BID AWARD
ISSUE
Award the S. 129th Street Drainage Modification Contract to Brike Excavating and Underground Utilities
LLC, of Renton, Washington.
BACKGROUND
A property owner recently notified the City that a drainage swale had been placed on his property without his
approval and he would like it removed. City staff investigated his claim and determined that the swale was
installed on private property as part of the City's 1999 Small Drainage Project. The swale was to be placed
on the adjacent City owned parcel to the south but was designed and constructed using the wrong parcel.
ACTION TAKEN
KPG was contacted to design a new drainage system to allow for the removal of the swale from private
property. The design calls for piping the drainage across S. 129th Street and construction of an infiltration
system within the Codiga Farms site and adjacent to the roadway. No piped drainage outfalls to the river
exist in the area so infiltration is the only available option to dispose of the roadway runoff.
The Small Works Roster was consulted and letters were sent to six firms that were qualified for this type of
work requesting bids. Three bids were received with Brike Excavating as the low bidder. The bid results are
as follows:
Brike Excavating
Pivetta Brothers
Dennis R. Craig
$37,697.91
$49,253.00
$49,769.00
Brike Excavating has completed several projects for the City and has performed quality work.
