Presentation by Staff The Council received a bid tabulation indicating that three bids were received. The bids were received from Bituminous Roadways, Inc., C.$. McCrossan Construction, Inc. and Alexander Construction Company. The City Manager reviewed all the details of the specifications and the bids re- ceived. The City Engineer observed that the bids received were considerably lower than the engineering estimates. He noted that the price of asphalt was down from last year and that combining the alley work with street projects brought the costs down considerably. He also noted that all bidders predicated their bids on using jpecialized crews. This means that the length of the individual projects will be tretChed out over the duration of the work. Mayor Nawrocki inquired if the concrete alley repair was included in this bid. He was advised that it is not as it may have not been advantageous to so do. This work will go out for bid early in June. The bid will be awarded at a special meeting · of the Council on June 16th at 6:15. The City Manager told the Council that the residents who will be assessed for these projects will be advised by letter of the approximate work schedule for each pro- ject. 4.
