RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize staff to reject all bids received on Tuesday, October 3, 1989 for the Additions and Alterations to the Field House, CA011010, Bayo Vista Rodeo, which houses the Boys & Girls Club of Rodeo/Crockett and funded through CDBG/PHA Local Management Reserves Fund, and to rebid the contract work after revision of the plans and specifications as recommended by the Advisory Housing Commission. II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None at this time. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: Bid requests were advertised in the Contra Costa Times. In an outreach effort, the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa mailed requests for proposals to small business, female and minority enterprises in the Bay Area. Bids were opened on Tuesday, October 3, 1989 at 2:00 p.m. and were received from three contracting firms. All bids received were in excess of the allotted funds and as stated in both the Instructions to Bidders and Invitation for Bids, "The Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa reserves the right to reject any or all bids or to. waive any informalities in the bidding." At its October 23, 1989 regular meeting, the Advisory Housing Commission voted to reject all bids, authorize revision of the plans and specifications and re-advertise for the Additions and Alterations to the Field House. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners fail to respond positively to the request to rebid the contract work for additions and alterations to the Field House, the funds allocated by CDBG/PHA Local Management Reserves Funds would be jeopardized and the Board of Commisioners would be acting in a manner contrary to its adopted position of providing decent, safe and sanitary housing for low-income families.
