BACKGROUND
The Gaston County Board of Commissioners approved funding in the FY19-20 budget to complete pavement repairs at various County facilities. Due to age and continued usage of these parking lots / drives, the pavement has deteriorated resulting in pavement failures that continue to worsen. Terracon Consultants previously conducted an in-depth study of various pavement systems and provided repair recommendations to Gaston County. Based on the results of that study, Robinson & Sawyer, Inc. designed pavement repairs and prepared bidding documents for public bidding purposes. The project was publicly advertised on September 8, 2019 and a bid opening was held September 26, 2019 with the following results:
Granite Contracting, Charlotte, NC $389,521.92
OnSite Development, Charlotte, NC $391,378.40
Catalyst Construction Company, Charlotte, NC $746,290.00
Blythe Development Company, Charlotte, NC $649,972.32
Based on the bids received, this Board Action deems Granite Contracting as the contractor submitting the lowest responsible bid. Approval of this Board Action formally selects Granite Contracting to perform the repair work associated with the project, directs the County Attorney to draft all necessary contract documents, and authorizes the County Manager or her designee to execute said documents for an amount not to exceed $389.521.92.
