DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency maintains a pavement management system that contains street pavement condition inventory data. Based on this system, certain streets have been identified for slurry seal to prevent further deterioration. Slurry seal is durable and cost effective. The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on February, 30 and 31, 2007, and bids were opened on April 26, 2007. A summary of the bid invitations mailed, the bids received, and the bid results follows. Santa Ana Contractors receiving notices: 6 Contractors requesting bidding documents: 14 Bids received: 4 Bids received from Santa Ana Contractors: 0 NAME OF BIDDER CITY BID AMOUNT $828,508 1. American Asphalt South, Inc. Fontana A total of four bids were received and only one was responsive. Three of four bidders submitted incomplete bids. Roy Allan Slurry Seal, Inc. failed to include a price for a bid item. Pavement Coatings Co.'s bid failed to include a revised bid schedule which the City issued as Addendum no. 3. Due to a clerical error, Addendum no. 3 was not sent to Bond Blacktop, Inc. and as a result its bid did not contain the correct bid schedule. The only responsive bid was submitted by American Asphalt South, Inc. for $828,508, which is above the Engineer's estimate. 23C-1 Citywide Slurry Seal May 7, 2007 Page 2 Based on the above, staff recommends that all bids be rejected. Staff believes rebidding the project will mitigate the effect caused by the addendum and therefore provide for more competitive bids. Following Council action, staff will re-advertise the project for bids and bring it back to the City Council on June 4, 2007 for award. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. ~ -- ~~~~ James G.~s Executive Director Public Works Agency K:\Construction\RFCA-draft\07-1027 Citywide Slurry Seal.doc 60 WD 23C-2
