BACKGROUND & HISTORY:
The City of Corona is committed to providing a sense of place for the community and increasing accessibility and equitable access to City services and spaces to help accomplish this Strategic Plan goal. This commitment has been illustrated through a continued investment in much-needed accessibility improvements at Corona’s parks and public facilities. The City is currently working through a five-year plan to address many of the accessibility issues at thirty-three (33) of Corona’s parks that were identified through a prior assessment. Cresta Verde Park is part of the second year of these improvements. The majority of identified improvements were made at Cresta Verde Park earlier this year, and this Project will complete the remaining items by improving access at the parking lot at the Collett Avenue entrance as well as refreshing the parking lot on Brianna Way.

This was done pursuant to Public Contract Code formal bidding procedures and Corona Municipal Code Section 3.08.090. A total of 162 prospective bidders were notified about the Project. Twelve (12) bids were received by the due date and time of September 13, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. The results of the bids are as follows:

As part of the Notice Inviting Bids, bidders had to provide an experience statement with their bid submission listing at least three public agencies that they have performed similar work for within a 100-mile radius of Corona within the last five years. The purpose of the experience statement is to require the contractor to have sufficient resources and experience to perform the work requested in the Notice Inviting Bids, thereby ensuring the City of Corona receives quality services at a competitive price. Failure to comply with the requirement would result in the bidder’s bid being deemed non-responsive. Upon review of the bid submissions, the lowest bidder, NPG, Inc., had the requisite experience. Staff recommends that the City Council award the Project to NPG, Inc. of Perris, City of Corona Page 2 of 3 Printed on 10/12/2022
