Approval of the award of bid to Kamminga & Roodvoets, Inc. for the 42nd Avenue North roadway and sidewalk improvement project.
• This contract is for the 42nd Avenue North roadway and sidewalk improvements project.
• Award recommendation is to the lowest responsive responsible bid from Kamminga & Roodvoets, Inc. in the amount of $4,735,766.50; the bid amount was 5% below the engineer’s estimate of $4,984,961.65.
• Due to recent construction cost escalations, capital projects will need to be reevaluated and reprioritized during development of the Fiscal Year 2024 Proposed Capital Improvement Plan to fit within the total funding availability of 10-year term of the Penny for Pinellas sales tax levy. This will likely result in lower-priority projects not being funded.
• Awarding this contract will necessitate a future amendment to the capital budget increasing Penny funding from $723,460.50 to $4,065,460.50. Current Funding sources for this project include: FDOT Local Agency Program Grant: $612,634.00, Infrastructure Sales Tax (Penny for Pinellas): $4,065,460.50, and Pinellas County Utilities: $57,672.00.
• There are no mandatory small business enterprise goals included with this award as this is a federally funded contract that does not allow local preference; however, the contractor is encouraged to utilize SBE subcontractors if possible.
