At 10:00 a.m. on April 10, 2007 the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for
this project:
BIDDER
Low U.S. Construction
2 J & G Industries, Inc.
TOTAL BID AMOUNT
$84,796.00
$89,000.00
The low total bid amount is 54 percent above the Engineer's Estimate of $55,000. The
substantial difference is due to the current escalating cost of building demolition work that
includes removal and disposal of asbestos - containing materials, the current high demand
for similar worts by other agencies, and the lack of bidders. The low bidder, U.S.
Construction, possesses Califomia State Contractors Classification A and C -21 licenses
as required by the project specifications. A check of the Contractor's references
indicates they have satisfactorily completed similar projects for other municipalities, for
school districts, and for Caltrans.
The work necessary for the completion of this contract consists of capping off utility
services; removing and disposing of asbestos - containing materials; demolishing and
