FISCAL IMPACT:
The construction contract will be funded by 100% Local Road Funds.
BACKGROUND:
The above project was previously approved by the Board of Supervisors, plans and specifications were filed with the
Board, and bids were invited by the Public Works Director. On May 18, 2015, the Public Works Department received
bids from the following contractors:
BIDDER, TOTAL AMOUNT, BOND AMOUNTS
American Pavement Systems: $1,927,395.00; Payment: $1,927,395.00; Performance: $1,927,395.00
The bidder listed above, American Pavement Systems, submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid.
The Public Works Director has reported that American Pavement Systems documented an adequate good faith effort
to comply with the requirements of the County’s Outreach Program, as provided in the project specifications, and the
Public Works Director recommends that the construction contract be awarded to American Pavement Systems.
The Public Works Director recommends that the bid submitted by American Pavement Systems is the lowest
responsive and responsible bid, and this Board concurs and so finds.
The Board of Supervisors previously determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act as a Class 1(c) Exemption, and a Notice of Exemption was filed with the County Clerk on April 2, 2015.
The general prevailing rates of wages, which shall be the minimum rates paid on this project, have been filed with
the Clerk of the Board, and copies will be made available to any party upon request.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Construction of the project would be delayed, and the project might not be built.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
