SUMMARY
On November 29, 2022, five (5) bids were received for the Municipal Parking Lot No. 8 (Muni Lot 8) Improvement Project. Silicon Valley Paving, Inc., of San Jose, submitted the low bid in the amount of $466,950.75, which is 20.9% lower than the Engineer’s Estimate of $590,000. Tri Valley Excavating Co, Inc., of Sunol, submitted the second lowest bid in the corrected amount of $469,787.25, which is 20.4% lower than the Engineer’s Estimate. Kerex Engineering, Inc., of Martinez, submitted the third bid in the amount of $509,950, which is 13.6% lower than the Engineer’s Estimate.
The project is categorically exempt from environmental review under Section 15301(c) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines for the operation, repair, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing facilities.
On November 15, 2016 , Council passed a resolution authorizing a Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) with the Alameda County Building Trades Council (BTC), which applies to City projects with construction costs of $1,000,000 or more. Because the construction cost estimate for this Project is less than $1,000,000, the CWA agreement does not apply.
