BACKGROUND:
Background
The project known as the Alexander Avenue 4B Intake Project (4B Lakeshore) has been determined to be un-constructable. As the City works with the other project partners including but not limited to the SJRWMD, FDEP and the West Volusia Water Supply Committee for full & complete project closeout, it was determined that the upland site (landscaping) restoration was the prudent step in the project closeout.
The landscaping plan is intended to restore as best as possible the natural state of vegetation prior to project cleaning & construction activities. The plant materials chosen closely replicate what was originally there, except in size. The project also includes removal of electrical panels/transformers, roadway repair/restoration as well as refurbishment of the shell boat parking lot. This restoration effort will compliment what was undertaken, inhouse, on the shoreline of Lake Monroe a few months ago.
The City solicited bids with notification being broadcast to 885 companies and there were 20 plan holders and 3 watchers with only 1 bid received. The City did not require a mandator pre-bid meeting & site inspection but received only 1 bid. That bid from AG Pifer Construction Company, Inc. is within industry standards and prior work efforts with this firm have been completed to the satisfaction of the City of Deltona.
