BACKGROUND Phase IV of the Santa Clarita Sports Complex is divided into 3 different projects in the following order: grading and drainage improvements, skate park construction, and gymnasium expansion. This part of the project, grading and drainage improvements, includes mass grading and construction of a new debris basin and storm drain system. The other 2 parts of this phase will shortly follow this project. On March 25, 2008, the City Council directed staff to advertise for construction bids. On April 28, 2008, the City's Purchasing Division received 11 bids for the project (Exhibit "A"). The lowest responsive bid was submitted by Sukut Construction, Inc. in the amount of $2,742,349. Staff recommends that the project be awarded to Sukut Construction, Inc., the lowest responsive bidder. Sukut Construction, Inc. possesses a state contractor's license and is in good standing with the State Contractor's Board. The bid from Sukut Construction, Inc. in the amount of $2,742,349 was reviewed for accuracy and conformance to the contract documents and was found to be complete. 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. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS Other action as determined by the City,Council. FISCAL IMPACT The project construction budget currently has $2,270,000 in available funding. The requested appropriation of $1,968,701 from the Public Facilities Replacement fund balance into Santa Clarita Sports Complex Phase IV Grading and Drainage Improvements Expenditure Account P3012723-5161.001 should adequately provide for anticipated construction costs.
