Associate Engineer, at 650/522-7314, or in writing at the above address.
3. The estimated construction cost of this project is $130,000.00. This estimate is not based
on a "contractor's cost take off' of the project, but is derived from an averaging of costs
for work on similar projects in the area of which the City is aware. This figure is given to
indicate the relative order of magnitude of this project and is not intended to influence or
affect in any way the amount bid for this project.
4. All bids shall be accompanied by a bid bond, cashier's check, or certified check made
payable to the City of San Mateo in an amount not less than ten percent (10%) of the
aggregate amount of the bid.
5. Contractor is notified that he shall comply with the requirements for Non -Discrimination
as set forth in Special Provisions SP -7-2.3 through SP -7-2.3.3.
6. Addenda issued during the time of bidding shall become a part of the documents
furnished bidders for the preparation of bids, shall be covered in the bids, and shall be
made a part of the Contract. Each bid shall include specific acknowledgement in the
space provided of receipt of all Addenda issued during the bidding period. Failure to so
acknowledge may result in the bid being rejected as not responsive. Failure of any bidder
to receive such Addenda shall not be grounds for non-compliance with the terms of the
instructions. It is the responsibility of the contractor to contact the City to determine the
existence of any and all addenda.
7. The time of completion for this contract shall be thirty (30) working days, beginning
from the date specified in the Notice to Proceed.

subject to the provisions of the City of San Mateo Charter, which may supersede certain
provisions of the Public Contract Code and other provisions of state law.
9. In general, the prevailing wage scale, as determined by the Director of Industrial
Relations of the State of California, in force on the day this bid was announced, will be
the minimum paid to all craftsmen and laborers working on this project. In some cases,
prevailing wage determinations have either a single asterisk (*) or double asterisks (**)
after the expiration date in effect on the date of advertisement for bids.
In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the
expiration date which are in effect on the date of advertisement for bids, such
determinations remain in effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage determinations
which have double asterisks (**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly
wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay rates, and employer payments to be paid for work
performed after this date have been predetermined. If work is extended past this date, the
new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in contracts the Contractor enters into.
Pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing wage rates in the
county, or counties, in which the work is to be done have been determined by the
Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations. The wages as set forth in
the General Prevailing Wage Rates for this project will be posted at the job site. It is
understood that it is the responsibility of the bidder to determine the correct scale. The
City will keep a copy of the wage scale in the City Clerk's office for the convenience of
bidders. The State Prevailing Wage Rates may also be obtained from the California
Department of Industrial Relations internet web site at http://www.dir.ca.gov. Any errors
or defects in the materials in the City Clerk's office will not excuse a bidder's failure to
comply with the actual scale then in force.
10. Said sealed proposals shall be delivered to the City Clerk, City Hall, 330 West 20th
Avenue, San Mateo, California 94403, at or before 2:00 p.m., September 16, 2008 and
they shall be opened and read by a City Representative at said date and time at a public
meeting called by him.
11. Said City Representative shall report the results of the bidding to the City Council at a
later date, at which time the City Council may award the contract to the lowest
responsible bidder as so reported; or as City's interest may dictate. The City Council may
exercise its right to modify the award or to reject any or all bids. Any protests to award
of contract shall follow the procedures outlined in City Council Resolution No. 61, dated
June 7, 2004.
12. To ensure performance, City reserves the right to retain ten percent (10%) of the contract
price for 35 days after it records the Notice of Completion. However, pursuant to the
Public Contracts Code Section 22300, Contractor may substitute securities for said ten
percent (10%) retention or request that City make payments of retentions earned directly
to an escrow agent at Contractor's expense. The provisions of the Public Contracts Code
Section 22300 are hereby expressly made a part of the contract.

(Entire proposal to be submitted as sealed bid.)
2008 CITYWIDE STRIPING PROJECT -PHASE III
CITY PROJECT NO. 467004-46000-7032
TO THE HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA
DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS:
FOR THE TOTAL SUM OF (use figures only) computed from
the unit and/or lump sum prices shown on the attached schedule of bid items, the undersigned
hereby proposes and agrees that if this proposal is accepted he will contract with the City of
San Mateo, California, to furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment, transportation, and all
incidental work and services required to complete all items of work shown in the contract
documents. All work shall conform tothe lines, grades, and dimensions shown on said drawings
and shall be done in accordance with this Contract Book and the APWA-AGC Standard
Specifications for Public Works Construction, 2006 Edition.
The work for which this proposal is submitted is for construction in conformance with the
special provisions (including the payment of not less than the State general prevailing wage
rates) the project plans described below, including the addenda thereto, the contract annexed
hereto, and also in conformance with the APWA-AGC Standard Specifications for Public Works

This proposal is also subject to the t.uus and conditions of the attached LIST OF
SUBCONTRACTORS and BIDDER'S STATEMENT.
ADDENDA — This proposal is submitted with respect to the changes to the contract included in
the addenda number/s
By my signature on this proposal I certify, under penalty of perjury under the laws of State of
California and United States of America, that the Non Collusion Affidavit required by Title 23

The work shall be paid for at the unit and/or lump sum prices shown on the attached
SCHEDULE OF BID ITEMS.

Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the
total of all items,
The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each
lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that
purpose. In the case of unit basis items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the
product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item.
In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price
shall prevail, except as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the
amount as the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item
shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be
the unit price;
(b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor
of ten, one hundred, etc., or one -tenth, or one -hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be
resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentagewise
the unit price or item total in the City of San Mateo's Final Estimate of cost.
If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be
deemed irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is
omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear,
readable total bid is provided.
Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in
establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will
be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols
also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be
expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on lump sum items shall be item totals
only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total, the items
total shall prevail.
The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to
cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation
not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the City of San Mateo, and that
discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by the City of San Mateo to best protect the public
interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The decision of the City of San Mateo
respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid, shall be final.
If this proposal shall be accepted and the undersigned shall fail to enter into the contract and furnish the
2 bonds in the sums required by the State Contract Act; with surety satisfactory to the City Of San Mateo,
within 8 days, not including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after the bidder has received notice
from the City of San Mateo that the contract has been awarded, the City of San Mateo may, at its option,
determine that the bidder has abandoned the contract, and thereupon this proposal and the acceptance
thereof shall be null and void and the forfeiture of the security accompanying this proposal shall operate
and the same shall be the property of the City of San Mateo.
By my signature on this proposal, as bidder, declares that the only persons or parties interested in this
proposal as principals are those named herein; that this proposal is made without collusion with any other
person, firm, or corporation; that he has carefully examined the location of the proposed work, the
annexed proposed form of contract, and the plans therein referred to; and he proposes, and agrees if this
proposal is accepted, that he will contract with the City of San Mateo, in the form of the copy of the
contract annexed hereto, to provide all necessary machinery, tools, apparatus and other means of

On behalf of the bidder, the undersigned certifies that the Prevailing Wage Scale, as determined
by the Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California, in force on the day this bid was

In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the expiration
date which are in effect on the date of advertisement for bids, such determinations remain in
effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage determinations which have double asterisks
(**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay

predetermined. If work is extended past this date, the new rate must be paid and should be
incorporated in contracts the Contractor enters into.
A copy of the correct determination will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the
responsibility of the bidder to determine the correct scale. The City will keep a copy of the wage
scale in the City Clerk's office for the convenience of bidders. Any errors or defects in the

3. Be evidenced, prior to commencement of services, by properly executed policy
endorsements in addition to a certificate of insurance.
a. In addition to requiring that you provide an insurance certificate showing
the levels and types of coverage required for your project or contract, the
City of San Mateo also requires you to provide the City with a copy of the
actual endorsements to the commercial general, automobile, and any
excess liability insurance policies that show that the City of San Mateo, its
boards, commissions, officers, agents, and employees have been named as
additional insureds by the insurers.
These endorsements are required because California Insurance Code § 384
expressly provides that an insurance certificate is not proof of what the
underlying insurance policy actually contains. If you look at an insurance
certificate, you will notice that the certificate actually says the same thing.
Therefore, a certificate has minimal legal value and the City cannot be
reasonably certain that it is covered under the policies shown on the
certificate without endorsements.

An endorsement is a piece of paper that modifies the terms of the
underlying policy and is issued by the insurance company itself, rather
than a broker.
A copy of a sample endorsement for commercial general liability is on the
following page for your reference.
4. No changes in insurance may be made without the written approval of the City
Attorney's office.
5. NOTICE OF CANCELLATION: The City requires 30 days written notice of
cancellation. Additionally, the notice statement on the certificate should not include
the wording "endeavor to" or "But failure to mail such notice shall impose no
obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representatives".
