FILE: 8-3219-A Resolution authorizing the City Manager to award a contract for SOUTH DISTRICT POLICE SUB -STATION - BUILDINGS DEMOLITION It Is respectfully.recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution ratifying the actions of the City Manager in accepting the bid of MCO Construction, Inc. and executing a contract in a proposed amount of $52,800 for the base bid for South District Police Sub -Station - Buildings Demolition, with monies therefor allocated from the C.I.P. Ordinance 10187, Project No. 312008 In the amount of $52,800 to cover the contract costs. The Department of Public Works evaluated the bids received September 17, 1987 for the South District Police Sub -Station - Bulidings Demolition, with the intention of asking the Commission to award a contract to the lowest acceptable bidder at the October 8th Commission Meeting. Because of rescheduling of the October 8th Commission Meeting, the Commisslon would be unable to consider the project until the new scheduled date of October 22nd. The Departments of Public Works and Development believed that delaying the starting of the work covered by the contract until that time would likely result in an Increased hazard to the public as well as an Increased liability to the City. Accordingly, the City Manager proceeded with the acceptance of the lowest acceptable bid and the execution of a contract with the firm. The lowest acceptable bidder was MCO Construction, Inc. They are a black/hispanic joint venture whose bid of $52,800 for the base bid Is under the City's estimate of the cost of 'the work. The Directors of the Departments of Public Works and Development recommended the award of the contract to them. Funds for the project are available from the C.I.P. Ordinance No. 10187, as amended, Project No. 312008. Attachments: Proposed Resolution Q6-f Q1,10.111101 j CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIOA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO. F i 1 e OATS: FILE: SUSPECT: South District Police Substation Buildings Demol i ti on FROM REFERENCES: Cesar H. 0 d i o ENCLOSURES: City Manager The seven buildings that are to be demolished in order to clear the site for the proposed South District Police Substation need to be secured. Vandals have already broken into three of these buildings and started a fire in one and that building has now been boarded up. However, the other buildings have not been secured. The buildings are vacant and have become nuisances and are harboring vagrants and undesirable activities. They present a hazardous situation to the surrounding community as well as a high risk of increased fire and police response. All the doors and windows need to be secured in order to insure the safety of the public, as the City might be liable for any harm done to persons using these buildings. The cost for having these buildings secured is approximately $10,000. This money could be saved by immediately awarding a contract for the demolition of these buildings and clearing the site of debris. a 877937-
