ORDER OF BUSINESS: Reservoir Landscaping Project. Staff reported that bids were opened for Reservoir Landscaping Project which included paving a portion of the roadway from Horizon Drive into the City's 10,000,000 gallon reservcoir, plus site grading, fencing and landscaping on the reservoir property. Two (2) bids were received and the low bidder was Zygotech, Inc., whose bid of $102,850.87 was 25% over the engineer's estimate of $82,140.00. After reviewing the bids, staff noted large discrepancies in the estimated cost of doing some of the street work which staff felt clearly represented a lack of interest or abilit8y by the contractors to perform this type of work this late in the year. Further discrepancies were noted in estimated amounts for street and site excavation. It is recommended to reject the bids at this time and seek a more favorable bid next spring. Mr. Hendler moved to reject the bids for Project No. #90-2-07, Reservoir Landscaping. Seconded by Mr. Snider. Motion carried. Comprehensive Sewer Plan. Mr. Hendler moved to enter into an agreement with the firm of Hickerson-Pence for preparation of a Comprehensive Sewer Plan for the City, and further, to authorize the Mayor to sign the Agreement.
