About this file

This document is Addendum No. 1 for the Monroe Street Reconstruction project issued by the City of Hillsdale, Michigan, dated March 19, 2025. The addendum provides clarifications and modifications to the bid documents, with a submittal date of 2:00 pm on March 27, 2025. Key modifications include soil boring information for two locations (B-2 at the west end and B-3 at the east end), approval to use SDR 35 PVC pipes in specific 8" sections, confirmation that the city will fell required trees by the end of March, and that the contractor will be responsible for removing stumps left approximately 4' tall. The addendum also addresses an unauthorized fishing platform on city property, which will be removed if not voluntarily taken down by the end of April.

The soil boring logs (B-2 and B-3) provide detailed geological information for the project area, revealing varying layers of sand, aggregate base, and fill materials. Boring B-2 shows 3" HMA and 6" milled aggregate base with mostly fine to medium sand layers, while B-3 includes 4" brick fill and 9" natural aggregate base with more varied soil compositions, including sand with clay, gravel, and occasional brick pieces. These detailed geological insights are crucial for understanding the ground conditions and potential construction challenges for the 0.22-mile road reconstruction project, which includes concrete curb and gutter, sidewalk replacement, ADA ramp upgrades, drive approaches, and 800 linear feet of storm sewer construction.

97 NORTH BROAD STREET, HILLSDALE, MI 49242 TEL. 517.437.6440 www.cityofhillsdale.org

Date: March 19, 2025

PROJECT: Monroe Street Reconstruction

SUBMITTAL DATE: 2:00 pm on March 27, 2025

ADDENDUM NO. 1: Bid Documents for this project are being modified, supplemented, clarified or augmented as follows as part of this addendum. All revisions will hereby be made a part of the proposed

Contract Documents.

The following attachments are issued with this addendum.

Drawings: None

Specifications: Soil Borings B-2 & B-3

MODIFICATION NO. SUMMARY

1 Providing the soil borings for Monroe Street, B-2 is at the west end of the project and B-3 is at the east end in the brick area.

QUESTIONS & CLARIFICATIONS

1) Since the drawings call for Cl A pipe and some areas have less than 3’ of cover reinforced concrete pipe would be required, this is not available 8” size, what other material can be used?

The city will allow the 8” sections of pipes shown at 4+80, 6+15 and on page C6, from the manholes to the catch basins, can be SDR 35 PVC.

2) The city will be felling the required trees at the river, in front of 23 Monroe and on the NW corner of Manning/Monroe by the end of March. The contractor will be responsible, under the “Clearing” Special Provision (SP), to remove the stumps at these locations. The stumps will be left approximately 4’ tall.

3) The existing “fishing platform” on the edge of the river was placed on city property without permission. The owner will be notified and will have until the end of April to remove this structure or it will be removed as part of the “Clearing” SP and disposed of under this contract.

Sincerely, Kristin L. Bauer, P.E.

City Engineer – 517-437-6479 http://www.cityofhillsdale.org/
