The city's Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) contains the NW Shakopee Stormwater Structure Improvements (Phase 1) Project, Storm-22-001 as outlined in the attached CIP project summary sheet. Phase 1 improvements include the construction of an underground stormwater quality best management practice (BMP) located at Lot A of the Scott County Government Center. On July 21, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution R2020-089 approving the plans and specifications, and authorizing bidding of the project. Note that the budget was revised from $450,000 to $350,000 because the city did not receive the $100,000 grant from the Metropolitan Council Stormwater Grant program as indicated when the plans and specifications were approved.

In accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 471.347 Uniform Municipal Contracting Law, bids were solicited and opened on August 7, 2020. Eleven bids were received. During tabulation of the bids, it was discovered that S.M. Hentges &Sons, Inc. had a summation error on their bid proposal form. After staff review, it was confirmed that S.M. Hentges & Sons, Inc., from Jordan, Minnesota, is the low bidder in the amount of $243,568.86 (see the attached resolution for the bid tabulation summary). The bid is competitive and is 6.3 percent less than the engineer's construction estimate of $259,978.00.

S.M. Hentges & Sons, Inc., has the capacity and experience for the project and is deemed a responsible bidder. They are prepared to begin work in August with an anticipated substantial completion in November 2020.

Based on the bid award amount, the updated total estimated project cost and funding summary is as follows:

The total project budget of $350,000.00 matches the amended CIP budget and includes a contingency amount that covers any unexpected change orders, quantity adjustments and other miscellaneous expenses encountered as part of the project. This project is funded by the Storm Drainage Fund.
