based on bids received for similar projects in the last several years; and
WHEREAS, on the bid opening date Wier Construction submitted their bid without
attaching the addendure and when later notified that it was missing, they submitted it
immediately; and

process and recommends that Council consider the omission an immaterial defect and waive
this requirement as a condition of awarding the contract; and

(TRANSNET) and based on the current project funding guidelines, no prevailing wage
requirements were necessary as a part of the bid documents; and

adopted by Council on January 20, 1998 by Resolution Nos.18879A & 18879B and the

Engineers (NW26A Nationwide Permit), California Department of Fish and Game (Streambed
