The Board on December 19, 1989 referred to staff for further
report on this date the recommendation to award the contract for the
Central County Corporation yard for the Public Works Department at
Imhoff Place and Imhoff Drive in the Martinez area to the low bidder,
Dickman-Nourse, Inc. of Mt. View, California.
County Counsel reviewed that the Board had heard the
testimony on this matter last Tuesday, December 19, 1989, and is aware
that the lowest monetary bidder did not meet the County' s absolute
goals and the bidder has asked the County to accept him as making a
good faith effort in this regard, stating that he has made an attempt
to comply with County requirements in a number of regards and is
asking the County to waive the due dates in the specifications for
completing those actions inasmuch as' he feels he has made at least
substantial compliance with the Board' s intent in connection with the
requirements of the County' s Minority and Women Business Enterprise
Program.
Supervisor Schroder moved to award the bid to the lowest
bidder. Supervisor McPeak seconded the motion.
Supervisor Torlakson advised that he was not satisfied, and
would not be supporting the motion.
Supervisor Fanden advised that she did not think it would be
wise to support the lowest bidder and that she thought the appropriate
action would be to throw out all the bids.
The vote on the motion resulted in a tie, and the Chairman
announced that the motion fails for lack of a majority.
