<br />RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING
<br />Staff recommends that the Base Bid, plus Alternate No. 1, totaling $720,553.46, be awarded to William Glover, Inc.
<br />as the lowest, most responsive and responsible bidder meeting specifications as set forth in the Invitation to Bid.
<br />Although the lowest bid is substantially higher than the consultant's estimate, we believe that it is the lowest price
<br />that we are likely to receive in the current bidding market. In addition to a very busy construction industry,
<br />Hurricanes Floyd and Irene have generated even more projects for the local community of marine contractors. This
<br />has caused prices to rise faster than we could have anticipated when the estimate was prepared over a year ago.
<br />Staff fiirther recommends that Change Order No. 1 be accepted, for a net credit of $28,284.27. These credits have
<br />been offered by William Glover, Inc., for cost saving changes to the design of the building's foundation and framing
<br />design. William Glover, Inc., will provide signed & sealed design drawings for submission to the Building
<br />Department for permitting of the new design. The revised contract amount would be $692,269.19.
<br />This project is supported by several grants from State and local agencies which would require amendments, and
<br />perhaps reduced funding support, if we remove any of the major elements of the project scope. The MOT Highway
<br />Beautification Grant has provided $150,000, the FIND Waterways Assistance Program has provided $120,000, and
<br />the SJRWMD Indian River Lagoon Program has provided $100,000. Funding for the County's share is
<br />recommended as follows: 315-210-572-068.09 (1 Cent Sales Tax) $170,000.00
<br />117-210-572-068.09 (Tree Fine Funds) $ 20,000.00
<br />133-210-572-068.09 (Florida Boating Improvement Prog) $ 80,000.00
<br />109-214-541-066.31 (Road Funds) $ 52,269.19
<br />In addition, staff requests authorization for the Chairman to sign the contract and change order documents after they
<br />have been executed by the Contractor with all the required insurance and recorded bonds and upon review and
<br />approval as to form by the County Attorney. A sample Agreement, and Change Order No.I are attached for review.

<br />Vice Chairman Ginn inquired why stemwall construction was being used for the
<br />project and not pilings, and Public Works Director James W. Davis explained that it was to
<br />keep the cost down; he assured her that it would provide a solid foundation and is
<br />appropriate for this area.
<br />Director Davis responded to Chairman Adams' request for a clarification on the costs
<br />and funding.
