REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
A. On June 14 , 1988 , the Board awarded a construction contract for the
West County Justice Center, Project B, to Walsh Construction Company,
Sacramento, California.
B. The prime contractor, in a letter dated May 5 , 1988 , requested
approval to substitute Herb Shearer Plastering, Inc. of Bakersfield,
for the drywall/lath and plaster subcontractor listed in the original
bid, Frederick Meiswinkel, Inc. of San Francisco. The reason given
for the requested substitution was a clerical error made in listing
subcontractors at the time of bid.
C. The County Administrator ' s Office, in a letter dated May 26 , 1988 ,
notified Frederick Meiswinkel, Inc. of the prime contractor ' s request
for substitution. The notification gave five working days within
which to submit written objections to the substitution.
D. Frederick Meiswinkel, Inc. , in a letter dated June 6 , 1988 , objected
to the prime contractor' s request for substitution. Since this
subcontractor has filed written objections, it is necessary for the
Board to schedule a hearing and to provide five working days notice to
the hearing date to the affected subcontractor , the proposed
substituted subcontractor and the prime cont actor, all as specified
in the Public Contract Code, Section 4107 .

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Failure to approve this recommendation will leave the issue unresolved,
will delay completion of the project, and, possibly expose the Board to
claims by the prime contractor for delay.
