Recommendation
Motion to approve Resolution No. 45-24 to award an Agreement to Ranger Construction Industries, Inc. for Construction Services for the Catherine Drive Roadway Improvements Project (Public Works Project No. 20-001), pursuant to ITBC 2023-049 in the amount of $604,686.30.
Body
Background:
On November 17, 2020, the City Commission of the City of Delray Beach (City) approved Resolution No. 167-20 for an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) with Palm Beach County (County) and the City for the design and construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of W. Linton Boulevard and Catherine Drive/Linton Lakes Drive. At the City's request, the County is installing a traffic signal at the intersection of W. Linton Boulevard and Catherine Drive/Linton Lakes Drive to improve safety at the intersection. The County requested that the Catherine Drive approach be improved to include an outbound (southbound) left-turn lane and a wider inbound (northbound) receiving Lane.
On July 19, 2023, the City issued Invitation to Bid Construction (ITBC) 2023-049 to acquire a firm to provide construction services related to the Catherine Drive Roadway Improvements project (Project No. 20-001).
On September 20, 2023, the City received one (1) submittal pursuant to ITBC No. 2023-049. The original bid submitted by Ranger Construction Industries, Inc. (Ranger) was deemed responsive and responsible to the bid requirements, however the price ($1,258,587.80) was well over the allotted budget for this project ($650,000). Public Works negotiated with the sole bidder on this solicitation by modifying the project scope for a reduced price of $604,686.30 while not comprising the intersection work required by an Interlocal Agreement with Palm Beach County for their traffic signal installation. The remaining work from the original scope (milling and paving of the rest of Catherine Drive loop road) will be added to a future project or be completed with the Pavement Management Program.
