Explanation:
The 2007 Water System Master Plan identified the need to replace aging infrastructure throughout the City of Hollywood and to install additional infrastructure to improve the level of service within the City's water system.
The City-wide Water Main Replacement Program identified the need to replace old water distribution infrastructure and install 8-inch diameter and 4-inch diameter water mains within the area surrounded by Sheridan Street and Pershing Street and North 22nd Avenue and North 24th Avenue.
On September 18, 2013, via Resolution R-2013-266, the City Commission approved a proposal from Brown and Caldwell, Inc., in the amount of $289,992.00, to provide engineering design services, permitting services, bidding recommendation services, and limited engineering services during construction for the Water Main Replacement Program within the area surrounded by Sheridan Street and Pershing Street and North 22nd Avenue and North 24th Avenue.
On February 17, 2015, the Department of Public Utilities staff advertised the project soliciting for qualified construction services, and on March 20, 2015, nine (9) bid proposals were received at the Office of the City Clerk and were publicly opened at the City of Hollywood Southern Regional Wastewater Plant with the following results:
