Jenn and Ken – we received the comments below from a prospective bidder. My initial responses are in red. If you concur with my responses then we can issue an addendum to clarify.
Ken – I would like to include a new completion date for NW Natural in the addendum as well. Can you confirm when they will be able to complete their relocations?
Thanks!
1. Please confirm the Substantial Completion Date of Nov 30th, 2016 in the
Agreement. The proposal Section calls for 80 Days on Page 14.
Completion date is Nov 30th, 2016. We will plan to update the Bid Proposal section to list the Nov 30th, 2016 by an addendum.
2. Clarify Article (5) of the Agreement. I do not think the retentions are listed
properly. There are typos regarding the progress payments at 100%??
It appears that all of these should be 95% (i.e. 5% retainage). Jenn, can you confirm that the City typically holds 5% retainage? If so, we will update this section by an addendum.
3. Prevailing Wage Section calls for July 2015 Rates? Project advertised on 1/6/16.
Normally the January 2016 advertised date would call for January 2016 rates. Please clarify
the rates to be used.
It appears that the July 2015 reference is a holdover from when we anticipated bidding in 2015. We will plan to update this reference to January 2016 by an addendum.
