As Recommended <br />? As Amended <br />? Ordinance on 151 Reading <br />? Ordinance on 2"d Reading <br />? Implementing Resolution <br />? Set Public Hearing For <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Amend the demolition contract with J & G Industries, Inc by $400,000 for a total contract amount <br />of $550,000, in order to provide for the demolition of 1631 North Bristol Street, which is part of <br />the Bristol and Seventeenth Street widening project. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On October 18, 2010, the City Council authorized the Public Works Agency to release a <br />Request for Proposals (RFP) to qualified firms to provide right-of-way-related services for the <br />City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP). <br />The RFP for the above services was sent to 12 firms who specialized in this field. After review <br />and evaluation of the 12 proposals by personnel from the Public Works Agency, Community <br />Development Agency, and the City Attorney's Office, J& G Industries Inc. was recommended. <br />On April 4, 2011, the City Council awarded a contract to J & G Industries, Inc. for demolition <br />services in the amount of $150,000 based on projects identified at that time. As part of the <br />Bristol and Seventeenth intersection widening project, it had been determined that demolition of the <br />building located at 1631 North Bristol Street will be required. <br />The contract for the construction of the intersection project has been awarded and the <br />contractor's work has been placed on hold pending the demolition of the building. The <br />complicated tenant relocation process associated with this commercial building included <br />relocating thirteen businesses. The last tenant vacated the premises on November 11, 2011. <br />This was the first opportunity for the City to inspect the building, conduct surveys, and solicit a <br />complete bid from J&G Industries for the demolition of the building. After conducting a thorough <br />inspection and performing the asbestos and lead survey, J&G submitted a demolition bid of <br />$350,000. <br />23E-1
