| | | | | | | | | SUBJECT: Resolution Accepting the Bid Price of G&H Marine, Inc. for Lake Services Dock System |
|
| | | | | | | | | SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the resolution awarding a contract in the amount of $122,000 to G&H Marine, Inc., to provide and install a 68 foot by 32 foot fully roofed boat dock with four boat slips and lifts for the use of the City of Decatur and its governmental partners. |
|
| | | | | | | | | BACKGROUND: The current Lake Services dock is at least 16 years old, with four boat hoists that have reached the end of their reliable service life and does not have a roof to adequately protect the City’s new and existing patrol boats and work boats from the elements. The proposed dock will be constructed to match the aesthetics and the high-quality materials of the commercial boat docks recently constructed in Basin 2, Pier 36 Harbor. It will have four fast response boat lifts to provide quicker response times for lake emergencies. A drawing of the new dock is attached.
Bids were received by the Purchasing Division on March 22. The bid results are provided on the attached bid tabulation. Although another dock supplier showed interest, G&H Marine, Inc. was the only bidder. Public Works reviewed the bid and has confirmed this is a market-competitive bid.
DISPOSAL OF REPLACED UNITS: The current dock system will be sold or auctioned, and the old hoists will be scrapped after the new system is put into service.
LEGAL REVIEW: There are no documents for Legal to review. |
