a named insured.
8. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance proceeds broader than or in excess
of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or limits shall be available to City or any other
additional insured party. Furthermore, the requirements for coverage and limits shall be: (1) the minimum
coverage and limits specified in this Agreement; or (2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of

obligations apply regardless of whether or not a liability is caused or contributed to by the active or passive
negligence of the City Indemnitees. However, to the extent that liability is caused by the active negligence or
willful misconduct of the City Indemnitees, the Contractor's indemnification obligation shall be reduced in
proportion to the City Indemnitees' share of liability for the active negligence or willful misconduct. In addition,

SUBJECT: Peacock Gap Spring Repair
Informal Construction Contract Award
Biscayne Drive has deteriorated in a specific area in front of the Peacock Gap Golf Course due to a
natural spring. Our Streets Division has applied temporary patches over several years that continue to fail
due to the amount of water under the roadway. In order to repair the damaged area and prevent future
damage from subterranean water, our Engineering Division has developed a plan to install sub drains,
drain rock, and a geotextile fabric under this section of Biscayne Drive. Excavation of the roadway is
needed with resurfacing to follow the installation of a drainage system.
This informal project was advertised for bid on Monday April 3, 2017 and on Tuesday April 18, 2017 the
following bids were received:
Bidder Amount
W.R. Forde Associates $74,210.00
Wildcat Engineering $85,030.00
Ghilotti Construction Company $111,560.00
The Engineer's Estimate for the project was $61,000.
This unanticipated project, which was not identified on the City's Capital Improvement Program, has not
been discussed with the general public. It is anticipated that our staff will communicate directly with the
Peacock Gap Golf Course to minimize any access impact to this property. The work is only anticipated to
last a few days.
The referenced bids have been reviewed by Public Works staff and found to be both responsive and
responsible. The low bid from W.R. Forde Associates in the amount of $74,210 falls within the allocated
project budget.
