Resolution 2474 is outdated and needs to be revised. What does action accomplish? Establishes a new resolution with updated language. SUMMARY EXPLANATION/BACKGROUND:
Contractor: N/A Previous District Contract: N/A
Consultants: N/A Agency: N/A Number of bidders: N/A Low Bid N/A High Bid: N/A Appropriation Amount: N/A District Estimate: N/A
MBE/WBE Participation: N/A Plan Approval Date: N/A Type of Contract: N/A
Properties Affected: N/A Properties Benefiting: N/A
Designed by: N/A
FUNDING/COST SUMMARY: Budgeted: N/A Budget Year: N/A Amount: N/A Fund Name: N/A Additional Comments: Resolution 2474 contains language that in the event a low bidder for a District construction
project is rejected as non-responsive, and all other responsive bids do not conform to the guidelines in the resolution, the project will be rebid. It allows a contract to be awarded to the next lowest responsive bidder provided their bid does not exceed the bid variance thresholds as identified in the chart below. The resolution has dollar and percentage guidelines that are outdated. Staff wishes to revise the “bid variance” amounts and provide additional clarity regarding timing and
explanations to be provided to the Board of Trustees when a recommendation to award a construction contract to the next lowest responsive bidder is made. Staff also wishes to replace the reference to Disadvantage Business Enterprise Criteria
(DBE) to Minority or Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) and update the language referring to State Revolving Fund (SRF) criteria to state and federal funding criteria.
Project Cost (rejected bid) Bid Variance Resolution 2474 to be Repealed Replace with:
$0 - $250,000 not to exceed $30,000 $30,000
