ISSUE
Award the Interurban Avenue South Water Line to Gary Merlino Construction Co.
BACKGROUND
This project will replace a 40+ year old 12" cast iron water line along Interurban Avenue South from
4200 Avenue South to 48th Avenue South in front of Shell Oil, Jack In The Box, and Starbucks. The
project was advertised for bid on July 14 and 21 and bids were opened on Friday, August 8, 2008.
Eight bids were received with the low bid of $338,990.00 from Gary Merlino Construction Co., Inc.
The Engineer's Estimate was $395,647.31, including tax.
ANALYSIS
The bids were reviewed and no mathematical errors were found. Gary Merlino Construction Company
did not sign the addendum as required with their bid documents; however once contacted, they
immediately turned in the addendum acknowledgement form to the City. The second low bidder
submitted a bid protest demanding that Gary Merlino Construction Co. bid be rejected as non-
responsive. The contract specifications allow the City to waive any immaterial irregularities such as an
addendum that is not acknowledged.
References indicate that Gary Merlino Construction Co. has performed this type of work for the City of
Tukwila in the past and their work has been satisfactory.
