C. 2007 Asphalt Overlay Project Bid Award John Mulkey provided the background information on this item. Council Member Kochmar asked why the fees are separated, is there a reason they are not all part of the engineer’s estimate? Mr. Mulkey replied they are separated because the engineer’s estimate is just for the construction cost. Council Member Kochmar asked why all three bids were about $40,000 over the city’s estimated funding amount. Mr. Mulkey explained that prices increased more than the city’s anticipated price increases. In addition, there is more construction in the area and therefore, more competition for material and thereby, higher prices.
