On-Call Asphalt and Concrete Services
Department:Utilities
Presenter:Tom Wiedmeier
Caption:Approve exercising the first option to renew with Georgia-
Carolina Paving to provide on-call asphalt and concrete repairs
for Bid 16-224.
Background:Georgia Carolina Paving provided this service last year and was
approved by the Commission on 12/20/2016, with an option for
up to three additional one-year period renewals. The service
provided by Georgia-Carolina Paving has been excellent and by
utilizing an on-call contractor, we can limit the amount of time
before a road cut or sidewalk cut is repaired. The timely repairs
to these roadway and sidewalk prevent public hazards and
provide positive impact on our customers.
Analysis:Augusta Utilities would like to exercise the first additional one-
year renewal for 2018. The Augusta Compliance Department
has registered Georgia-Carolina Paving as a local small
business.
Financial Impact:The requested amount for this renewal is $220,000.00 and the
funds are available in account 506043410-5311912.
Alternatives:Deny the request
Recommendation:We recommend approval for the first one-year renewal of the
on-call asphalt and concrete services to be provided by Georgia-
Carolina Paving Company.
