SUBJECT: Bid Award
Interurban Ave Bridge Widening (Project No. 89 -RW13)
Interurban Trail Bridge (Project No. 92 -PK04)
ISSUE
Award the bid to C.A. Carey Corporation for the Interurban Ave Bridge Widening and the
Interurban Trail Bridge projects in the amount of $1,993,618.70.
BACKGROUND
These projects were initially advertised for construction bids in February 2002 and bids were
opened in March 2002. All bids received at that time exceeded the Engineer's Estimate and the
budget. An analysis of the low bid, the bid tabulation, and the budget resulted in rejection of all
bids. In order to re -bid the project, an effort was made to reduce project costs by eliminating
insulation on the water line, revising the traffic signal interconnect specifications, and clarification
of quantities related to trail paving.
The Interurban Bridge Widening project and the Interurban Trail Bridge project were tied
together for bidding purposes due to their close proximity to one another and similar schedules.
The projects were re- advertised for bids on February 6, 2003, and eight (8) bids were opened on
March 7, 2003. C.A. Carey Corporation submitted the lowest bid of $1,993,618.70 ($53,647.80
less than the engineer's estimate).
ANALYSIS
An analysis of the bids was performed and minor errors were corrected. The bidding order did
not change as a result of these corrections. The bid analysis did not identify any irregularities in
the lowest bid or any other bid that could be considered cause for rejection. A review of C.A.
Carey's bid and a background check indicated that C.A. Carey submitted a responsive bid and has
performed satisfactorily on similar work for other agencies.

PUBLIC WORKS
Per our Scope of Services for the above referenced project, we have assembled the
bid tabs and reviewed C.A. Carey's bid.
Bid Tabs
Bids were tabulated and reviewed for all 8 bidders (see enclosed spreadsheet). C.A.
Carey's bid contained only one error (Bid Item A51 extended price should be $1000)
resulting in a $500.00 increase in the bid amount.
Bid Review
Three references were checked, resulting in favorable reviews:
WSDOT Swinomish Slough Bridge Seismic Repair
City of Renton Monster Road Bridge Replacement
King Co. (JGM) Marymoor Pedestrian Bridge
DBE status and percentages were verified.
In general, C.A. Carey's bid appears to be responsive and they appear qualified to
accomplish the work. We recommend acceptance of their bid.
If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.
Sincerely,
ENTRANCO, Inc.

1. 2003 Bridge Insuections Agreement Staff has chosen Sargent Engineers to do this years'
bridge inspections. Three firms were rated for this project. Six bridges will be inspected, and the
bridge deck of Boeing Access Road will be surveyed and options will be prepared for repairs.
The budget for engineering is $48,000. The proposed contract is $25,695. Money from this
budget will also be needed later to analyze the scouring on the Boeing Access Bridge.
Recommend agreement with Sargent Engineers for $25.695 to a Regular Meeting.
2. Interurban Bridge Widening This project was bid last year, but all the bids were over the
city's budget. Some project items were reduced, and the project was re -bid this year. One of the
eight bids received was Iow enough to be able to move ahead with the project. The bridge will be
widened to allow two left turns to I -405, and the Interurban Bridge trail design is included in this
bid. The low bidder was C.A. Carey, whose references checked out. Award Interurban Bridges
nroiect to C.A. Carey at a Regular Meeting.
3. Duwamish Parking Pam L brought up the issue of the street parking shortage in Duwamish
which results when residences have many people over for a family gathering or a party. There
were a couple of issues: whether private parking was allowed on a side street, and how to resolve
the disagreement between neighbors about parking. Some apparently like the smaller streets with
no parking. Others would like to be able to park when they have extra cars visiting their homes.
Jim M suggested those with gatherings at their homes get a "ID" type permit that allows parking
on the streets. Jim suggested saying that the city built the street as the citizens had asked, and if
they now want to change that, they need to petition the city or otherwise request the change. Pam
thought a reasonable option would be to allow parking on one side of the street only, with no
overnight parking. Pam thought if someone got a petition to allow parking it could appear to be
a majority opinion, but could be the result of skewing the wording to make the altemative look
unreasonable. She thought people should have both a parking and a no- parking petition to get
both sides involved. Information.
