Subject: Bids for Pilak Creek Stream Stabilization Project
Date: November 20, 2007
Background
The City entered into a professional services agreement with Bonestroo and Asso. in
October 2005 to peñorm a stream bank analysis and stabilization design for Pilak
Creek from Reise Drive to Woods Road, a distance of 2900 lineal feet. A DNR
Chapter 30 permit application was submitted in March 2006 and approved in April
2006.
During the Chapter 30 permit review process, the DNR instructed the City and
Bonestroo to submit a Deer Farm Fence Certificate application because
approximately 400' downstream from Reise Drive is an old deer farm. According to
DNR representatives, the deer farm has potential CWD environmental
contamination and working along and downstream of the deer farm requires all
topsoil to be stripped and landfilled and all stripped areas to be covered with new
clean soil. This work would be very expensive and it was decided that no work
would be done from the deer farm downstream to Woods Road.
The 2007 budget included money for a scaled back Pilak Creek project which
included work on the west bank from Reise Drive to 250' downstream. The work is
best accomplished in winter therefore a schedule was set to bid in fall for winter
construction.
Bids were opened on October 25, 2007 for the above subject project as follows:
Bidder Base Bid
Greener Valley Landscape, Inc.
Henry R. Marohl, Inc.
C.W. Purpero, Inc.
Western Contractors, Inc.
Woleske Construction, Inc
$56,375.00
$66,547.50
$81,987.50
$134,375.00
$217,066.00
The construction estimate for this project is $55,000.
Recommendation for Action by Public Works Committee:
The project would provide improvements to stabilize the eroded bank along the
property at S81 W17963 Reise Drive. The property owner was advised of the project
when the Chapter 30 permit application was submitted but just now sent a letter
stating no support for this project. I have met with another area property owner

who stated that the general consensus of the Reise Drive neighborhood is to do
nothing. The plans are complete and can be kept on the shelf should the need to do
the project arise in the future.
The Public Works Committee recommends that the Common Council reject bids
received for the Pilak Creek Stream Stabilization Project.
