Contract No. 561
The bids according to Contract No. 561, Resurfacing of Fire Station No.3 and New Paving &
Fencing of Booster Plant No.3 were received and opened June 5, 2002, and the result are as follows:
Pacific Asphalt Services
$135,335.00
E.G.N. Construction Inc.
$164,694.00
Commercial Paving & Coating
$169,500.00
Fleming Environmental Inc.

$182,885.85
Pacific Construction Company
$188,709.00
E.A. Mendoza Contracting
$216,100.00
The bids have been reviewed and Pacific Asphalt Services was the apparent low bidder. City
staff attempted to verify the references provided by Pacific Asphalt Services in their bid package and
found the first reference, Diamond Construction from Apple Valley, did not recognize the firm and
the second reference, La Quinta Unified School District, Indio, was not listed in the telephone
directory. Although staff contacted Pacific Asphalt Services about this problem by telephone on June
6, 10, and 11, 2002, Pacific Asphalt Services declined to provide more information and references.
Moreover, on June 12, 2002, Pacific Asphalt Services requested, in writing, to withdraw their bid
because their subcontractor had provided a miscalculated price quote in bid Item No. 7,
"Construction of 8' high wrought iron fence" around the perimeter of Booster Plant No.3. For the
above reasons, City staff recommends the apparent low bidder, Pacific asphalt Services be
determined as a "Non Responsive Bidder" and not awarded the contract.
Honorable City Council -2- My17,2002
City staff subsequently investigated the apparent second low bidder and found that E.G.N.
Construction Inc. has been in the construction field for many years and has a long list of successfully
completed projects with excellent references. E.G.N. Construction Inc. also has sufficient bonding
resources. In order to ensure a well -constructed and expeditious project, City staff recommends this
contract be awarded to the responsible second low bidder, E.G.N. Construction Inc. in the amount of
their bid of $164,694.00.
