I ::xHISIT --L .. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATINS SUBJECT: SANTA CLARA SANITARY SEWER PROJECT 1996 BASINS S, X, and U; FORMATION OF THE LOCAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT FOR JOBS 2928, 3013, AND 3398 BACKGROUND The City of Eugene has identified the 1996 Santa Clara Sanitary Sewer project as a project necessary to address an important health and welfare issue within the metropolitan area. The project conforms to the Metropolitan Area General Plan requirements and stipulations of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) grant conditions which include service delivery targets. The 1996 project represents the seventh year of a seven-year program to service the River Road- Santa Clara area. On November 20, 1989, the City Council amended the Eugene Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) by modifying the timing for service delivery to the River Road/Santa Clara Area. Following that amendment, the City Council authorized the City Engineer to proceed with the phased prepara- tion of plans and specifications for the improvement and to call for bids each year of the program. On March 5, 1996, the seventh consecutive year's construction projects were advertised in the legal section of The Register-Guard and in the Daily Journal of Commerce. To comply with the EPA grant connection schedule condition, to maximize competitive bidding and administrative efficiency, and to minimize as much as possible the disruption to the neighborhoods, the River Road and Santa Clara areas were divided into a number of construction basins. Each year since 1990, sewers have been installed in several basins. In 1996, sewers are scheduled to be installed in three basins in Santa Clara. Basin 96S(Job 2928) generally includes properties between River Road and Beaver Street and Division Avenue and Salty Way. Basin 96U (Job 3013) is described as generally properties between Federal Lane and Blackfoot Avenue and River Road and Marvin Drive. Basin 96X (Job 3398) is described as the properties between Irving Road on the South and Cinnamon A venue on the north and Stark Street on the east and Northwest Expressway on the west. Several bidders submitted bids for the 1996 construction. Four (4) bidders submitted bids for Basin 96S on April 23, 1996. The low bid was submitted by Eugene Sand & Gravel Inc. for $1,558,315.00. Five (5) bidders submitted bids for Basin 96U on April 24,1996 The low bid was submitted by Dan D Allsup Contractor for $1,173,996.00. Three (3) bidders submitted bids for Basin 96X on April 25, 1996 The low bid was submitted by Eugene Sand & Gravel Inc. for $289,489.00. The total of all three (3) bids is $3,021,800.00, which is approximately nine percent below the Engineer's estimate for the 1996 work.
