Rejection of bids on sanitary sewer between 1-105 and Centennial Boulevard in Fairway Loop area was recommended because bids submitted were higher than anticipated and ! it was felt a better design of the facility would result in better bids. Test holes indicate shallower lines and use of another pump station would result in lower bids. Roger Hannum, 2060 Centennial Boulevard; Ed Pape', 20 Coburg Road; and Benny Bartel, :2170 Centennial Boulevard protested the project because of the estimated high cost I ,based on the bids submitted. :In answer to questions from the Council, Assistant Public Works Director said the sewer construction cost this year has been about l5~ per square foot for average Idesign and soil conditions compared to 30~ on bids submitted for this project. And that the cost of the pump station would be assessed to the benefitted area under i another project, allowing this area to be served before the East Bank Trunk is constructed. Mr. Mohr moved seconded by Mrs. Beal to award contract to the low oidder . on paving Norwood Street, and reject bids on the Centennial~ Boulevard sewer. r--r--- - -.......... . - -....---,-----. -. - -~ .- Rollcall vote. ~Motion carpied, all counciffimenlpresent voting aye. d\l 7/24/72 - 3
