"Creating Community Through People, Parks, and Programs"
Date: 3/12/08
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Barry Bernstein, Parks and Recreation Director
Subject: Hastings Mississippi River Overlook
From the last time I presented this subject to you, I believe I also showed you proposed
plans for this overlook. Our consultant Hoisington Koelger Limited received quotes from
several contracting companies. The information regarding costs for this project ranged
anywhere from $11,000 to $60,000 over the consultants estimate ($47,000). The lowest
bidder price range was $57,703.11. I felt this price was too high and exceeded our grant
contribution.
I discussed this issue with the consultant and the NRRC and we would like to propose the
following adjustments:
• Remove the derrick (savings of $6,000) (need to have an alternate for interpretive sign
$1,200)
• Adjust the entry to the platform by removing gangway and replacing with cement
runway (cement runway approx. $1000)
• No spotting scope (savings of $3500)
• No drift log seating (alternative is a donated bench seat)
With the elimination of these features, the price of the redevelopment of the project was
reduced to $42,300.57. This price does not include the architect/engineer fee of 12,000
and a contingency of $5,000 for a total price of possibly $59,300.57
I am seeking City Councils authorization to enter into an agreement with Blackstone
Construction Company who was the lowest bidder on this project.
Thank youf
