BACKGROUND
There is a need to address existing and future space requirements at City Hall. In 2002, the City
constructed the Santa Clarita Activities Center located at the southeast corner of Golden Valley
Road and Centre Pointe Parkway. The property is located in the central section of the City within
the community of Canyon Country. When the Activities Center was constructed, the City's
QPP'� ED
vision was that the building could also provide for the future recreational and staff needs. This
move is a step towards addressing growing space needs by relocating the City's Community
Services and Recreation Divisions staff from the first floor of City Hall to the Santa Clarita
Activities Center.
The improvement at the Santa Clarita Activities Center will buildout the mezzanine,, add
26 additional cubicles, 2 offices, 3 conference rooms, a new ballet room, 4 storage closets, a
break room, copy center, and women's and men's restrooms.
The City issued a Notice Inviting Bids on November 28, 2007. The project plan holders list
consisted of a,total of 36 plan holders. On January 8, 2008, the City's Purchasing Division
received 12 bids for the project. The lowest responsive bid was submitted by C'.J. Tech
Construction, Inc. in the amount of $596,000. C.J Tech Construction, Inc. possesses a State
Contractor's License and is in good standing with the State Contractor's, License Board.
While the City maintains a "Support of Local Businesses" policy that can be utilized by the City
Council when warranted, the City is governed by the State Public Contract Code with regard to
public works project procurement. In these types of procurement, the Public Contract Code does
not permit a City to utilize a "Support of Local Businesses" policy and instead requires the
contract be awarded to the "lowest responsible bidder." As confirmed by the City Attorney's
Office, this direction precludes the City from applying any superseding criteria for award except
in -the case of a tie. Thus, in the awarding of Public Works contracts, the City is not permitted to
award to the second low bidder just because they are local as the State Public Contract Code does
not allow the City to recognize them as the "lowest" responsible bidder.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds to complete the project are appropriated in Expenditure Account
No. F3015601-5161.001.
