EL SOBRANTE
7. DECLARE that, should the award of the contract to Carone Paving be invalidated for any
reason, the Board would not in any event have awarded the contract to any other bidder, but
instead would have exercised its discretion to reject all of the bids received. Nothing herein shall
prevent the Board from re-awarding the contract to another bidder in cases where the successful
bidder establishes a mistake, refuses to sign the contract or fails to furnish required bonds or
insurance in accordance with Public Contract Code Sections 5100-5107.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Contra Costa County Service Area R-9 funds are budgeted for this project.
BACKGROUND
The project and the plans and specifications were previously filed with and approved by the Board of
Supervisors, and bids were duly invited, received, and opened by the County Capital Projects
Management Division on February 1, 2007. The bid results, which include the Base Bid plus all four
Additive Alternates, are as follows:
BIDDER Total Amount
Bruce Carone Grading & Paving, Inc. $121,413
Concord
Pacheco Brothers Gardening, Inc. $123,020
Hayward
Biland Construction Company $138,070
Rio Vista
Neary Landscape, Inc. $142,990
Cotati
A. J. Vasconi General Engineering $152,160
Concord
Hess Concrete Construction Co., Inc. $169,975
American Canyon
The bidder listed first above, Carone Paving, submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid,
which is $1,607 less than the next lowest bid. The Contract Compliance Officer has reported that
Carone Paving has documented an adequate good faith effort to comply with the requirements of the
County's Outreach program. The Director of General Services therefore recommends that the
contract, including the Base Bid and all four Additive Alternate items, be awarded to Carone Paving.
'The general prevailing rates of wages, which shall be the minimum rates paid on this project, are on
file with the Clerk of the Board, and copies are available to any party upon request.
