AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR
CANNON ROAD WEST REACH 1 AND
APPROPRIATION OF ADDITIONAL FUNDS
PROJECT NO. 3184
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Carlsbad Municipal Water District Board of Directors: Adopt Resolution No. /0aci accepting bids and awarding Project No. 3184 for the construction of Cannon Road West Reach 1 water and recycled water transmission mains to Hazard Construction Company.
City of Carlsbad City Council: Adopt Resolution No. 78 - 3 5’6 accepting bids and awarding Project No. 3184 for the construction of Cannon Road West Reach 1 to Hazard Construction Company, and appropriating additional funds in the amount of $3,695,000.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The project involves the construction of Cannon Road West Reach 1 from Station 63+00 to Faraday Avenue. The construction includes water and reclaimed water transmission mains, sewer collector line, storm drain, curb, gutter, sidewalk, an enhanced and landscaped median, roadway surface improvements and a 454-foot long double bridge structure.
On June 9, 1998, the City Council approved the plans and specifications for Cannon Road West and directed the City Clerk to advertise for construction bids. On July 21, 1998 the water board authorized the inclusion of the water and reclaimed water transmission lines and the sewer collector line in the Cannon Road West construction project.
The bid opening was delayed from the original opening date of July 31, 1998 to August 21, 1998 as several questions regarding the bridge construction were received by the City. On August 21, 1998, the following three (3) bids were received:
1. Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc.
2. Hazard Construction Company
3. West Coast General Corporation
The Engineer’s Estimate for the project was $4,550,000.
$5,737,330.00
$5,855,027.40 $6,895,654.10
Staff has analyzed the bids and concluded that the low bidder, Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc., has material defects in their bid as follows:
The contract requires that 50% of the project shall be performed by contractor’s own forces. The bid instructions require the bidder to complete a “Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid Items” form in order for the City to make a determination as to whether this requirement has been met. The low bidder did not fill out the Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid Items form. The Amount of Item Subcontracted, Amount of Item by Contractor and the Overhead and Profit Amount were left blank on all the subcontractor forms, although the names of subcontractors were given. Therefore, the City has no way of determining what amount of the contract will be performed by Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc.
The Instructions to Bidders specifically placed bidders on notice that their bid could be rejected as non-responsive if the “Designation of Subcontractor” form was not completed. Brutoco attended the pre-bid meeting held on July 16, 1998 at which time the question was asked, “Does the Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid Item form need to be completely filled out?” The City responded affirmatively and memorialized the statement in Addendum No. 2 which contained meeting notes from the pre-bid meeting.

Hazard, the second lowest bidder, did not attach an explanation sheet to two subcontractor forms as required. The purpose of the explanation sheets is to provide additional information where the general contractor is performing some of the work of a bid item and the subcontractor is performing the remainder. This additional information may be helpful in determining the 50% requirement where the total amount of work subcontracted for the job is close to 50%. In the case of Hazard, even if 100% of the two items for which no explanation was given were assigned to the subcontractor, the total subcontracted amount of work would only be 43% versus 41% if the “Amounts of Items Subcontracted” column on the Designation of Subcontractor form is totalled. Therefore, the failure to attach the explanations is only a minor irregularity which gave the contractor no advantage.
Based on the above analysis, staff recommends that the City Council declare the bid from Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc., non-responsive and award the contract to the second low bidder, Hazard Construction Company, in the amount of $5,855,027.40. Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc., has requested an opportunity to protest the award recommendation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The Planning Director has determined that the requested action is consistent with prior CEQA review. The project was reviewed in the Cannon Road Reach 1 Environmental Impact Report. Significant environmental impacts identified by those CEQA documents were determined to be mitigable to levels of less than significant. Permits from the resource agencies have been received.

TABLE 3
The construction of this project is funded by several sources: TransNet Highway, Community Facilities District No. 1, Bridge and Thoroughfare District No. 3, water connection fees and sewer benefit area funds for South Agua Hedionda Interceptor Phase I. The timing of the construction of the project has been moved up several years form the date originally programmed in the CIP due to the increased development of the area.
Staff is recommending that City Council appropriate an additional $207,000 TransNet Highway Funds that the City has received for the project. In addition, staff is recommending that City Council authorize an additional appropriation from CFD #I ($588,000) and BTD #3 ($900,000). Staff is also recommending that $2,000,000 is loaned from the gas tax fund to BTD #3 and appropriated to the project. The loan will be repaid when funds are available from BTD #3 fees collected in the future.

Jones, Mahoney, Brayton & Soll
P. 0. Box 940
Claremont, California 91711
RE: CARLSBAD CONTRACT NO. 3184
Dear Mr. Mahoney:
I have received your letter of September 9, 1998 contesting staffs intention to
recommend award of the above referenced contract to Hazard Construction, and have
reviewed the bid documents with regard to your objections. I concur with staff that
Brutoco’s bid is non-responsive, in that Brutoco neglected to complete the “Designation
Of Subcontractor And Amount Of Subcontractor Bid Items” forms as instructed. The
instructions for completing those forms clearly state that “Failure to provide complete
and correct information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive.”
The City’s contract requires that the prime contractor perform at least 50% of the work
itself. The City must be able to make a determination as to whether or not the prime
contractor has complied with this requirement from the face of the bid documents as
submitted, without the necessity of resorting to outside information or investigation.
The City calculates the percentage of work to be subcontracted by adding the amounts
in the “Amount of Item Subcontracted” column and dividing this total by the total bid
amount for the combined schedules. The “Overhead & Profit Amount” column, which
should refer only to the prime contractor’s overhead and profit, is supplemental
information which the City can utilize in its determination that the prime contractor is
properly allocating the amount of work subcontracted.
The City’s response to question 2.A.2. addendum no. 6 was in error, since second tier
subs are not required to be listed on the subcontractor listing form, nor is the first tier
subcontractor overhead and profit required to be listed. But in any event, nowhere in
the City’s contract documents does it provide that the determination of the
subcontracted amount will be calculated by adding overhead and profit to the bid item
amount listed in column one. -
t
* I
<- .\c, .- < . d. 3
i
A review of the bid documents submitted by Brutoco, makes it impossible for the City to
determine what amount of the work is being subcontracted by Brutoco because of
Brutoco’s failure to complete the subcontractor listing form. A totaling of all bid item
amounts in the schedules which were designated to be subcontracted on the
subcontractor listing form equals 64.2% of the work. On the contrary, a determination
of the amount of subcontracted work can be made from Hazard’s completed
subcontractor designation form, which amounts to 40.7% of the work. Therefore your
contention that Brutoco is the victim of favoritism is unpersuasive.
The City is entitled to impose requirements above and beyond the .mandates of state
law. MCM Construction, inc. v. Citv and Countv of San Francisco, et al (September I,
1998) 98. Daily Journal DAR 9329. In MCM Construction. Inc., the court held that the
failure to state dollar amounts of work to be performed by seven of nine contractors
was, like the misstatement of the correct percentage of work to be done by
subcontractors in the Vallev Crest case, in the nature of a typographical or arithmetical
error from which the contractor could have sought relief under the statute. The
contractor therefore had an advantage not available to other bidders and the city was
without power to waive the deviation.
Likewise, Brutoco’s failure to state the dollar amounts of work to be performed by its
subcontractors could allow Brutoco to seek relief from its bid pursuant .to Public
Contracts Code section 5103, which the City would be obligated to grant. The City
cannot award a contract to a bidder who could withdraw its bid, thereby giving that
bidder an unfair advantage. On the other hand, these defects make Brutoco’s bid non-
responsive.
The matter is currently scheduled for the October I, 1998 City Council agenda and
Brutoco is entitled to the hearing requested in your letter of September 21, 1998 at that
time.
Vmly yours

.Re: CARLSBAD CONTRACT NO. 3184
My Client:.Brutoco Engineering & Construction
Dear Mr; Ball: : .’
This letter will confirm our telephone conversation of October 20, 1998. You have
advised me that the above-referenced contract is not on the agenda for the City Council
meeting tonight. I will contact you later in the week to ascertain whether the matter will
be on the agenda for the next City Council meeting on October 27, 1998.
In the meantime, I appreciated the opportunity to discuss Brutoco’s position with
you over the telephone. As I explained, Brutoco did not fully complete the forms entitled
“Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractor’s Bid Items” because Brutoco
was not sure how they were supposed to be filled out. Unfortunately, addendum No. 6 did
not clarify the issue. You noted the error in your letter to my partner, Paul M. Mahoney,
dated September 22, 1998.
The instruction on the form states, “Failure to provide complete and correct
information w result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive. ” As you know, the term
“may” is discretionary, while the term “shall” or “will” is mandatory. This gives the City
Council discretion whether or not it wants to reject the bid for not properly ffiling out the
form.
.
Ronald R. Ball
October 20, 1998
Page 2
On the other hand, the 50% requirement is mandatory. The specification states,
“Any bid that proposes performance of more than 50% of the work by other than the
contractor’s own organization will be rejected as non-responsive. n The City Council has
no discretion to reject any bid that violates the 50% specification.
Brutoco has submitted documentation to the City that clearly and unequivocally
establishes that Brutoco is going to do 62% of the work with its own forces, and
subcontract out 38% of the work to subcontractors.
I have reviewed the bid submitted by Hazard Construction. According to the bid,
Hazard is subcontracting out 53 % of the value of the work to subcontractors, not 40%.
Hazard’s bid must be rejected as non-responsive.
In the fina analysis, the facts have not changed. Brutoco was the low bidder, and
Brutoco will be doing 62% of the work with its own forces.
My client and I would like to make a presentation to you and to any staff you
designate to explain why we believe the contract should be awarded to Brutoco. The
presentation would not take more than half an hour, and we can clarify why we believe the
bid forms are ambiguous, and why the City Council should exercise discretion in this
matter.
Please let me know if you can arrange such a meeting.
Very truly yours,

- ALL RECElVED
October 13,1998
Attention: Mayor “Bud” Claude Lewis
Reference: .Cannon Road West (Reach 1)
Reference is made to Mr. Ronald Ball’s correspondence of October 6, 1998. I
am infuriated and bewildered regarding Mr. Ball’s proposed course of action in the
award of the above referenced project.
Mr. Ball has determined the City should spend an additional $117,877.00 on a
project that is well over budget by awarding to the second low bidder on the job.
Additionally Mr. Ball is willing to violate the Project Specifications, subject the project to
potential delay and sully the City’s reputation of promoting fair play in it’s public works
contracting.
Bids for the subject project were received by the City on August 21, 1998. Three
bids were received from the following Contractors for the amounts listed.
Brutoco $5,737,000.00
Hazard $5,855,027.00
West Coast General $6,895,654.00
In its post bid analysis of the proposals the City is attempting to disqualify
Brutoco’s bid because Brutoco did not fully complete “Designation of Subcontractor and
Amount of Subcontractor’s Bid Items” forms. Note that Brutoco did in accordance with
Section 4104 of the Government Code name all of it’s subcontractors and designate the
work to be subcontracted. What Brutoco did not do was to provide exact dollar amounts
for the following breakdown of each subcontracted bid item.
Amount of Item Subcontracted
Amount of Item by Contractor
Overhead and Profit
Subsequent to the bid date Brutoco has submitted exact subcontracted amounts and
shown clearly that Brutoco will subcontract out 38% of the bid and do 62% with it’s own
forces. Please note that Brutoco gained no competitive advantage by not filling out the
forms. The reason Brutoco did not fill out the forms was because the formswere
vague, ambiguous and subject to interpretatidn. Finally please note that the last
sentence of the first paragraph of the forms reads “Failure to provide complete
information mav result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive” (underlining added by
writer).
Pn DnV”r)Cl Cnhll-AMA PAIIEnDhllA Or)Q’Zl,i m iCinO\QCn-QE?C . EAYIC,,,b\Qr)‘)A,QQl . ,)(“EkKShlA Ae3A777n
The City at present plans to award the project to Hazard Construction at Hazards
bid price which is $117,877.00 above Brutoco’s. Hazard did fill out the “Designation of
Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractor’s Bid Item” forms at the time of bid. In
reviewing Hazard’s bid however a serious problem becomes apparent. Hazard is
subcontracting out $3,127,540.25 which is 53% of Hazard’s bid amount. The Project
Special Provisions state “Any bid that proposes performance of more than 50 percent of
the work by other than the Contractors own organization a be rejected as
nonresponsive.” (underlining added by writer). It would appear that the City should not
award to Hazard.
The City, in its public works construction, relies upon the competitive bid process
to receive fair prices for its projects. It is of utmost importance for any municipality to
maintain an air of fair competition and to award to the low bidder on all jobs except in the case of major irregularities- The City may waive minor irregularities in bids and
particularly in the case where an irregularity is minor and the City has culpability in
creating the irregularity through unclear instructions, the irregularity should be waived.
On the subject project the City received a total of only three bids, Brutoco, Hazard and
West Coast General. Generally this type of public works project would receive from five
to seven bids. Brutoco has not previously had the opportunity to work for the City but
Brutoco bid this project and Brutoco wants to construct it. If Brutoco and the contracting
community feels the City unfairly or unnecessarily disqualifies bids then certainly the tendency will be for the City to receive fewer bids. This cannot be to the City’s
advantage.
Brutoco has repeatedly requested a Public Hearing to review the proposed
disqualification of Brutoco’s bid for the subject project. We have been informed by Staff
that the Council meeting of October 20, 1998 will serve as the Public Hearing. Myself
and other Brutoco representatives will be present and prepared to review the applicable specifications and to discuss Staffs’ recommendation to disqualify Brutoco’s bid and
spend an additional $117,877.00 in order to award to the second bidder. I request your
close attention and review.

RE: CARLSBAD CONTRACT NO. 3184
Dear Mr. Mahoney:
I have reviewed your letter of October 1, 1998 concerning the above referenced
contract award. This item is currently scheduled for the City Council agenda on
October 20,1998.
With regard to the substance of your protest, your reliance on section 2-3 of the
Standard Specifications is unpersuasive, since the City clearly states in the instructions
for “Designation Of Subcontractor And Amount Of Subcontractor’s Bid Items” form that
“The Bidder MUST complete each information field on this form” which “must be
submitted as part of the bidders sealed bid. Failure to provide complete and correct
information may result in rejection of the bid as nonresponsive.”
The necessity for completing the subcontractor designation form prior to submitting the
bid was reiterated and reinforced in Addendum No. 2 in response to a bidder question.
The fact that SSPWB section 2-3 requires the contractor to submit a statement showing
the work to be subcontracted to the Engineer before the work of any subcontractor is
started, does not negate the requirement for providing subcontractor information in the
bid package. The recent decision in MCM Construction, Inc. v. Citv and Countv of San
Francisco, (September I, 1998) 98 DAR 9329 makes it clear that the City is entitled to
impose requirements above and beyond the mandates of state law.
Moreover, contrary to the assertion in your October 1 letter, the City is not interpreting
the designation of subcontractor form with regard to “Overhead & Profit” to disqualify
bidders. It is Brutoco, who is seeking to disqualify hazard Construction’s bid by adding
the amounts listed in the Overhead & Profit column to the subcontracted items of work.
a
I do not understand the significance of your reliance on SSPWC section Z-3.1 in taking
issue with the City’s methodology for determining what percentage of the work is being
completed by the prime contractor. Nowhere in the standard specifications does it
provide that the Contract Unit Price shall be defined as the amount of the item
subcontracted plus the subcontractor’s overhead and profit. The City does not admit,
as you assert, that its method of determining the subcontractor percentage is unclear,
but only that an error was made in responding to a question posed by a contractor at
the prebid conference. However, that error is inconsequential in that it did not bear on
the methodology for calculating the percentages of work to be performed by the sub
and prime contractors.
I am unclear as to the point you are raising with regard to the Standard Specifications
section 2-3.1. However, if you will elaborate I will give your analysis further
consideration.
Even though the City obviously desires to save money, as stated in my previous letter,
the City cannot award the contract to Brutoco due to its total failure to complete the bid
forms as instructed.

Re: Carlsbad Contract No. 3 184
Contractor Brutoco Engineering & Construction, Inc.
Dear Mr. Ball:
On September 9, 1998, I wrote you concerning my representation of Brutoco
Engineering & Construction, Inc. with regard to the above-mentioned contract. I
requested confirmation that the City Council award hearing had been continued from
September 22, 1998 to October 6, 1998, as Brutoco had been advised by the City’s
representatives. I have not received a response to my letter.
Under California law, including the appropriate Government Code Sections
regarding bids and subcontractors, and Carlsbad law, including its municipal code, Brutoco
is entitled to a hearing regarding its bid and the City’s plan to reject it prior to the award
hearing in front of the Carlsbad City Council.
Demand is hereby made that Brutoco be awarded such a hearing forthwith. The
failure of the City of Carlsbad to afford Brutoco such a hearing violates Brutoco’s rights
under the law. If it is the City’s position that there is no other formal hearing that must
Mr. Ronald Ball

be granted to Brutoco other than the City Council hearing when the contract is scheduled
to be awarded, you should advise me of that fact immediately and also cite me the proper
authorities to support your position.

Re: Carlsbad Contract No. 3 184
Dear Mr. Ball:
This letter is in response to your letter to me of September 22, 1998. Your office
had advised my office upon our request that the hearing on the award of Carlsbad Contract
No. 3 184 is either going to take place on October 13 or October 20, 1998. Please let me
know the correct date as soon as possible.
In terms of the substance of your letter, it seems to me that several of tbe issues that
you feel are important are not supported by the contract documents. Also, it appears that
you are relying upon what your specification writer meant to say as opposed to what is
actually written in the specifications.
You point out that the City must be able to make a determination “solely by
reviewing the bid documents” as to whether or not the contractor is doing 50% of the
contract work with its own forces. This is not supported by the specifications. The
Standard Specifications state in Section 2-3, Subcontracts,
Mr. Ronald Ball
City Attorney
October 1, 1998
Page 2
“Before the work of any Subcontractor is started the
Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval a written
statement showing the work to be subcontracted giving the
name and business of each Subcontractor and description and
value of each portion of work to be so subcontracted. n
Clearly, post bid submission of subcontracting information to demonstrate that the
Contractor is doing 50% of the work is allowed by the specification. Such post bid
submission does not lead to any competitive advantage. In fact, Caltrans, the County of
San Diego, the Orange County Environmental Management Agency and Los Angeles
County all request and receive such subcontracting information after the bid. On
September 3, 1998, Brutoco submitted its subcontracting plan to the City of Carlsbad,
which showed that its subcontractor percentage was 38 % .
Also, the “Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid Items”
form in the bid documents is unclear and the City admits it wrongly answered pre-bid
questions by Brutoco regarding the form. The form has three columns: (1) Amount of
Item Subcontracted; (2) Amount of Item by Contractor; and (3) Overhead and Profit
Amount.”
Regarding the “Overhead and Profit Amount” column, the most straight forward
interpretation of the question of “What overhead and profit should be included” would be
all overhead and profit. The City’s response to Brutoco’s pre-bid question backs up this
interpretation. The way you and the City are now interpreting the form is vague and
ambiguous and should not be used by the City to disqualify bidders.
In its post bid analysis of the bids, the City determined the percentage of work
Hazard Company was proposing to do with its own forces by deducting from Hazard’s
total bid the total of the “Amount of Item Subcontracted” column of Hazard’s bid. The
amount that the City determined to be the subcontracted amount was the total of the
subcontractors’ costs and excluded the subcontractors’ overhead and orofits and the amount
of overhead and urofit added bv the Contractor. The City’s methodology is not only
Mr. Ronald Ball
City Attorney
October 1, 1998
Page 3
illogical, subjective, vague and discriminatory, it is in direct conflict with the clearly
written Standard Specifications which stated in Section 2-3.1, Subcontracts,
“Where the entire item is subcontracted, the value of work
subcontracted will be based on the Contract Unit Price. When
a portion of an item is subcontracted, the value of work
subcontracted will be based on the estimated percentage of the
Contract Unit Price. -This will determined from information
submitted by the Contractor and subject to approval by the
Engineer. n
Clearly, since the Special Provisions are unclear as to how the subcontracting
percentage should be determined (which the City admits), the Standard Specifications have
to be used.
If, in the analysis of Hazard’s bid, the applicable overheads and profits are added
to the subcontractor’s costs, then Hazard’s total amount of work subcontracted is
$3,127,540.25 or 53% of Hazard’s total bid of $5,855,027.40. The City of Carlsbad is
therefore violating its own specification of requiring the prime contractor to do 50% of the
work by awarding to Hazard.
You indicated in your letter that the only hearing that Brutoco would get would be
in front of the City Council. I would urge you, in view of the information contained in
this letter and our strong legal position, to reconsider that position and set up a meeting
between you, me and representatives of Brutoco and your staff to discuss this further. I
cannot, for the life of me, see why the City of Carlsbad wants to spend $117,000 more on
a project and also incur the expense and precedent that will be established of an adverse
court ruling.
Clearly, the City has ample evidence to award this contract to Brutoco and it is only
by straining its interpretation of the specifications and showing favoritism to Hazard
Construction that this job is about to be awarded to Hazard Construction. Brutoco is not
going to let that happen and wants to do this project. Brutoco spent considerable time and

effort bidding this job and it is not interested in being shaken around by an unfair bid
process. Hopefully, you see the benefit of a meeting. Your prompt response it requested.

Re: Carlsbad Contract No. 3184
Dear Mr. Ball:
This letter is to inform you of my representation of Brutoco Engineering and
Construction, Inc. In August of 1998, Brutoco bid Contract No. 3184 and was the low
bidder. Subsequently, Brutoco received a letter from Sherri Howard (a copy of which is
enclosed) indicating that Brutoco’s bid had not complied with the plans and specifications
because the City allegedly could not determine whether Brutoco’s subcontractors were
doing less than 50% of the work. The letter further stated that the City planned on
awarding the contract to Hazard Construction, the No. 2 bidder.
Enclosed is Brutoco’s breakdown showing that, in fact, its subcontractors are doing
much less than 50% of the work. An analysis of Hazard Construction’s bid shows that its
subcontractors are doing at least 53 % of the work. This is also enclosed.
In the preparation of its bid, Brutoco found the “Designation of Subcontractor and
Amount of Subcontractor’s Bid Items” forms and the “Guide for Completing the
Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid,” pages 35 through 37,
Mr. Ronald Ball
City Attorney
September 9, 1998
Page 2
unclear and subject to interpretation. Rather than guess about how the forms should be
filled out and be wrong, Brutoco submitted the information requested by Section 4104 of
the Government Code. With respect to subcontractors Brutoco intended to use, whose
subcontracts would be greater than one half of one percent of the bid amount, Brutoco
listed the Subcontractor’s name, the location of their place of business and the portion of
work Brutoco intended to subcontract.
SSPWC Section 2-3, Subcontracts states:
“Before the work of any Subcontractor is started, the
Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval a written
statement showing the work to be subcontracted, giving the
name and business of each Subcontractor and description and
value of each portion of work to be so subcontracted. n
The specifications do not clearly state that the owner will attempt to utilize the
“Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid Items” forms to 1,
calculate the percentage of work subcontracted, as a prerequisite for award. At the time i
of the bid, Brutoco fully intended to and did comply with the provision SSPWC Section
2-3 and Government Code Section 4104.
On September 3, 1998, Brutoco submitted documentation to the City fully detailing
Brutoco’s subcontracting plan. The documentation clearly shows the total amount of
subcontracted work to be $2,171,033.00 or 38% of Brutoco’s total bid amount of
$5,737,330.
The City; in its post bid analysis of the amount of work subcontracted by the
bidders apparently failed to follow the specifications in its calculation of the percentage of
work subcontracted.
Reference is made to the listing forms which required three dollar amounts to be
listed:
1. Amount of Item by Subcontractor.
Mr. Ronald Ball
City Attorney
September 9, 1998
Page 3
2. Amount of Item by Contractor.
3. Overhead and Profit Amount.
It would seem that the first two columns provide for costs and the third column
provides for overhead and profit amount, including both subcontractor and contractor.
City Addendum No. 6 which included answers to bidders questions included
questions asked by Brad Austin of Brutoco dated August 6, 1998. Mr. Austin asked:
“A. What is considered the Overhead and Profit Amount?
1.
2.
Prime Contractors Overhead & Profit?
Prime Contractor’s plus first tier Subcontractor’s
Profit & Overhead when listing a lower tier subcontractor?”
The City’s response to both questions was yes.
Apparently, the Overhead and Profit column is for all overhead and profit of the
prime contractor and subcontractor.
A review of Section 2-3.1, Subcontracts, of the SSPWC, shows the following
specification regarding evaluation of the “Subcontract Amount”
“Where the entire item is subcontracted, the value of the work
subcontracted will be based on the Contract Unit Price. When
a portion of an item is subcontracted, the value of work
subcontracted will be based on the estimated percentage of the
Contract Unit Price. This will be determined from
information submitted by the Contractor, and subject to
approval by the Engineer.”
This specification, which should be considered as complementary to the Special
Provisions, pages 35 through 37, clearly states that in determining the Subcontract
Mr. Ronald Ball
City Attorney
September 9, 1998
Page 4
Percentage, the “value” of the work to be considered is the Bid amount or portion thereof
including both costs as well as profits and overheads.
This is important because in its analysis of Hazard Construction’s subcontracted
amount, the City totaled the Amount of Item by Subcontractor column and came up with
a total of $2,383,065.05 which is less than 50% of Hazard’s total bid of $5,855,027.40.
However, the City, in its review of Hazard Construction’s subcontracted amount, must, :. I .. ..
consider both the Amount of Item Subcontracted as well as the Overhead and Profit I :‘ ( I c
’ Column per the specifications. When that is done, the subcontracted amount comes to i
$3,127,540.25 which is 53% of Hazards total bid of $5,855,027.40. Thus, if the City
follows its snecifications as written, Hazard Construction is subcontracting out in excess
of 50% of the work.
In short, Brutoco has fully complied with the project plans and specifications. If
the City’s position is that Brutoco’s bid was not clear in not designating how much of its
work was to be subcontracted, the same is also true with regard to Hazard.
Although municipalities can, under some circumstances, waive irregularities in the
bid, they cannot waive the same irregularity on the part of the Number 2 bidder while
disqualifying the lowest responsible bidder because of the same alleged irregularity. That
would be discrimination not accepted under the law.
Plain and simple, Brutoco is $117,000 lower on this project and it would be
extremely unfair for a contractor such as Brutoco, who has been in business for over 30
years and has built a number of big projects, to have all of its time and effort in putting
this bid together (which incidently would save the City money) wasted by the City in
basically favoring Hazard over Brutoco when allegedly the same deficiency appeared in
both bids.

The City of Carkbad has completed the review and analysis of the bids for the above project.
Due to the following errors and omissions in your bid, staff will recommend that City Council find
the bid submitted by Brutoco Engineering and Construction, Inc. as non-responsive. We will
recommend the award of the contract to the second low bidder, Hazard Construction Company.
The Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of Subcontractors Bid hems forms are not
completed. The City can not determine the amount of work subcontracted to determine
whether or not it is less than 50%. The Amount of Item Subcontracted, Amount of Item by
Contractor and the Overhead and Profit Amount have been left blank on all subcontractors
forms. In addition, the address, phone number and California State Contractors License
Number and designation have been left blank on the forms.
This project will be submitted to the City Council for action at their meeting on September 15,
1998 beginning at 6:00 p.m. You may attend this meeting and request to speak to the City
Council by filling out a “Request to Speak” form available at the meeting.

Contract No. 3184
I am in receipt of your correspondence dated August 25, 1998. I strongly protest
your intention to find Brutoco’s bid proposal non-responsive and I request the you
reconsider your position on this issue.
Regarding the specification provision that the Contractor perform with its own
organization contract work amounting to at least fifty percent of the contract price,
Brutoco fully intends to comply with this provision. Section 2-3.1 of the Standard
Specifications states “Before the work of any Subcontractor is started, the Contractor
shall submit to the Engineer for approval a written statement showing the work to be
subcontracted giving the name and business of each Subcontractor and description
and value of each portion of the work to be so subcontracted”. Brutoco will submit the
required information in accordance with this provision. Your attention is directed to the
Special Provisions, particularly the “Designation of Subcontractor and Amount of
Subcontractor’s Bid Items” form. Nowhere in, the. Specifications does it state that the
City will attempt to determine the percentage of work the Contractor plans to
subcontract out from these forms. The determination of the percentage of work is
therefore determined per the provisions of said Section 2-3.1 of the Standard
Specifications. It is frankly confusing to myself and others how the City could determine
a Contractor’s subcontracting percentage from the “Designation of Subcontractor and
Amount of Subcontractor Bid Item” form. The format of the form is of itself confusing
and subject to interpretation as to how a bidder should complete it.
Brutoco’s bid fully complies with Section 4104, Identification of Subcontractors,
of the Public Contract Code.
The proposal of Brutoco Engineering & Construction Inc. represents a net
$117,697.40 savings over the second bidder. While this may be only a small

percentage of the overall cost it is still a significant sum of City money which should not
be given away.
In order to avoid costly delays and litigation in the award of this project I request
you re-examine Brutoco’s proposal giving at least equal credence to “what is included”
as to “what is omitted”. It is proper to award to the low bidder.
.
I request a meeting with personnel involved as soon as possible. Call myself so
we may schedule an appointment.

RE: CARLSBAD CONTRACT NO. 3184
Dear Mr. Mahoney:
I have received your letter of September 9, 1998 contesting staffs intention to
recommend award of the above referenced contract to Hazard Construction, and have
reviewed the bid documents with regard to your objections. I concur with staff that
Brutoco’s bid is non-responsive, in that Brutoco neglected to complete the “Designation
Of Subcontractor And Amount Of Subcontractor Bid Items” forms as instructed. The
instructions for completing those forms clearly state that “Failure to provide complete
and correct information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive.”
The City’s contract requires that the prime contractor perform at least 50% of the work
itself. The City must be able to make a determination as to whether or not the prime
contractor has complied with this requirement from the face of the bid documents as
submitted, without the necessity of resorting to outside information or investigation.
The City calculates the percentage of work to be subcontracted by adding the amounts
in the “Amount of Item Subcontracted” column and dividing this total by the total bid
amount for the combined schedules. The “Overhead & Profit Amount” column, which
should refer only to the prime contractor’s overhead and profit, is supplemental
information which the City can utilize in its determination that the prime contractor is
properly allocating the amount of work subcontracted.
The City’s response to question 2.A.2. addendum no. 6 was in error, since second tier
subs are not required to be listed on the subcontractor listing form, nor is the first tier
subcontractor overhead and profit required to be listed. But in any event, nowhere in
the City’s contract documents does it provide that the determination of the
subcontracted amount will be calculated by adding overhead and profit to the bid item
amount listed in column one.
A review of the bid documents submitted by Brutoco, makes it impossible for the City to
determine what amount of the work is being subcontracted by Brutoco because of
Brutoco’s failure to complete the subcontractor listing form. A totaling of all bid item
amounts in the schedules which were designated to be subcontracted on the
subcontractor listing form equals 64.2% of the work. On the contrary, a determination
of the amount of subcontracted work can be made from Hazard’s completed
subcontractor designation form, which amounts to 40.7% of the work. Therefore your
contention that Brutoco is the victim of favoritism is unpersuasive.
The City is entitled to impose requirements above and beyond the mandates of state
law. MCM Construction, Inc. v. Citv and Countv of San Francisco. et al (September I,
1998) 98 Daily Journal DAR 9329. In MCM Construction. Inc., the court held that the
failure to state dollar amounts of work to be performed by seven of nine contractors
was, like the misstatement of the correct percentage of work to be done by
subcontractors in the Vallev Crest case, in the nature of a typographical or arithmetical
error from which the contractor could have sought relief under the statute. The
contractor therefore had an advantage not available to other bidders and the city was
without power to waive the deviation.
Likewise, Brutoco’s failure to state the dollar amounts of work to be performed by its
subcontractors could allow Brutoco to seek relief from its bid pursuant to Public
Contracts Code section 5103, which the City would be obligated to grant. The City
cannot award a contract to a bidder who could withdraw its bid, thereby giving that
bidder an unfair advantage. On the other hand, these defects make Brutoco’s bid non-
responsive.
The matter is currently scheduled for the October I, 1998 City Council agenda and
Brutoco is entitled to the hearing requested in your letter of September 21, 1998 at that
time.
vmly yours

RE: CARLSBAD CONTRACT NO. 3184
Dear Mr. Mahoney:
I have received your letter of September 9, 1998 contesting staffs. intention to
recommend award of the above referenced contract to Hazard Construction, and have
reviewed the bid documents with regard to your objections. I concur with staff that
Brutoco’s bid is non-responsive, in that Brutoco neglected to complete the “Designation
Of Subcontractor And Amount Of Subcontractor Bid Items” forms as instructed. The
instructions for completing those forms clearly state that “Failure to provide complete
and correct information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive.”
The City’s contract requires that the prime contractor perform at least 50% of the work
itself. The City must be able to make a determination as to whether or not the prime
contractor has complied with this requirement from the face of the bid documents as
submitted, without the necessity of resorting to outside information or investigation.
The City calculates the percentage of work to be subcontracted by adding the amounts
in the “Amount of Item Subcontracted” column and dividing this total by the total bid
amount for the combined schedules. The “Overhead & Profit Amount” column, which
should refer only to the prime contractor’s overhead and profit, is supplemental
information which the City can utilize in its determination that the prime contractor is
properly allocating the amount of work subcontracted.
The City’s response to question 2.A.2. addendum no. 6 was in error, since second tier
subs are not required to be listed on the subcontractor listing form, nor is the first tier
subcontractor overhead and profit required to be listed. But in any event, nowhere in
the City’s contract documents does it provide that the determination of the
subcontracted amount will be calculated by adding overhead and profit to the bid item
amount listed in column one.
c
,t’ <.. .,*. .
I,
-3 -2
A review of the bid documents submitted by Brutoco, makes it impossible for the City to
determine what amount of the work is being subcontracted by Brutoco because of
Brutoco’s failure to complete the subcontractor listing form. A totaling of all bid item
amounts in the schedules which were designated to be subcontracted on the
subcontractor listing form equals 64.2% of the work. On the contrary, a determination
of the amount of subcontracted work can be made from Hazard‘s completed
subcontractor designation form, which amounts to 40.7% of the work. Therefore your
contention that Brutoco is the victim of favoritism is unpersuasive.
The City is entitled to impose requirements above and beyond the .mandates of state
law. MCM Construction. Inc. v. Citv and Countv of San Francisco, et al (September ‘l,
1998) 98. Daily Journal DAR 9329. In MCM Construction, Inc., the court held that the
failure to state dollar amounts of work to be performed by seven of nine contractors
was, like the misstatement of the correct percentage of work to be done by
subcontractors in the Vallev Crest case, in the nature of a typographical or arithmetical
error from which the contractor could. have sought relief under the statute. The
contractor therefore had an advantage not available to other bidders and the city was
without power to waive the deviation.
Likewise, Brutoco’s failure to state the dollar amounts of work to be performed by its
subcontractors could allow Brutoco to seek relief from its bid pursuant .to Public
Contracts Code section 5103, which the City would be obligated to grant. The City
cannot award a contract to a bidder who could withdraw its bid, thereby giving that
bidder an unfair advantage. On the other hand, these defects make Brutoco’s bid non-
responsive.
The matter is currently scheduled for the October 1, 1998 City Council agenda and
Brutoco is entitled to the hearing requested in your letter of September 21, 1998 at that
time.
Vmly yours
