Response: FPL will be undergrounding the electrical power distribution to transformer pads, followed by extension of service to 62 homes. Power poles and light poles must remain in service until the transfer from overhead to underground can take place. All existing power poles will be removed after near the completion of the project. The bid item will be revised to IIRemove Power/Light Poles". b) Item 16 of the bid form calls for the replacement of brick pavers. Can you provide specs for the type of brick pavers that are required? Or do we have to match the existing brick pavers? If the intention of the plans is to match the existing pavers, please be advised that based on past experience some of the pavers could be discontinued, and if available the color will probably not match the rest of the pavers in the driveway. Owners tend to be very unreasonable when the color of their pavers don't match perfectly. Please advise? Response: A standard apron is shown on the plans with a set distance from the edge of the proposed road to the existing driveways. Instructions are to saw cut the drives regardless of material and match with the proposed pavement. Due to grade deferential between the proposed road and the existing driveway, the paver bricks must be removed and replaced after regrading the driveway. In all cases, the existing pavers are to be salvaged for this work and any excess shall become the property of the owner. c) What is the estimated cost for this project? Response: $1,345,000 excluding the water distribution and FPL underground. d) Can you provide boring logs for this project? The cut for gravity sewer at some locations is 10 feet below existing grade. It will be very helpful to know what the soil strata consists of. Response: See attached Geotechnical Report in this addendum. e) Are there any weight restrictions on the bridges? Response: Yes, 2 front bridges to Collins 99 tons, no load on historical bridge. f) If unsuitable material is found at the bottom of the pipe trench, how deep below the invert of the pipe will the contractor be required to excavate and remove the unsuitable material? Will the additional suitable fill require for backfilling above and below the pipe be paid under Item 14, Select Fill Materials? Response: Yes, however, the quantities removed shall be in accordance with Miami-Dade WASD standards and specifications for sanitary sewer; FDOT for drainage collection system; City of North Miami for the water distribution system. g) Item 12 of the bid form calls for FC 12.7 asphalt instead of SP-9.5 as shown on Sheet C-18 and 19. Which is correct? Response: Fe 12.7. h) What type of asphalt is required for Item No. 17? Response: SP 9.5 for the Laguna only. 04/08 Final Version 00900-2 05-4893
