TELEPHONE (619) 438-5561 QCitp of March 1, 1985 Ed Givens, Project Manager Tri-City Construction P. 0. Box'1434 Vista, CA 92083 Dear Mr. Givens: Your letter to the City Manager dated February 25, 1985 has been referred to me for an answer. The bid of SI-Mac Construction Conpany has been carefully reviewed by members of the city staff. Their contractor's license is valid, the bidder's bond is in order and the references have Seen checked by city staff and are acceptable. As a general contractor, SI-Mac is qualified to perform all phases of the renovation project at Chase Field and is the lowest responsible bidder for this contract. It was on this basis the Council awarded the contract to SI-Mac Construction Company on February 19, 1985. Your reasons for protesting in the bid award are not valid for the following reasons: Point 1 - SI-Mac is a general contractor and is qualified to do the roofing. It is not necessary for them to list a sub- contractor for this contract. Points, 2, 3, and 4 are related to the construction phase of the contract and cannot be used as a basis for disqualifying the lowest responsible bidder. SI-Mac will be required to take out a building permit and a city building inspector will be inspecting the project during various phases of the con- struction. If at any time SI-Mac does not conform to the contract, appropriate action will be taken. Based on the information in your letter, the reasons for protest are not valid and the action taken of February 19, 1985, was appropriate. In city will be the interpreter of the intent by the City Counc all instances, th of the contract mil .e documents, and the city's decision relevant to the intent is final. We find SI-Mac's bid to be in order and the contract will be executed. c March 1, 1985 Ed Givens Page 2 A hearing before the City Council would serve no useful purpose. The bidding and award of contract was done in accordance with state and local law and there is no basis for the Council to rescind the bid award. Thank you for calling this matter to my attention and I hope you will submit bids for future city work.
