Fairview Area <br /> oRC-7802 <br /> Dear Mr'. whitted- <br /> uary 17, 1979, bids were received and opened for construc- <br /> tion of water and sewer- improvements in the northern Fairview Area <br /> County. A tabulation of those bids is attached. <br /> The low bidder is Billings & Garrett, Inc. of Raleigh, for a total bid <br /> (based on estimated quantities) of $544,145.40. This bid is $I09,275.40 <br /> higher than the budgeted amount available able for this project. Under direction <br /> of the Northern Fairview Community Development Task Force, we ve ha deter_ <br /> mined that $111,030 can be eliminated from the contract by deleting <br /> future <br /> proposed water improvements for the time being (pending a possible <br /> grant) . Billings & Garrett has demonstrated proficiency on work of this <br /> type in the past, and so we recommend that Billings & Garrett- be awarded this <br /> contract subject to the following provision: <br /> that the bid items relating to water improvements (items 1, 2► 3, 4, 5,-half of the rock <br /> 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 31, 36, 37, 36, 39, and 40) and that one <br /> excavation item (*30) be deleted from the contr15act 0 <br /> 4 at and prethat sent,orange resulting <br /> 1 . ; <br /> in a total estimated contract amount of $433, <br /> of july, 1979, to add those <br /> County reserves the right through the end <br /> abo ve-mentioned items back into the contract by change order at the <br /> X� price originally bid plus only the escalation in cost of materials involved. <br /> very smoothly, and we <br /> We expect that the construction of this project will go <br /> await the direction of the Board to proceed. <br /> :V. , <br /> yours very truly, <br /> ROSE, PRIDGEN & FREEMON, INC. <br /> BY: <br /> P <br /> R.
