Title
Bid Award - Reserve Park (B)
This item is a request for the City Commission to authorize the bid award to Anglin Construction Company for the construction of Reserve Park, a new neighborhood park located at 700 NE 11th Street.
Explanation
On December 4th, 2018 the Purchasing Division solicited bids for the Reserve Park project. A non-mandatory pre-bid conference was held on December 18th, at 1:00 p.m. at City Hall.

The Reserve Park project is funded through the Wild Spaces & Public Places ½ cent sales tax, a Reserve Park CIP fund, Public Works’ CIP Sidewalk Funding (for the sidewalk on NE 11th Street north to NE 8th Avenue), and Tree Mitigation Funding to support additional tree plantings in the park.
