SUMMARY:
On August 4, 2016, Council approved the use of Construction Manager at Risk Services (CMR) for Continuing Contracts with Biltmore Construction Co., Inc. of Belleair, FL; Cathey Construction and Development, LLC of Mexico Beach, FL; Certus Builders, Inc. of Tampa, FL; J. Kokolakis Contracting, Inc. of Tarpons Springs, FL; J.O. Delotto & Sons, Inc. of Tampa, FL; Keystone Excavators, Inc. of Oldsmar, FL; Khors Construction, Inc. of Thonotosassa, FL; and Wharton-Smith, Inc. of Sanford, FL for a period of four years.
These firms were selected in accordance with Florida Statutes 255.103 and 287.055 under Request for Qualifications 24-16 based upon construction experience, financial capability, availability of qualified staff, local knowledge, and involvement in the community.
A capital improvement project to construct four new clay tennis courts at McMullen was first budgeted in Fiscal Year 2008/09 Budget. The project was delayed due to not receiving a grant to fund the project. Since then additional funds have been allocated to the project from Penny III funds as well as a $100,000 grant from the Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program (FRDAP).
This contract will include the site work, storm water improvements, installation of four new clay courts, lighting, and other court amenities. This is a 90-day contract so construction will be completed prior to April 30, 2019.
The delay in getting this project started and increased construction costs have created an issue whereby additional funds are needed. The project currently has a balance of $653,405. A transfer of funds from the following various sources are being requested.
93655 - Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex $67,000
93653 - Countryside Basketball Court $74,782
142-343963 - Recreation Facility Impact Fees $35,900
Total requested to be transferred $177,682
