II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This project is funded through a federal Head Start grant received by the County Community Services Department. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: Four bids were received and opened on Tuesday, November 12, 1991 for Community Services Department Head Start Grant, Head Start Conversion, Units 407/408, CA011006, Las Deltas, Richmond. The successful low bidder was Perez-Chin Tierra, Inc. with a bid in the amount of $89,888. This company was sent an award letter instructing them to present the required payment and performance bonds within ten (10) days. No bonds were submitted. Perez-Chin Tierra was again instructed by certified mail on January 17, 1992 that the bonds were required and if not received by January 24, 1992, the bidder would be considered unresponsive and that it would be recommended that the award be withdrawn. Again the bonds were not received. The Housing Authority staff has conferred with County Counsel on this matter. At its regular meeting on February 24, 1992 the Advisory Housing Commission recommended the withdrawal of award of contract to Perez-Chin Tierra, Inc. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Should the Board of Commissioners elect not to approve withdrawal of award of contract to Perez-Chin Tierra, Inc., the Housing Authority will experience delays in the Head Start conversion project.
