DISCUSSION:
The City Council on September 27, 1983, by Resolution 11389 rejected bids for
the reroofing of the City Hall and Fire Station No. 1 in the City of Chula
Vista. These bids were rejected for the following reasons:
1. The number of bids received was not be believed to be responsive (only one
bid was received) .
2. The low bid was over the engineer's estimate.
3. The specifications were to be revised by the Building & Housing Department
to clarify certain items which will result in more bidders and lower
prices.
City then readvertised the project specifications on October 2, 1983.

Bids were received from two contractors as follows:
1 . E. A. Brown Roofing Co. , San Diego $69,696.00
2. American Pacific Roofing Company, San Diego 99,665.00
The low bid by E. A. Brown Roofing Co. was below the engineer's estimate of
$98,000 by $28,304 or 29 percent. The bid was also below the previous bid of
$98,604.00 received on September 14, 1983. The City, therefore, saved $28,908
by rebidding the project. Both the City Engineer and the Director of Building
and Housing have reviewed the low bid and recommend its award.
