RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Contract with Zastrow Enterprises, Inc. for the Animal Shelter Kennel Renovation Project in the Amount of $439,249.00.
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The intent of this project is to renovate the dog kennel and grooming area at the animal shelter. Deterioration over the past three years of the floor drains in the kennel area necessitates replacement. While replacing the drains, all new flooring and CMU kennel partitions will be installed. An alternate for manufactured kennel partitions was included with this bid but it was found that the cost savings from these panels did not outweigh the longevity that would be brought from implementing CMU walls. There was also an alternate #2 for an accessory storage building that was voted down at the April 2nd council meeting. The contractor for this project will now change since this alternate is no longer included. The new contractor for the base bid option will be Zastrow Enterprises, Inc. by virtue of the local bidder preference.
