Launching Facilities at <br />Main Street in Sebastian <br />DATE: August 30, 1999 <br />The Capital Projects Division of Public Works is asking for Board approval for a single source <br />vendor/contractor to replace boat launching facilities at Main Street in Sebastian. The existing <br />facilities have broken concrete, the ramp is too short, and in general disrepair. <br />The Tedder Boat Ramp System is a unique system that requires no dewatering, lowering the cost of <br />the project. The launching facility is in place in 7 - 10 work days, being less of an inconvenience to <br />the public. This product has a national copyright and trademark issued by the U. S. Patent Office. <br />Randall G. Tedder Construction, Inc. has been used as a single source vendor by Department of <br />Environmental Protection and Indian River County. <br />This project is a cooperative effort with the City of Sebastian, it's estimated total cost is $74,900.00. <br />The County has a grant from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (F.D.E.P.) Special <br />Waterway Projects in the amount of $80,000.00. To date $45,755.00 has been spent on Donald <br />MacDonald Park. The grant has been amended to include the Main Street location rather than return <br />the unexpended balance to the F.D.E.P.. Capital Projects intends to do the approach slab portion of <br />the project, costing $30,000.00. By the County contributing to this project the grant funds stay <br />within the County. <br />Staff recommends that the Board approve the Single Source Contractor. The grant requires no <br />matching funds. <br />Proposal for Boat Launching Facilities <br />Purchase Order from F.D.E.P. to Randall G.
