LEAD STAFF:
David D. Ohl
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve resolution to award a construction contract bid to Belsaas & Smith Construction
BRIEFING SUMMARY:
- For the upcoming Wetland Mitigation construction project, Bowers Field working
with Century West held an open bid session.
- On April 26, Bowers Field held an open bid session for the Wetland Construction
project. 4 companies submitted bids to which Belsaas & Smith Construction
submitted the lowest bid.
- The bid was recommended by Century West and was concurred with by the FAA.
BACKGROUND:
On April 26th, Bowers Field working with Century West accepted 4 bids for the
upcoming Wetland Mitigation Construction Project. After reviewing the 4 bids it was
determined that Belsaas & Smith Construction submitted the lowest bid. A resolution to
enter a contract with Belsaas & Smith is no required.
DISCUSSION:
I recommend approving the resolution to award Belsaas & Smith Construction a contract
to complete the Wetland Mitigation Construction project at the airport.
Belsaas & Smith along with 3 other companies submitted bids on April 26 th to which
Belsaas & Smith submitted the lowest bid. Once all bids were received, they were
forwarded to Century West, to which they reviewed and confirmed that Belsaas & Smith
provided the lowest bid. Century West then recommended awarding the construction
contract to Belsaas & Smith. Once the recommendation was received, it was forwarded to
the FAA, to which they provided a concurrence letter that Belsaas & Smith did in fact
provide the lowest bid.
Now that the company has been recommended and concurred with, a resolution is needed
from the BoCC to award the contract to Belsaas & Smith construction. The resolution
will allow for the awarding of the contract and to allow the airport director to sign
contract documents upon agreement of terms and conditions.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
There are no immediate fiscal impacts to awarding of the contract to Belsaas & Smith.
Fiscal impacts will be part of the grant match funds already confirmed for Bowers Field
and its 2023 projects.
