BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Department' s -goal is to utilize all the grant funds that have been
made available to the County. Grant funds are provided by the State' s
Energy program. Maximizing Ithe utilization of available funds would help
improve the quality of dwellings in Contra Costa County. These funds are
targeted to low-income residents, in order to help lower their energy
expenses. Specifically, the funds are used to install hot water heaters,
heaters, stoves, refrigerators, microwaves, florescent light bulbs,
weather-stripping, attic insulation, switch and plug gaskets, and water
heater blankets.
I
In order to increase the production level and maximize utilization of these
available funds, the Department decided to increase its use of outside
contractors. The Department solicited bids from 28 contractors, and
received bids from 4 firms. Pacific Heating & Sheet Metal Co. Inc. was the
lowest responsible bidder. They are not only a small business enterprise,
but they are also both a minority and local business enterprise.
