Title
Discuss and consider authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with QA Construction Services Inc. in the amount of $1,595,000.00 for the construction of the Wilbarger Creek Park project.
Summary
The City received seven bids for this project. The attached bid tabulation identifies QA Construction Services Inc. as the apparent low bidder.
The Wilbarger Creek Park Project includes development of a portion of the 105-acre undeveloped parkland, generally located along Wilbarger Creek between Great Basin Avenue, Craters of the Moon Blvd, Kingston Lacy Blvd and North Cascades Avenue within the Highland Park subdivision.
This project has been identified as a regional park due to its linear shape and size. While originally comprising of two areas of development identified as the “North Park” and the “Dog Park” areas, at this time the current funding available for construction only supports development of the “North Park” area. The proposed park will cater to a diverse range of user groups, create pods of compatible recreational amenities for all age groups, and take advantage of the rich natural resources on site. Located at the corner of Kingston Lacy Blvd and Craters of the Moon Blvd, this phase of construction includes, but is not limited to, the construction of a parking lot, restroom facility, playground elements, outdoor classroom space, practice field, youth veloway, site furnishings, and related park amenities as described in the plans and project manual.
Project funding was approved as part of the November 2014 General Obligation Bond, with supplemental l funding from the Parkland Dedication Fund will be utilized as well.
