Item # 16.C.2
ID# 2025-787
Executive Summary
Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners, as ex-officio the Governing Board of the Collier County
Water-Sewer District, award Invitation to Bid (“ITB”) No. 24-8264R, “Golden Gate City Water Treatment Plant
Demolition,” to REMI Companies, LLC, in the amount of $759,250.00, approve an Owner’s Allowance of $75,000.00,
approve the necessary Budget Amendment, and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Agreement. (Project Number
70263)
OBJECTIVE: To demolish aging water treatment structures at the Golden Gate City Water Treatment Plant due to the
water plant being decommissioned.
CONSIDERATIONS: The Collier County Water Sewer District ("CCWSD") has established GIS-based integrated
Enterprise Asset Management ("EAM") where assets are routinely evaluated and conditions in the field updated by
Operations Divisions and, when appropriate, they are listed under the Capital Improvements Plan ("CIP") for
Engineering and Project Management to implement the soonest possible. CCWSD EAM drives the priorities for
investment in our Critical Infrastructure where replacements, re-hab, and repairs are planned and implemented prior to a
failure (Cat Red-F and Red-E) that would result in Utility Service outages and negative customer service impact. The
Engineering and Project Management Division of the Public Utilities Department has completed QA/QC and
programmed this project.
On February 27, 2018, the Board approved closing on the acquisition of the Real and Personal Property constituting the
Golden Gate City Water Treatment Plant (the “Golden Gate Treatment Plant”), which was then owned by FGUA, to
provide water and wastewater services in Golden Gate City. Following the acquisition of the Golden Gate Treatment
Plant, the CCWSD began interconnecting the CCWSD’s existing regional water system and the water system serving
the Golden Gate community, which now enables the CCWSD to decommission the Golden Gate Treatment Plant.
This project provides for the demolition of specific existing water treatment plant buildings and associated
infrastructure. The remaining site, structures, and infrastructure will be retained to support future CCWSD utility
infrastructure, including but not limited to an irrigation quality pump station network to enhance and expand IQ water to
the surrounding area.
On October 7, 2024, the Procurement Services Division issued ITB No. 24-8264R, seeking construction services for the
Golden Gate Treatment Plant demolition project. The County received four bids by the November 21, 2024, deadline as
summarized below:
Company Name City County State Amount Responsive/
Responsible
REMI Companies, LLC Englewood Sarasota FL $759,250 Yes/Yes
D.H. Griffin Wrecking Company, Inc. Greensboro Guilford NC $781,738 Yes/Yes
RJ Engineering Construction Corp. West Palm
Beach
Palm Beach FL $954,000 Yes/Yes
R&R Demolition & Recycling, LLC Plant City Hillsborough FL $498,968 No/Yes
Staff reviewed the four bids and determined that three bidders were responsive and responsible, with REMI Companies,
LLC (“REMI”) as the lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder. Staff found R&R Demolition & Recycling, LLC non-
responsive for failing to submit all required bid documents. Staff recommends that the attached Agreement be awarded
to REMI in its low bid amount of $759,250. In addition to the total bid amount, staff has allocated an Owner’s
Allowance of $75,000 for unforeseen site conditions that might be encountered during construction, which will be
included in the Purchase Order. Use of the allowance will be only as directed by the County, if necessary, with proper
supporting documentation to be submitted by the contractor for any additional work that is authorized and actually

performed.
The County’s engineering consultant, Carollo Engineers, Inc., evaluated the bids and determined that REMI met all the
qualifications for the project and submitted the lowest, responsive, and responsible base bid. REMI’s bid is
approximately 5% below Carollo’s $800,000 opinion of probable cost for the work.
REMI has provided services in Florida since 2022 and has performed work for other Florida municipalities. Therefore,
staff recommends that the Board award REMI Companies, LLC, the attached Agreement in the amount of $759,250.00,
and approve the Owner’s Allowance in the amount of $75,000.
This item is consistent with the Infrastructure and Asset Management element of the Collier County Strategic Plan
objectives.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding in the total amount of $759,250 is needed for the Golden Gate City Water Treatment Plant
Demolition project (Project No. 70263). A budget amendment in the total amount of $234,000 is required to reallocate
available funding within the Water User Fee Capital Fund (4012), from Project No. 71063 to Project No. 70263.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This project meets current Growth Management Plan standards to ensure the
adequacy and availability of viable public facilities.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for Board
approval. —SRT
RECOMMENDATIONS: Recommendation that the Board of County Commissioners, as ex-officio the Governing
Board of the Collier County Water-Sewer District, award ITB No. 24-8264R, “Golden Gate City Water Treatment Plant
Demolition,” to REMI Companies, LLC, in the amount of $759,250.00, approve an Owner’s Allowance of $75,000.00,
approve the necessary Budget Amendment, and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Agreement. (Project

Subject: Golden Gate City WTP Demolition
Opinion of Bid Acceptability
Dear Mr. Sivert:
The purpose of this letter is to provide Collier County (County) with an opinion of bid acceptability for the above
referenced project. The bids for the project were received electronically on November 21, 2024 by the County. A
total of four bids were received, with bid amounts ranging from $498,968 to $954,000. The apparent low bidder
was R&R Demolition & Recycling, LLC with a bid amount of $498,968 but was deemed non-responsive by the
County. Therefore, the next apparent low bidder was REMI Companies, LLC with a bid amount of $759,250.
The scope of the project includes the demolition of the Golden Gate Water Treatment Plant (GGWTP) including
but not limited to the following structures: above ground infrastructure for wells 1, 2A, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 11, west
lime softening reactor, west filters, injection points 1 and 2, backwash holding basin, filter backwash tank, east
lime softening reactor and structure, east sludge storage tanks, lime silo and slaker building, membrane filtration
building, fluoride building, chemical storage tanks and building, chlorine building, diesel fuel storage tank, high
service pumps 1 through 4, submersible pump station, sulfuric acid storage tank, sulfuric acid containment basin,
and RO membrane filtration building. The work also includes excavation and isolation of the existing 0.5 mgd
ground storage tank influent and effluent piping, removal and disposal of equipment located within the existing
RO membrane building, and repair and reconstruction of existing improvements affected by the work.
The Engineer’s Opinion of Probable Construction (OPCC) cost for this project was $800,000. When comparing the
low bidder's total bid amount to the Engineer’s OPCC, the low bid was approximately 5.1% below the Engineer’s
OPCC. According to recommended practice for estimate classification published by the Association for the
Advancement of Cost Engineering (AACEI), the expected accuracy range for this Engineer’s OPCC is within +15%
or -5%. This means that bids can be expected to fall within a range of 15% over the Engineer’s OPCC to 5% under
that estimate. The apparent low bid received fell marginally outside this accuracy range by 0.1%, which is
considered to be consistent with the range.
References were provided and reviewed per the experience qualifications included in the solicitation. The
reference information was interpreted to meet the specified requirement.

The County requested Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo) to evaluate the low bid and provide an opinion of bid
acceptability. As noted above and based on all other bidding requirements having been met, Carollo

Companies LLC in the amount of $759,250.
