CONSENT CALENDAR
DATE: July 9, 1996
SUBJECT: AWARDING BID FOR POOL CHEMICALS AND SUPPLIES
DEPARTMENT: Parks, Recreation, and Community Services
BACKGROUND
The City has budgeted $36,000.00 mi account #01-9105-215 for the purchase of pool chemicals
and supplies for the five pools operated by the City of Santa Clarita for the 96/97 fiscal year.
On May 29, 1996, the City began advertising bid packages. Four companies received bid
packages.
On June 20, 1996, bids for pool chemicals and supplies were opened. Three companies
submitted bids as follows:
Company Location Amount
1. Leslie's Pool Supplies Chatsworth $1,519.83 (partial bid)
2. Pool Supply of Orange County Santa Ana $22,697.86
3. Inter Valley Pool Supply Azusa $23,767.37
Upon consideration, it has been determined that the apparent low bidder, Leslie's Pool
Supplies, submitted an incomplete bid package. Furthermore, Pool Supply of Orange County
did not include a $37.50 delivery charge per site ($187.50 per week), which over the course
of the contract would add an approximately $3,200. Therefore, the true low bid belongs to
that of Inter Valley Pool Supply.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council reject the number one bid, Leslie's Pool Supply, as
being incomplete and accept bids number two and three, and award a contract to the lowest
qualified bidder, Inter Valley Pool Supply, for the amount of $23,767.37.
