RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA
VISTA REJECTING BIDS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF MUELLER
NEIGHBORHOOD PARK, PHASE II
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, two bids were received in response to advertising
for construction of Mueller Neighborhood Park, Phase II, and
WHEREAS, both bids exceed the engineer's estimate, the low
bid by 320, and
WHEREAS, upon close analysis and comparison of the bids,
it was observed that the cost of individual bid items vary greatly
between the two contractors submitting bids and there appears to be
no logical explanation why the cost of individual bid items are so
far apart, and
WHEREAS, the fact that only two bids were received makes
it questionable whether the City obtained competitive bids and it is
difficult to evaluate these two bids without a third bid or more by
which to judge them, and
WHEREAS, this is a period in which contractors are currently
extremely busy and small contracts are not as desirable as contracts
with a much larger dollar value and since small contracts are not
desirable at this time, contractors are tending to bid these type
contracts much higher than they normally would, and
WHEREAS, the Director of Public Works and the Director of
Parks ,and Recreation recommend that both bids be rejected and the
project be readvertised.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Chula Vista that the bids received for the construction of
Mueller Neighborhood Park, Phase II be, and the same are hereby
rejected and the staff is directed to readvertise for bids for this
project.
