WHEREAS, Yeager-Skanska Inc.'s unit price for line item 133 in words and figures,
along with the total bid amount, is consistent; and
WHEREAS, the bid documents for this project state that if there is a disparity between
the lump sum and unit bid price the unit bid price set forth in figures and words takes
precedence; and
WHEREAS, it is necessary for the benefit of the public to waive the defect because it is
inconsequential, re-bidding the project would delay a $15 million dollar project for at least a
month and a half, and re-bidding the project would also likely result in a significantly higher low
bid.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby award the contract for the "I-805/East Orange Avenue/Olympic Parkway
interchange improvements (Project STM-328)" to Yeager-Skanska Inc., in the amount of
$14,859,035.30.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the inconsequential defect in Yeager-Skanska Inc.'s
bid is waived because it is necessary for the benefit of the public.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Mayor of the City of Chula Vista is hereby
authorized to execute said agreement for and on behalf of the City of Chula Vista.
