Michigan Street <br />Improvements (120-062) project. I have attached a Certified Bid Tabulation form of the project to this letter. <br /> <br />Based on our review of the submitted quote the following are our comments: <br /> <br />1. Both Walsh and Kelly and Premium Concrete Inc., only quoted eight (8) tree watering bags instead of <br />nine (9), as amended in Addendum No. 1. Therefore, one (1) tree watering bag was added to the base <br />bid quote for both Walsh and Kelly, Inc., and Premium Concrete Inc. <br /> <br />Based on the above information, it is our engineering opinion that Walsh and Kelly, Inc., submitted the <br />lowest responsive Bid. <br /> <br />Therefore, it is our engineering recommendation that the City of South Bend should approve the bid <br />of and award Project 3400 Block S. Michigan Street Improvements (120-062) to Walsh and Kelly, <br />Inc., for the base bid contract amount of $222,079.50. It is our recommendation that no alternates be <br />selected. <br /> <br />Thank you very much for your time and consideration. Should you have any questions or concerns please <br />contact me at (574) 232-4388 or by email at acunningham@jpr1source.com. <br /> <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />Andrew Cunningham <br />Landscape Architect, PLA <br /> <br />enclosures <br /> <br />H:\2020 Projects\2020-0027\Eng\2020-0330 S Michigan <br />Improvements\Specifications <br />
