RE: BOSTON STREET, RAILROAD DRIVE, GUARDIAN ANGELS
IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Council Members:
Last Wednesday, we opened bids for the Boston Street, Railroad Drive, Guardian
Angels, Holt/193rd, and School Street west of Proctor Avenue improvement projects. We
received 10 bids. The Iow bid was submitted by Redstone Construction Company, Inc.,
in the amount of $373,231.40. Once the City holds the assessment hearings for some of
these projects, we will be prepared to recommend award of the contract to Redstone
Construction Company, Inc.
As you are aware, three of these projects: Boston Street, Railroad Drive, and Guardian
Angels are proposed to be assessed to the benefiting property owners. Attached for the
City Council's consideration are three resolutions, one for each project, which determine
the cost to be assessed and orders the preparation of the assessment roll. According to
the project schedule, the assessment hearing will be held on July 6, 1998.
If you have any questions regarding this information, I will be in attendance at your June
15, 1998 City Council meeting.
Sincerely,
Howard R. Green Company
e~rer, P.E.
