Brief History
In order to meet current obligations to improve traffic conditions and promote pedestrian safety, it will be necessary for the City to increase the contract with its current Street Improvement Contractor, Metro Express, Inc. in the amount of $150,000, thereby increasing the total contract amount to $1,350,000 for the remainder of the final contract period ending on September 30, 2010.
Metro Express Inc.'s original contract was awarded by the City Commission (Resolution No. 2007-98) on May 22, 2007 in the amount of $1,200,000 for a one-year period with two (2) one-year renewable options not to exceed $1,200,000 each. This contract was amended by City Resolution No. 2008-16 on January 22, 2008, by increasing the first year contract limit by $800,000 for a total amount of $2,000,000. Subsequently, a Purchase Order was issued in the amount of $2,400,000 to reflect the contract renewals for FY 2009 and FY 2010.
The $150,000 increase in contract limit with Metro Express, Inc. will complete their contract final year for an amount of $1,350,000 for the three-year period from FY 2008 - FY 2010. This increase in contract amount will allow the completion of various paving, drainage, and traffic calming projects.
The contract is funded by the Gasoline Tax Roadway Improvement Fund and the Stormwater Utility Fund.
