Public Services Director Lars Ewing’s report to the board said the county received and opened two bids for the project on Aug. 28.
Marz Engineering of Ukiah was the low bidder. The second bidder was Steelhead Constructors JV of Redding, which submitted a bid for $1,097,777.
“In consideration of only two bids being received, as well as the significant discrepancy between Marz Engineering’s bid and that of the next lowest bidder, staff communicated with Marz Engineering to ensure that their bid factored in the payment of prevailing wage and compliance with other labor laws as mandated by California Labor Code section 2810,” Ewing wrote. “Furthermore, Marz Engineering included with their bid submittal the mandatory Prevailing Wage and Related Labor Requirements Certification document, further establishing Marz Engineering’s acknowledgment to pay prevailing wage and conform to other labor laws.
Ewing said the project is fully funded through Budget Unit 1781, Special Projects.
In other business, at 9:20 a.m., Community Development Department staff will present to the board the Lake County 2050 update. Lake County 2050 is the county’s general plan update.
