Staff Report No. 24-PW-041
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Hermosa Beach City Council
REJECT BID RECEIVED FROM CSI SERVICES AND PROVIDE DIRECTION TO STAFF FOR CIP 682 PARKING LOT D IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
(Public Works Director Joe SanClemente)
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Reject the bid received from CSI Services for CIP 682 Parking Lot D Improvements Project; and
2. Direct staff on how to proceed with the project based on the available options as outlined in this report.
Executive Summary:
The Fiscal Year 2024–2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes CIP 682 Parking Lot D Improvements to fully reconstruct the existing surface lot, while also incorporating storm water infiltration and other environmentally sustainable design elements, landscape and beautification, and bringing the lot up to current accessibility requirements. After receiving and reviewing the one project bid submitted, staff recommends City Council reject the bid and provide staff with direction on how to proceed based on the available options as outlined in this report.
Background:
The Parking Lot D improvement project was first conceived in 2017 to reconstruct Parking Lot D, located at the southwestern corner of Manhattan Avenue and 14th Street, as a demonstration project showcasing a range of environmentally sustainable design elements. The design phase was completed in August of 2024.
The current project includes increasing parking supply from 19 parking spaces to 22, including a combination of 13 standard stalls, 4 compact stalls, 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, 1 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) stall, and 2 small “golf cart” EV stalls. The project also includes a parking pay station, a solar panel canopy, stormwater infiltration, native vegetation, ADA ramp from the parking lot onto Manhattan Avenue, lighting, landscaping, and a covered trash enclosure.
At the FY 2024–2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) study session held on April 28, 2024, City Council provided staff with direction to pause the current project to obtain
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 2 of 6
information regarding the costs and feasibility of constructing a parking structure in place of the currently scoped project.
At its Special Meeting of June 4, 2024, after a careful review of the feasibility, cost, and other relevant factors such as additional time required to complete the design phase of a parking structure, and potential loss of grant funds, City Council decided to forgo the alternative option of building a parking structure in lieu of the previously envisioned surface parking lot and directed staff to continue with the effort to finalize the design phase of the project and proceed with the construction phase as quickly as possible.
Per Hermosa Beach Municipal Code Section 17.58.020, “the use of land, and erection, construction or location of buildings or structures in any zone shall require submittal of plans for Planning Commission’s review.” At its meeting of August 20, 2024, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on Precise Development Plan (PDP) 24-10 for the Parking Lot D project. After reviewing public input and staff recommendations, the Commission determined the project met the required findings for PDP approval. The Commission adopted Resolution No. 24-16, approving the project, subject to conditions of approval.
At its September 10, 2024 meeting and subsequent to the Planning Commission’s approval of the project’s PDP, City Council expressed concerns with certain aspects of the project and voted to initiate a de novo hearing to review the Planning Commission approval of a Precise Development Plan (PDP 24-10). At its October 8, 2024 meeting, City Council reviewed the aforementioned plan, and after deliberation, adopted Resolution No. 24-7458 approving the Precise Development Plan.
Coastal Commission Permit
The Project is also subject to California Coastal Commission review and approval for a Coastal Development Permit. The application to Coastal Commission required approval by the City’s Community Development Department following the PDP approval. The application is currently under review by the Coastal Commission to determine completeness. Once deemed complete, and assuming no further information is requested that would trigger an additional review period, the Coastal Commission has up to 180 days to either approve or disapprove the project. While staff has been in close coordination with Coastal staff and does not believe that the review and approval will require the full duration, Coastal Commission staff cannot provide a more definitive estimate for the completion of the review and approval process.
Project Funding
The FY 2024–25 CIP reflects a total project budget of $1,815,838, which includes $433,650 in grant funds from the Coastal Conservancy (Conservancy), $423,950 in grant funds from the Safe Clean Water (SCW, formerly Measure W) regional program, $200,000 of local return SCW funds, and $758,238 from the City’s Storm Drain fund.
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 3 of 6
The Coastal Conservancy grant has a current deadline of February 28, 2025 to be expended. The Safe Clean Water grant funding has a current deadline of June 2026 to be expended but does include the possibility of being extend for an indefinite period subject to formal request to the program’s governing board and its discretion. Any significant modifications to the project scope or cost would also require submittal of a grant modification request for consideration and approval. The local return Measure W funds are restricted and the City Storm Drain Funds are a committed funding source for use on stormwater-related projects.

Meeting Date Description
October 8, 2024 City Council held a de novo hearing to review the Planning Commission’s approval and adopted Resolution No. 24-
7458 approving the Precise Development Plan.
Analysis:
On October 08, 2024, the City issued Notice Inviting Bids 24-007 inviting experienced contractors to submit a bid for the project. The project was advertised for formal competitive bids in the local newspaper, on the City’s electronic bidding platform Planet Bids, and in relevant construction trade journals.
On October 29, 2024, the City received one bid, which was opened and read aloud by the City Clerk. The bid result is provided in Attachment 1 and summarized below.
Bid Result Summary
Bidder Bid Amount
CSI Services $1,780,578
The bid submitted by CSI Services is significantly higher than the design engineer’s construction cost estimate of $1,450,000. The budget for the project in the FY 2024-25 CIP is $1,815,838. This budget amount would not be sufficient to cover the cost of construction submitted by CSI Services with the addition of necessary construction contingency, the cost of construction management, inspection services and material testing. It is estimated that an additional amount of approximately $242,000 would be required to properly fund the project to allow for the additional costs described above.
A detailed analysis of the bid submitted by CSI services, shows that some of the 143 bid line items were unreasonably high and do not reflect the current public works construction bid environment. Staff also contacted 11 of the contractors who had participated in the bid process, but that failed to submit a bid, to understand the reasons for their lack of participation. Most of the contractors indicated that they were not able to submit a bid due to their current heavy backlog of work and not having adequate resources to take on additional projects. Several of the contractors also indicated that they were deterred from bidding on the project because they needed more time to prepare a bid for the solar components.
Staff recommends rejecting the single bid received on the project. If the City were to proceed with this bidder, it would require allocating additional funds to the project.
Additionally, the City does not yet have a Coastal Commission Permit and would have to advance at risk as it is unclear if the City would receive a Coastal Development Permit approval before the Coastal Conservancy funds lapse after February 28, 2025, which would reduce the available funding to just $1,382,188. Any redesign and readvertising of the project for new bids would take at least three months, which would preclude the City’s
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 5 of 6
the ability to meet the February timeline required by the subject grant. Therefore, it is anticipated that the City will no longer be able to utilize the $433,650 in Coastal Conservancy grant funds for this project.
Parking Lot D has several deferred maintenance, accessibility, and aesthetic issues that will require attention in the near future that this CIP was intended to address. Any significant resurfacing of the lot would trigger compliance with current accessibility requirements including the construction of the switchback ramp providing access to Manhattan Avenue, as well as bringing the existing driveway apron and adjacent curb ramps up to compliance.
Construction of the ramp would also address the issue of the existing wooden retaining wall that is in poor condition and needs to be replaced. In addition, the existing irrigation is not currently operable, and the landscaping is in poor condition. A very rough order of magnitude cost estimate for this work and resurfacing of the entire lot is anticipated to be approximately $900,000 including design and construction. This effort would require a redesign which would also require additional staff time to oversee the revised effort and would need to be reprioritized against the delivery of other programmed or future CIPs.
In addition, the current local funding may need to be re-evaluated for appropriateness, depending on final scope, since it is using all local stormwater related funding sources.
The integration of sustainability elements for the current project allowed the City to leverage grant funds and local storm water related funding sources.
Staff also recommends Council consider the following options for the Project and direct staff on how to proceed:
1. Revise the project design and readvertise to reduce the scope of work to fit within revised budget of $1,382,188, since the Coastal Conservancy funds will lapse on February 28, 2025. Reduction in scope would include eliminating the carport and photovoltaic system and analyzing other opportunities for value engineering some elements of the project such as the retaining walls and stormwater capture devices.
To advance this option, staff would need to confirm that by eliminating the photovoltaic system the City would still qualify to receive the full grant amount of $423,950 through the Safe Clean Water funds, which would require staff to submit a grant modification request. It is anticipated that this process would take several months to complete.
Once confirmed that the funding would remain available, staff would then reengage the design engineer to revise the plans at an additional cost of approximately $30,000 and is expected to take approximately three (3) months to
City of Hermosa Beach | Page 6 of 6
complete revisions to the plans and construction documents and readvertise the project.
2. Substantial reduction of scope of the current design by eliminating installation of the carport and photovoltaic system and stormwater infiltration and other environmentally sustainable design elements. The project scope would only include resurfacing and construction of the accessible ramp to provide access from Manhattan Avenue. This option is not in alignment with the City’s Low Impact Development requirements for stormwater capture and would no longer be able to utilize any of the current grant or local funding sources that are tied to stormwater and would need to find another funding source to be considered as part of a future budget cycle. A rough order of magnitude cost estimate for this option is $900,000 including design and construction and would require returning to City Council at a future date to identify non-stormwater funding sources to advance the project.
3. Place the project on hold and revisit it at the time of the FY 2025–2026 budget discussions.

“Faithful Performance Bond" in the sum of not less than 100% of the Contract price to assure the faithful performance of the Contract; shall be conditioned as to assure the faithful performance by the Contractor of all work under said Contract, in a manner that is satisfactory and acceptable to the City; that all materials and workmanship supplied by him will be free from original or developed defects; and that should original or developed defects or failures appear, the Contractor shall, at his own expense, make good such defects and failures and make all replacements and adjustments required, within a reasonable time after being notified by the City to do so, and to the satisfaction of the City.
Rejection of Proposals: The City reserves the right to reject any and all proposals and to waive any minor or technical discrepancies or irregularities. Proposals may be rejected if they show any alteration of form, additions not called for, conditional bids, incomplete bids, erasures, or irregularities of any kind.
Agents: When proposals are signed by an agent, other than the officer or officers of a corporation authorized to sign Contracts on its behalf or a member of a partnership, a "Power of Attorney" must be on file with the City prior to opening bids or shall be submitted with the proposal; otherwise, the proposal will be rejected as irregular and unauthorized.
Withdrawal of Proposals: Any bid may be withdrawn at any time prior to the time fixed in the public notice for the opening of bids only by written request for the withdrawal of the bid
10 filed with the City Engineer. The request shall be executed by the Bidder or their duly authorized representative. The withdrawal of a bid does not prejudice the right of the Bidder to file a new bid. Bids are opened exactly at the time fixed in the public notice for opening bids. A bid will not be received after that time, nor may any bid be withdrawn after that time. No Bidder may withdraw his bid within ninety (90) days after the actual date of the opening thereof.
Insurance: Without limiting Contractor's indemnification, Contractor shall maintain in force at all times during the performance of this agreement the insurance provisions set out in the Contract Agreement.
City Business License and Permits: The successful Bidder shall obtain a valid City of Hermosa Beach Business License prior to commencing work under this Contract.
The successful Bidder will be required to obtain City Right of Way Permit to work in public right-of-way, issued at no fee for the project.
Increased or Decreased Quantities: The City reserves the right to increase, or decrease, or to entirely eliminate items or portions of items from work if found desirable or expedient.
Approximate Estimate: The quantities in the Bid Schedule are approximate only, being given as a basis for the comparison of bids. The City does not, expressly or by implication, agree that the actual amount of work will correspond therewith. The Contractor shall verify in the field the accuracy of the estimated quantities.
Examination of Plans, Specifications, Contract, and Site of Work: The Bidder shall examine carefully the site of the work contemplated, the Plans and Specifications, and the proposal and Contract forms therefor. The submission of a bid shall be conclusive evidence that the Bidder has investigated and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered, as to the character, quality and scope of work to be performed, the quantities of materials to be furnished, and as to the requirements of the proposal, Plans, Specifications, and the Contract.
Where the City may have made investigations of subsurface conditions in areas where work is to be performed under the Contract, such investigations are made only for the purpose of study and design. Where such investigations have been made, Bidders or Contractors may, upon written request, inspect the records of the City as to such investigations subject to and upon the conditions hereinafter set forth. Such inspection of records may be made at the office of the City Engineer.
The records of such investigations are not a part of the Contract and are shown solely for the convenience of the Bidder or Contractor. It is expressly understood and agreed that the City assumes no responsibility whatsoever in respect to the sufficiency or accuracy of the investigations thus made, the records thereof, or of the interpretations set forth therein or made by the City in its use thereof and there is no warranty or guaranty, either expressed or implied, that the conditions indicated by such investigations or records thereof are representative of those existing throughout such areas, or any part thereof, or that unlooked for developments may not occur, or that materials other than, or in proportions different than these indicated, may not be encountered.
Bidders shall satisfy themselves by personal examination of the locations of the proposed
11 work, and by such other means as they may choose as to actual conditions and requirements and as to the accuracy of the quantities stated in the Proposal forms. Information derived from the maps, plans, specifications, profiles, or drawings, or from the Engineer or his assistants (or the Architects or their assistants), shall not relieve the Bidder of this responsibility, and the interpretation of the data disclosed by borings or other preliminary investigations is not guaranteed nor is any liability assumed by the City.
If a prospective Bidder is in doubt as to the true meaning or intent of any part of the Contract Documents including the Specifications, or discovers discrepancies in, or omissions from, the Specifications or Drawings, they may submit to the Engineer a written request for an interpretation or a correction thereof via Planet Bids. Interpretations or corrections of the Contract Documents including the Specifications and Drawings, shall be made only by addendum duly issued by the Engineer, and a copy of such addendum will be uploaded on Planet Bids and such addendum shall be considered a part of and incorporated in the Contract Documents.
Relief of Bidders: If the Bidder claims a mistake was made in their bid, the Bidder shall give the City written notice within five (5) days after the opening of the bids of the alleged mistake, specifying in the notice in detail how the mistake occurred.
Disqualification of Bidders: More than one proposal from an individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or combination thereof under the same or different names will not be considered.
Reasonable grounds for believing that any individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or combination thereof is interested in more than one proposal for the work contemplated may cause the rejection of all proposals in which such individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or combination thereof is interested. If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the Bidders, any or all proposals may be rejected. Proposals in which the prices obviously are unbalanced due to mathematical errors may be rejected.
Award of Contract: The award of the Contract, if it be awarded, will be to the lowest responsible Bidder whose proposal complies with all of the requirements prescribed. Such award, if made, will normally be made within in ninety (90) calendar days of the opening of the proposals.
If the lowest responsible Bidder refuses or fails to execute the Contract, the City may award the Contract to the second lowest responsible Bidder. If the second lowest responsible Bidder refuses or fails to execute the Contract, the City may award the Contract to the third lowest responsible Bidder.
Execution of Contract: The Contract shall be signed by the successful Bidder and returned, together with the Contract bonds, insurance endorsements and certificates, and all other required documents within ten (10) business days after the Bidder has received notice of intent to award.
Failure to Execute Contract: Failure of the lowest responsible Bidder, the second lowest responsible Bidder, or the third lowest responsible Bidder to execute the Contract and file acceptable bonds as provided herein within ten (10) business days after such Bidder has received notice that the Contract has been awarded to them shall be just cause for the forfeiture of the proposal guaranty. The successful Bidder may file with the City Engineer a written notice, signed by the Bidder, or his authorized representative, specifying that the Bidder will refuse to execute the Contract if presented to him. The filing of such notice shall
12 have the same force and effect as the failure of the Bidder to execute the Contract and furnish acceptable bonds within the time herein above prescribed.
Return of Proposal Guaranties: Within ten (10) business days after the award of the Contract to the lowest responsible Bidder, the City will return the proposal guaranties, other than Bidder's bonds, accompanying such of the proposals as are not to be further considered in making the award. Retained proposal guaranties will be held until the Contract has been finally executed, after which all proposal guaranties, except Bidder's bonds and any guaranties which have been forfeited, will be returned to the respective Bidders whose proposals they accompany.
Qualifications of Bidders: Each Bidder shall be skilled and regularly engaged in the general class or type of work called for under the Contract. A statement setting forth their experience shall be submitted by each Bidder on the References of Work form provided herein.
Each Bidder shall possess valid active Contractor’s License issued by the Contractor’s State License Board at the time their bid is submitted. The class of license shall be applicable to the work specified in the Contract. Each Bidder shall also have no less than five (5) years’ experience in the magnitude and the character of the work bid.
Pursuant to section 1103 of the Public Contract Code, City staff has determined that the following non-exhaustive experience is reasonably necessary to satisfactorily perform the public works Contract:
The Contractor shall have a minimum of five (5) projects of similar type of construction and magnitude with other public agencies within the past five (5) years.
The Contractor shall have been in the business under the same name and California Contractor’s License for a minimum of five (5) continuous years prior to the bid opening date for this project. The license used to satisfy this requirement shall be of the same type as that required by the Contract.
The Contractor shall perform above 50% of the Contract with its own forces.
Bidders must be thoroughly competent and capable of satisfactorily performing the work covered by the proposal. They shall have had project experience similar to the project scope of work. When requested, they shall furnish such statements relative to previous experience on similar work, the plan or procedure proposed, and the organization, machinery, plant, and other equipment available for the contemplated work, and the financial condition and resources of the Bidder, as may be deemed necessary by the City Engineer in determining such competence and capability.
The City of Hermosa Beach will not enter into a Contract with any Bidder who is not properly licensed to do the work of this Contract under the provisions of Section 7000 et seq., of the Business and Professions Code, unless particularly exempted by the terms thereof. A bid by a Contractor who is not properly licensed shall be considered non-responsive and will be rejected. The Contractor must hold all sub-Contractors to these same Contract requirements.
The sheet for Bidder's signature in the Bid Proposal shall clearly show the Contractor's name, date, signature, and State of California Contractor’s license number.
13 Completeness of Bids: Bids are required for the entire work. The amount of the bid for comparison purposes will be the total bid price of all items. The Bidder shall set forth the bid price for each item in the respective spaces provided for these purposes.
In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for the item, the unit price shall prevail, provided, however, if the amount set forth as a unit price is ambiguous, unintelligible or uncertain for any cause, or is omitted, or in the case where the unit price is the same amount as the entry in the "Total" column, then the amount set forth in the "Total" column for the item shall prevail in accordance with the following:
a) As to lump sum items, the amount set forth in the "Total" column shall be the unit price.
b) As to unit price items, the amount set forth in the "Total" column shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price.
The City may waive technical or non-substantive inconsistencies in any bid.
Non-discrimination: Pursuant to the provisions of 31 CFR, Part 51, Section 51.55, the Revenue Sharing Act, notice is hereby given of the following policy, effective immediately:
The City of Hermosa Beach does not discriminate on the basis of handicapped status in admission or access to, or treatment of, or employment in, its programs and activities. The office that will coordinate compliance is that of Human Resources.
Workers’ Compensation Insurance: Before execution of this Agreement by the City, the Contractor shall file with the City’s Risk Manager the following signed certification:
“I am aware of, and will comply with, Section 3700 of the Labor Code, requiring every employer to be insured against liability for Workers’ Compensation or to undertake selfinsurance before commencing any of the work.” The Contractor shall also comply with Section 3700 of the Labor Code by securing, paying for and maintaining in full force and effect for the duration of this Agreement, complete Workers’ Compensation Insurance, and shall furnish a Certificate of Insurance to the City’s Risk Manager reflecting such insurance before this Agreement becomes effective.
Contractor shall fully indemnify and hold harmless City, its attorneys, agents, officers, and employees for any claims in law or equity occasioned by the failure of Contractor to comply with the terms of this section. Every Workers’ Compensation Insurance policy required hereunder, shall bear an endorsement, or shall have attached a rider, providing that in the event of expiration or proposed cancellation of such policy for any reason whatsoever, the City’s Risk Manager shall be notified of such action by registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, at least 30 days before such expiration or cancellation becomes effective.
Indemnification: Bidders are instructed to refer to the Contract Agreement.
Subcontractors: Bidders must list the name, address of the place of business, Contractor license number, and DIR registration number for each subcontractor to be responsible for more than 1/2 of 1% of the total bid, and the portion of the job for which that subcontractor is responsible. Only one subcontractor may be listed for each portion of the job.
14 Unfair Business Practices Claims: In entering into a public works Contract or a subcontract to supply goods, services, or materials pursuant to a public works Contract, the Contractor or sub-Contractor offers and agrees to assign to the awarding body all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C.
Section 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, (commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services, or materials pursuant to the public works Contract or the subcontract. This assignment shall be made and become effective at the time the awarding body renders final payment to the Contractor without further acknowledgment by the parties. (Section 7103.5, California Public Contract Code.)
Bidder Registration Requirement: Pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all Contractors and subcontractors that wish to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a Contract to perform public work must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). No bid will be accepted, nor any Contract entered into without proof of the Contractor’s and subcontractors’ current registration with the DIR to perform public work.
If awarded a Contract, the Bidder and its subcontractors, of any tier, shall maintain active registration with the DIR for the duration of the Project. To this end, Bidder shall sign and submit with its bid proposal the Public Works Contractor Registration Certification on the form provided, attesting to the facts contained therein. Failure to submit this form may render the bid non-responsive. In addition, each Bidder shall provide the registration number for each listed subcontractor in the space provided in the Subcontractors List form.
Claim Procedures: Bidders are instructed to refer to the Contract Documents, including by way of illustration and not by limitation the Contract Agreement.
Protest Procedures: Bidders may file a “protest” of a bid proposal with the City’s City Manager. In order for a Bidder’s protest to be considered valid, the protest must:
A. Be filed in writing within five (5) calendar days after the bid opening date; B. Clearly identify the specific irregularity or accusation; C. Clearly identify the specific City staff determination or recommendation being protested;
D. Specify in detail the grounds for protest and the facts supporting the protest; E. Include all relevant supporting documentation with the protest at time of filing; and F. Be transmitted concurrently to all other parties with a direct financial interest that may be adversely affected by the outcome of the protest. Such parties shall include all other Bidders or proposers who appear to have a reasonable prospect of receiving an award depending upon the outcome of the protest.
If the protest does not comply with each of these requirements, the City may reject the protest with or without further review.
If the protest is timely and complies with the above requirements, the City Manager, or other designated City staff member, shall review the protest, any response from the challenged
15 Bidder(s), and all other relevant information, and will provide a written decision to the protestor.
The City Manager or designee shall have up to ten calendar days to decide whether to approve or reject the protest. The written decision of the City Manager or designee on the protest shall be served upon the protesting Bidder and any Bidder subject to the protest within fourteen (14) calendar days of receipt of the bid protest. The City Manager or designee may extend the ten (10) calendar days if necessary, to review additional information requested from any Bidder.
If the protester wishes to further contest the protest, it shall appeal this decision to the City Council by filing a statement of appeal with the City Clerk within five (5) days of the issuance of the City Manager’s decision. Said statement of appeal shall include all information required of the original bid protest, as well as a short and plain statement setting forth why Protester disputes the City Manager’s decision and the legal and factual basis for such dispute. Any person or entity may present a formal protest to the City with respect to solicitations being conducted by staff.
A Bidder whose bid has been protested by another Bidder may submit to the City Manager a written response to the protest by email or by personal delivery or overnight mail to City Hall, 1315 Valley Drive, Hermosa Beach, California 90254, so that it is received by the City no later than seven calendar days after the protest has been served by the protesting Bidder.

CIP NO. 682
PARKING LOT “D” IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT
43 A. CONTRACT AGREEMENT
This Construction Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the date executed by the Mayor and attested to by the City Clerk, by and between [INSERT CONTRACTOR NAME] (hereinafter referred to as "CONTRACTOR") and the City of Hermosa Beach, California, a municipal corporation (hereinafter referred to as "CITY").
R E C I T A L S
A. Pursuant to the Notice Inviting Sealed Bids for CIP NO. [INSERT NUMBER] [INSERT PROJECT NAME] (“Project”), bids were received, publicly opened, and declared on the date specified in the notice; and
B. On [INSERT DATE], City’s City Council declared CONTRACTOR to be the lowest responsible Bidder and accepted the bid of CONTRACTOR; and
C. The City Council has authorized the Mayor to execute a written Contract with CONTRACTOR for furnishing labor, equipment, and material for the CIP No. [INSERT NUMBER], [INSERT PROJECT NAME] in the City of Hermosa Beach.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed:
1. GENERAL SCOPE OF WORK: CITY agrees to engage CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR agrees to furnish all necessary labor, tools, materials, appliances, and equipment for and do the work for the CIP NO. [INSERT NUMBER] [INSERT PROJECT NAME]in the City of Hermosa Beach. The work shall be performed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications dated [INSERT DATE], (the “Specifications”) on file in the office of the City Clerk and in accordance with bid prices set forth in CONTRACTOR’S Bid Proposal and in accordance with the instructions of the City Engineer.
2. INCORPORATED DOCUMENTS TO BE CONSIDERED COMPLEMENTARY: The Contract documents for the aforesaid project shall consist of the Notice Inviting Bids, Instructions to Bidders, Bid Proposal, Builders General Provisions, Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction 2024 edition, Special Provisions, Exhibit A, [LIST ALL EXHIBITS HERE] , and all referenced specifications, details, standard drawings, and appendices; together with this Agreement and all required bonds, insurance certificates, permits, notices and affidavits; and also, including any and all addenda or supplemental agreements clarifying, amending, or extending the work contemplated as may be required to insure its completion in an acceptable manner. All of the provisions of said Contract documents are made a part hereof as though fully set forth herein.
This Contract is intended to require a complete and finished piece of work and anything necessary
44 to complete the work properly and in accordance with the law and lawful governmental regulations shall be performed by CONTRACTOR whether set out specifically in the Contract or not. Should it be ascertained that any inconsistency exists between the aforesaid documents and this written agreement, the provisions of this Agreement, the Builders General Provisions and the Standard Specifications, in that order, shall control. Collectively, these Contract documents constitute the complete agreement between CITY and CONTRACTOR and supersede any previous agreements or understandings.
3. COMPENSATION: CONTRACTOR agrees to receive and accept the prices set forth in its Bid Proposal [INSERT VALUE] as full compensation for furnishing all materials, performing all work, and fulfilling all obligations hereunder. Said compensation shall cover all expenses, losses, damages, and consequences arising out of the nature of the work during its progress or prior to its acceptance including those for well and faithfully completing the work and the whole thereof in the manner and time specified in the aforesaid Contract documents; and also including those arising from actions of the elements, unforeseen difficulties or obstructions encountered in the prosecution of the work, suspension or discontinuance of the work, and all other unknowns or risks of any description connected with the work.
4. TIME OF PERFORMANCE: CONTRACTOR agrees to complete the work within [INSERT VALUE] working days from the date of the notice to proceed. By signing this Agreement, CONTRACTOR represents to CITY that the Contract time is reasonable for completion of the work and that CONTRACTOR will complete such work within the Contract time.
5. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: In accordance with Government Code section 53069.85, it is agreed that CONTRACTOR will pay to CITY the sum set forth in the Special Provisions for each and every calendar day of delay beyond the time prescribed in the Contract Documents for finishing the Work, as Liquidated Damages and not as a penalty or forfeiture. In the event this is not paid, CONTRACTOR agrees CITY may deduct that amount from any money due or that may become due CONTRACTOR under the Contract. This Article does not exclude recovery of other damages specified in the Contract Documents.
6. SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES: Pursuant to section 22300 of the Public Contract Code of the State of California, CONTRACTOR may request CITY to make retention payments directly to an escrow agent or may substitute securities for any money withheld by CITY to ensure performance under the Contract. At the request and expense of CONTRACTOR, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall be deposited with CITY or with a state or federally chartered bank as the escrow agent who shall return such securities to CONTRACTOR upon satisfactory completion of the Contract. Deposit of securities with an escrow agent shall be subject to a written agreement substantially in the form provided in section 22300 of the Public Contract Code.
7. PREVAILING WAGES AND CALIFORNIA LABOR LAWS.
Pursuant to Labor Code §§ 1720 et seq., and as specified in 8 California Code of Regulations § 16000 (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), CONTRACTOR must pay its workers prevailing wages. It is CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to interpret and implement any prevailing wage requirements,
45 and CONTRACTOR agrees to pay any penalty or civil damages resulting from a violation of the prevailing wage laws. CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold the CITY, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. CONTRACTOR and any subcontractor shall forfeit a penalty of up to $200 per calendar day or portion thereof for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates.
In accordance with Labor Code § 1773.2, copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages are available upon request from CITY’s Engineering Division or the website for State of California Prevailing wage determination at http://www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD. CONTRACTOR must post a copy of the prevailing rate of per diem wages at the job site.
CITY directs CONTRACTOR’s attention to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the employment of apprentices by CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor.
Labor Code § 1777.5 requires CONTRACTOR or subcontractor employing tradesmen in any apprenticeship occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The certificate must also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the performance of the Contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases will not be less than one to five except:
When CONTRACTOR provides evidence that CONTRACTOR employs registered apprentices on all of his Contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to five journeymen.
When unemployment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 days before the request for certificate, or When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of one to five, or When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis state-wide or locally, or
Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works Contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if CONTRACTOR employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such Contracts and if other Contractors on the public works site are making such contributions.
CONTRACTOR and any subcontractor must comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.
46 Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex-officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim will be processed and made within 60 calendar days after the public entity issues its written statement.
If CITY needs approval from its governing body to provide the CONTRACTOR a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the governing body does not meet within the 45 calendar days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, CITY shall have up to three calendar days following the next duly publicly noticed meeting of the governing body after the 45-day period, or extension, expires to provide CONTRACTOR a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion.

CITY and CONTRACTOR shall mutually agree to a mediator within 14 calendar days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing unless the parties agree to select a mediator at a later time.
If the Parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each Party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each Party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator.

For purposes of those provisions, the running of the period of time within which a claim must be filed shall be tolled from the time CONTRACTOR submits his or her
57 written claim pursuant to subdivision (a) until the time the claim is denied, including any period of time utilized by the meet and confer conference or mediation.
Civil Actions. The following procedures are established for all civil actions filed to resolve claims subject to this Section:
Within 60 calendar days, but no earlier than 30 calendar days, following the filing or responsive pleadings, the court shall submit the matter to non-binding mediation unless waived by mutual stipulation of both parties or unless mediation was held prior to commencement of the action in accordance with Public Contract Code section 9204 and the terms of these procedures.. The mediation process shall provide for the selection within 15 calendar days by both parties of a disinterested third person as mediator, shall be commenced within 30 calendar days of the submittal, and shall be concluded within 15 calendar days from the commencement of the mediation unless a time requirement is extended upon a good cause showing to the court.
If the matter remains in dispute, the case shall be submitted to judicial arbitration pursuant to Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 1141.10) of Title 3 of Part 3 of the Code of Civil Procedure, notwithstanding Section 1114.11 of that code. The Civil Discovery Act of 1986 (Article 3 (commencing with Section 2016) of Chapter 3 of Title 3 of Part 4 of the Code of Civil Procedure) shall apply to any proceeding brought under this subdivision consistent with the rules pertaining to judicial arbitration.

Such Government Code claims and any subsequent lawsuit based upon the Government Code claims shall be limited to those matters that remain unresolved after all procedures pertaining to extra work, disputed work, claims, and/or changed conditions have been followed by CONTRACTOR. If no such Government Code claim is submitted, or if any prerequisite Contractual requirements are not otherwise satisfied as specified herein, CONTRACTOR shall be barred from bringing and maintaining a valid lawsuit against the CITY. A Government Code claim must be filed no earlier than the date the work is completed or the date CONTRACTOR last performs work on the Project, whichever occurs first.
A Government Code claim shall be inclusive of all unresolved claims unless a new unrelated claim arises after the Government Code claim is submitted.
Non-Waiver. CITY’s failure to respond to a claim from CONTRACTOR within the time periods described in this Section or to otherwise meet the time requirements of this Section shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. CITY’s failure to respond shall not waive CITY’s rights to any subsequent procedures for the resolution of disputed claims.

As a part of the obligation secured hereby and in addition to the face amount specified therefore, there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by City in enforcing such obligation.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the
