Cedar Hills awards bid for park and golf maintenance building January 25, 2017, 5:09 pmThe project was bid out with a base bid and alternatives. Option A included upgraded trees and shrubs. Option B would add a pavilion. Option C would add fill and option D would add a gate at the trailhead. Since the total budget allocation for the park was $446,000, city officials decided to go with the base bid and look at bidding out the pavilion separately in the future. They're looking at other options for the fill and gate. This was the second time the project was put out for bids. The city council requested the request for proposals go out again to try and get more bids. This time, 12 companies were invited to submit bids, but only S & L Inc. and Stratton Bratt (bid: $441,601.33) responded with bids. At the same meeting, the city council awarded a bid for construction of a golf maintenance building to Big-B Construction. City Manager David Bunker said he received six qualified bids, with Big-B Construction providing the lowest base bid. There were two alternatives; the first was to remove the canvas tent and construct a steel building. The second alternative would remove the canvas building, pave underneath and then reinstall the frame. The city would then need to contract with a separate firm for a new canvas covering (at an additional cost of $28,000). The original budget for the building was $300,000. Big-B Construction's bid was $395,860. Bunker reported to the council that Big-B Construction was looking into combining the two buildings into one structure to save costs. The city council approved the bid with the first alternative while asking Big-B Construction to investigate combining the two buildings. On Nov. 15, the city council also approved an ordinance amending the city code governing renewable energy systems. This effectively ended a three-month moratorium on such systems.

On Dec. 16, the city council ratified Mayor Gary Gygi's appointment of Chandler Goodwin as interim city manager after David Bunker left the position to become American Fork's new city administrator.
