Approve a $126,06.00 fund transfer from the Cable T.V. Center to the Library Cable Studio Center in the Special Trust Fund, and 2. Adopt the attached appropriations ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Special Trust Fund by $126,706.00 from increased revenues, and 3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Haws and Tingle for the construction of Phase III, Facade and Interior Improvements, Central Library Expansion and Cable T.V. Studio, for the low bid amount of $2,254,750 (including Alternates 2 and 3), with a construction period of 180 calendar days, and 4. Reject the bid received from Haws and Tingle for Alternate 1. DISCUSSION: Phase III, Central Library Expansion and Cable T.V. Studio, including perimeter facade and interior work, was advertised on April 1, and April 8, 1993. All bidders were required to be prequalified by the City in order for their bids to be accepted. Four firms submitted information and complied with the prequalification requirement. Only two vendors submitted bids. On May 6, 1993, the following bids were received: Bidder Base Bid Alt. 1 Alt. 2 Alt. 3 Haws and Tingle $2,221,000 $15,600 $ 8,250 $ 25,500 The Frymire Co. $2,225,000 <$ 4,000> $32,700 $114,800 Of E~CIA~. RECORD The construction period was specified to be 180 calendar days. ~~~ SEC~tETARI~ Alternate 1 provided for substitution of Exterior Insulation Finish ye~~~~Sr Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GRC) as panels above windows on 1 ~ 1'. Alternates 2 and 3 provided for removal of insulation, fill, pav Mace appurtenances from the future retail and expansion areas respectively. F The Construction Manager's estimate was $2,461,000 for the Base Bid. The Construction Manager has reviewed the proposals and has recommended that the contract be awarded to the low bidder, Haws and Tingle, to include the Base Bid and Alternates 2 and 3 for a total bid amount of $2,254,750. -~i Printed on recycled paper City of Fart Worth, Texas Mayor and Council Commmunication DATE 06/08/93 REFERENCE NUMBER C-13866 LO NAME 20LIBRA PA E 2 of 2 SUBJECT AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO HAWS AND TINGLE FOR CENTRAL LIBRARY EXPANSION AND CABLE TY STUDIO PHASE III Staff included Alternate 1 in the bid documents for the specific purpose of providing a cost reduction to the base bid in the event that the base bid exceeded expectations. The low bidder, Haws and Tingle, did not provide a credit, but rather an additional cost to the base bid. The GRC in the Base Bid is more durable than the EIFS Alternate ~ and is preferable. Thus, there is no advantage to the City in accepting Alternate 1 , and staff recommends its rejection. Alternates 2 and 3 were included in the bid documents to determine the cost of removing the material overlying the existing basement roof in the proposed retail and library expansion areas in preparation for the finish out of the areas. The Architect has estimated the additional utility costs resulting from reduction in insulation from removal of the material to be between $2,000 and $4,000 per year. The cost to remove th e material under Phase III will be significantly less than the cost under a later contract. Therefore, staff recommends that City Council accept Alternates 2 and 3. Naves and Tingle has complied with the City's OBE policy. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that upon completion of Recommendations 1 and 2 the funds required for this contract will be available in the capital budget, as appropriated, of the Library Improvements Fund, and the Special Trust ,Fund.
