RE: Swimming Pool Renovation
City Park
Van Buren, Arkansas
Dear Mayor Bell:
Attached please find a copy of the certified bid tabulation
for the above referenced project. In explanation, the alternates
represent work which is not necessarily required by the grant
application, such as exterior repairs, painting, aesthetic graphics,
and so forth. The low bidder, Brashears Construction, Inc. has
agreed to perform all work deducting the alternates, 818,210
total, deducting an additional $3,800.00 if the gutters are deleted,
and an additional $2,390.00 if awarded the contract for a lump sum
contract price (negotiated) of $55,000.00. This is $3,000.00 above
the budget. I feel that this negotiation is in good faith and
recommend your consideration toward accepting this proposal.
One of the items being deleted, Alternate No. 2, involves
the repair of the roof of the entrance canopy. Bill Hathaway has
recommended that this alternate remain in the contract ($700.00)
if possible. The leakage is causing damage to the structure and
if not repaired now, should be budgeted soon.
I will be available to answer questions at your convenience.
