CAMDEN — The Town of Camden has three bids, ranging from $9.5 million to $10.7 million, before it from companies that are competing for the job of upgrading the municipal waste water treatment plant.
On Dec. 15, at a regularly scheduled Select Board meeting, the town will consider the bids from Apex Construction, Penta Corporation and T-Buck Construction, and possibly vote to go with one of them.
Wright-Pierce Engineers, based in Topsham, evaluated the bids and submitted the following to the Select Board:
“Apex Construction, Inc. was the low bidder with a Total Bid of $9,542,750.00 which is approximately 14% lower than the engineer’s estimate, 11% lower than the high bid and 3% lower than the median bid. Wright-Pierce reviewed the low bid in detail and noted no deficiencies in the bid. Wright-Pierce contacted Apex Construction and they did not find any errors in their bid and are willing to perform the work for the bid price submitted.”
