Medicine Lake Park Phase 1 renovation. The project included the replacement of the shelter structure
with bathrooms and an outdoor shower facility; and
WHEREAS, on May 23, 2017, sealed bids were opened at Plymouth City Hall. The City
received four bids. The apparent low bidder was $195,196 higher than the engineer's estimate. As a
result, all bids were rejected, and phase one and two were combined; and

combined renovation project. The City received seven bids as outlined below. The consultant's
estimated cost for the base bid and alternate 11 (solid surface counter in lieu of stainless steel) was

costs are inclusive of the base bid and alternate bid construction cost, consultant fees and
