This memorandum serves to request your approval to purchase on an emergency basis storage rack /
dock hardware and fasteners for Marine Stadium Marina. The total cost of this purchase is $4,926.39.
There is an immediate need to replace the existing storage racks / timbers to ensure the safety and
welfare of the public and the vessels entrusted into the City's care. The existing metal racks and
wooden timbers are more than fifteen years old and have deteriorated to an unsafe condition.
The City Commission approved C.I.P. Project No. 326008 to replace the Dry Storage Racks at Marine
Stadium Marina. Work is slated to begin on or about September 14, 1999, and the project is
scheduled to be completed in three weeks time. The hardware and fasteners requested in this
memorandum are a critical component of the rack construction project. A provision of our contract
with the contractor requires the City provide the hardware and fasteners for the project, and have them
on site when construction begins.
This Department solicited bids for marine hardware and fasteners from two national manufacturers of
these specialty products, who provided the quotes listed below (and attached to this memorandum):
1. Follansbee Dock Systems. $4,926.39
2. Merco Marine $6,511.38
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Follansbee Dock Systems, is a non -local, non -
minority vendor.
Verification of funding for this purchase was obtained from the Budget Department on August 26,
1999 and is attached. Kindly, indicate your approval by signing the attachment.
