at the beginning of the project.
.Item 1.9 of the Standard S ecifications for Public Works Construction,
published by the North Centra Texas Council of Governments an uti ize by
.the City of Fort Worth, states, "Proposals shall be considered irregular if
they show... unbalanced values... or other irregularities of any kind. The
owner may reject any proposal containing any such irregularity "
Harold C. Mullen, North Texas Area Manager of the Associated General
Contractors, states in a letter dated August 11, 1988, "It is apparent from a
review of the bids that the bid of the apparent low bidder, Harrod Paving, is
unbalanced relating to the project signage item. The extent of the imbalance
is dramatic and, under the bid documents, render the bid invalid. When, as
here, glaring bid deviations are present in the apparent low bidder's bid, it
is our opinion that the bid should be rejected and award made to the next low
bidder."
In view of the above, and difficulties which the City has experienced with
this contractor on prior projects, it is recommended that the contract be
awarded to the second low bidder, Centerline Constructors, Inc.
The recommended low bidder has complied with the City of Fort Worth's MBE/WBE
Policy
ENGINEER'S ESTIMATE OF COST
Based on standard City policy and the low bid prices, the following
assessment rates have been established
ENGINEER'S ESTIMATE OF COST
6-inch thick reinforced concrete pavement $ 35.60/front foot
7-inch high attached concrete curb $ 2 75/front foot
6-inch thick concrete driveway approaches $ 2.41/square foot
4-inch thick concrete sidewalk $ 1.42/square foot
The assessment rates results in the following division of cost
