DATE: May 28, 1991
SUBJECT: SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT IN FRIENDLY VALLEY/SKY BLUE MESA AREAS
(PROJECT 90-10) - BID AWARD
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BACKGROUND
On April 23, 1991, Council authorized the advertisement of the subject project.
The project consists of permanent concrete replacement of previously
asphalt -repaired and displaced sections of sidewalks, curb and gutter, the vast
majority of which have been caused by tree -root damage.
On Tuesday, May 14, 1991, the following bids were received by the City Clerk:
Company Bid Amount
Berry General Engineering $42,363.40
Contractors, Inc.
Grigolla & Sons $42,527.00
Kalban, Inc. $53,261.00
B-1 Engineering $55,325.30
Los Angeles Engineering $64,299.00
Padilla & Sons, Inc. $76,353.00
J.D.C. General Engineering $77,376.00
RC Baker & Sons $88,947.80
The low bid is 48% below the Engineer's Estimate of $81,970. There were
fourteen bid packages sold and eight bids received indicating considerable
interest and competitiveness for this type of project. The low amount of the
bid will allow the construction of additional sidewalks at the same price by
change orders to the contract. The specifications allow up to 25% increase in
the quantity of work, which would still be well under the project budget. A
total of $100,000 has been budgeted under Account No. 25-96046-227 and is
sufficient to cover the costs for design, contract administration, inspection
and construction of this project and any change orders which might be issued.
Staff recommends that the project be awarded to Berry General Engineering, the
low bidder. Berry General Engineering possesses the necessary State
Contractor's license and is a member in good standing. The contractor has
completed a widening project in the City of Santa Clarita, and their work was
determined to be satisfactory.
Award the contract to Berry General Engineering Contractors, Inc. in the amount
of $42,363.40.
