VAIL TOWN COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO

ITEM/TOPIC:   Buffehr Creek Road Quality Improvements Contract Award

BACKGROUND:   Town staff received three bids for the Buffehr Creek Road Water Quality Improvements project, with Icon, Inc. the low responsible bidder.  The uphill ditch along Buffehr Creek Road above 1701 Buffehr Creek Rd has significant scour due to the steep grade of the roadway.  This scour discharges the sediment directly into Buffer Creek.  To prevent this sediment from entering Buffehr Creek the project includes installing 1,000 feet of curb and gutter to prevent ditch erosion and 3 inlets with deep sumps to trap sediment.  The project is within the engineer’s estimate. 

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:   Authorize the Town Manager to enter into an agreement, in a form approved by the Town Attorney, with Icon, Inc. to complete the Buffehr Creek Road Water Quality Improvements project in the amount not to exceed $125,000.00.
