<br />
<br />Molnar asked for an update at a future agenda review session to determine if the applications were
<br />sufficient.
<br />
<br />AWARD BID AND APPROVE CONTRACT – POTAWATOMI PARK IMPROVEMENTS –
<br />POOL HOUSE DEMOLITION – PROJECT NO. 124-023A (PR-00038793)
<br />Leslie Biek, Engineering, advised the Board that on February 25, 2025, bids were received and
<br />opened for the above referenced project. After reviewing those bids, Ms. Biek recommended that
<br />the Board award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Green Demolition
<br />Contractors, Inc., in the amount of $210,900, Base Bid Plus Alternate. Therefore, VP Molnar made
<br />a motion that the recommendation be accepted, and the bid be awarded, and the contract approved
<br />as outlined above. Mr. Miller seconded the motion, which carried by roll call.
<br />
<br />AWARD QUOTATION AND APPROVE CONTRACT – 2025 TREE REMOVAL – PROJECT
<br />NO. 125-018 (PR-00039390)
<br />Gemma Station, Engineering, advised the Board that on March 25, 2025, quotations were received
<br />and opened for the above referenced project. After reviewing those quotations, Ms. Staton
<br />recommended that the Board award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible quoter,
<br />Gallegos Tree Service, in the amount of $16,752. Attorney Schmidt noted that Gallegos Tree
<br />Service was the lowest quote but when they submitted the Affidavit, it was signed but not
<br />notarized. It was determined that there was no record to suggest that their lack of notarization
<br />impacted the dollar amount or gave them a competitive advantage over any other quoters. He also
<br />noted that we now have a notarized affidavit for them in the file. Therefore, VP Molnar made a
<br />motion that the recommendation be accepted, and the quotation be awarded, and the contract
<br />approved as outlined above. Mr. Miller seconded the motion, which carried by roll call.
