Meeting Date 9/6/83
ITEM TITLE: Resolution //3, Accepting bids and awarding ` contract for
widening of Otay Lakes Road for bicycle route improvements in
the City of Chula Vis a, California
SUBMITTED BY: City Engineer (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
REVIEWED BY: City Manager 1∎1" /
At 2:00 p.m. on August 24, 1983, in Conference Rooms 2 and 3 in the Public
Services Building, the City Engineer received sealed bids for "Widening of
Otay Lakes Road for bicycle route improvements in the City of Chula Vista,
California" . The work to be done consists of widening approximately 430
lineal feet of Otay Lakes Road, 5 feet northerly to provide a bike lane.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council :
1 . Authorize the expenditure of $10,500 from Account No. 602-6020-LT02 - Bike
Lane Otay Lakes Road.
2. Accept bids and award contract to ABC Construction Co. , Inc. - San Diego
in the amount of $8,648.60.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Bids were received from four contractors as follows:
CONTRACTOR BID AMOUNT
1 . ABC Construction Co. , Inc. - San Diego $ 8,648.60
2. A-C Co. , Inc. - San Diego 9,835.00
3. Ripley Construction - San Diego 11,557.00
4. R. E. Hazard Contracting Co. - San Diego 13,590.00
The low bid by ABC Construction Co. , Inc. was above the Engineer' s estimate of
$7,032 by $1,616.60 or 23%. Because this is a small project, it is difficult
to estimate costs for demolition and disposal of existing improvements,
excavation and subgrade preparation. The various contractors considered these
costs to be much higher than we anticipated. Bid prices for this kind of work
tend to be higher for small projects. We have reviewed the bids and find the
low bid to be satisfactory.
