Staffreport
COUNCIL PRIORITY
* Public Safety
* Infrastructure
SUMMARY
This project provides for construction of sanitary sewer line repairs at various locations within the San Leandro sewer service area. Four bids were received for construction. None of the bidders have an office in San Leandro that would qualify them as a local business per the Local Inclusion Policy Ordinance. None of the bidders met the Local Business Participation Goal by subcontracting with San Leandro businesses for 25% of the contract value, and none of the bidders provided documentation that demonstrated completion of the required good faith efforts to meet the local business participation goal.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends rejecting all bids from the February 28, 2023 bid opening for the subject project, and rebidding the project at a later date.
BACKGROUND
City staff routinely inspects the condition of the sanitary sewer main lines and manholes in the City's service area. The sanitary sewer point repair project is based upon inspections that have identified locations of defects or deteriorated facilities to the point that repairs are needed or may be needed soon. Locations that require a significant amount of repetitive maintenance by Public Works, if within the proximity of a repair project, are also included in the scope of work.
This project will repair and replace defective sanitary sewer main lines, rehabilitate, upgrade, and reconstruct deteriorated manholes, and replace undersized access structures with full-sized standard manholes. These improvements, when completed, will increase the system's reliability, reduce the frequency of required maintenance, improve the efficiency of maintenance operations, and reduce the risk of sewage overflows. Existing improvements disturbed by the construction will be restored at the end of the Project.
