<br /> <br /> <br /> Rejection of Bids For Local <br /> Street Slurry Seal 2010 <br /> October 18, 2010 <br /> Page 2 <br /> A total of six bids were received. The lowest bid was submitted by American Asphalt South (AAS) <br /> for $845,030, which is above the Engineer's estimate of $693,540. In its bid, AAS indicated that it <br /> would use an alternate slurry seal material in lieu of the specified material. The material submitted <br /> by AAS was not accepted by City staff. As provided in the specifications, the low bidder requested <br /> a hearing with the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency to appeal this decision. A <br /> hearing was subsequently held by the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency with all the <br /> bidders to review the alternate material proposed by AAS. <br /> With the delay caused by the hearing process and the investigation, construction of the project <br /> probably would not start until late November or early December, 2010. During that time the <br /> temperature will be low and frequent rains may occur during which slurry seal cannot be placed. <br /> Based on the above, staff recommends that all bids be rejected and the project will be readvertised <br /> early next year. <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br /> There is no environmental impact associated with this action. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. <br /> <br /> Raul Godinez II <br /> Executive Director <br /> Public Works Agency <br /> RG/wA <br /> Exhibit 1: Project Location Map <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 23A-2 <br />
