A bid opening was held on November 5, 2003, and one bid was Approximately 4 years ago the Parks and Recreation Department upgraded the playground area at English Oaks Common Park. At that time, funds were not available to provide a shade structure which is a very popular amenity in our parks. The pre-engineered/pre-manufactured shade structure will be installed adjacent to the existing playground equipment along with new picnic tables and trash receptacles. Theabove project will be a potential rental facility for our Parks and Recreation Department. The picnic area could potentially bring in between $500 to $1,000 per year. Although the bid proposal from Diede Construction is $9,000 higher than the engineer's estimate, staff feels that Diede Construction has provided the City with a fair price. Staff believes if the project is rebid, the City would not receive bids significantly lower than Diede Constructions bid. Staff would also like to maintain the current construction schedule so that the completion of the project would be completed during the winter and be available for our park users next spring, Bidders Location Base Bi Engineer's Estimate Diede Construction APPROVED Dixon Flynn -- Cfty Manager 11/11/03 tATY OF LODI 2003/2004 Capital Improvement Funds.- Project Estimate; $23,000-00 Bid Opening Date: November 5, 2003 Funding AvailableFinan �irecicr - Prepared By: Steve Virrey.
