Agenda, item by item
Item V.1 · Contract
Demolition services contract, Arts and Culture District site
Approved · 5-0
The council removed the item from consent for discussion, then authorized the city manager to sign a contract with MKP Enterprises, not to exceed $218,600. Staff said three bids were received and MKP was lowest. Soil removal is not included, the surface would be secured if excavation is delayed, and the contractor committed to recycling 50 percent of removed material. Council Member Steve Joyce asked that RFP responses be included in future reports. Peter Tomai said the contract was premature before a public hearing; Rich Ford asked for no more spending until direction is clear.
