Re: <<APN>> / <<Property Address>>
Dear Property Owner,
Your property is located in the designated Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) Hazardous Fire Area which requires defensible space to be maintained around all structures on your property. Defensible space is the buffer created when combustible vegetation is removed or reduced around a structure to slow or stop the spread of wildfire. On February 28, 2023, Santa Clara County Fire Department mailed to you a packet of information regarding the enforced applicable wildland fire safety regulations, available community wildfire preparedness webinars, and this year’s property inspection schedule mandating compliance of the enforced applicable wildland fire safety regulations before June 1, 2023.

Your property was recently re-inspected by the Santa Clara County Fire Department on <<Re-inspection date>>. At that time, your property was found to be non-compliant with the applicable wildland fire safety regulations. The noted violation details are listed below:
<<Violations>>
<<Inspector comments>>
We are informed by the Town of Los Gatos that the Los Gatos Town Council will hold a public hearing at the Town Council meeting on Tuesday, June 20, 2023 @ 7:00 pm.

For more information on this process, please contact the Town of Los Gatos at 408.354.6888 or visit https://www.losgatosca.gov.

At that time, all properties identified by the Fire Department as being non-compliant with the applicable wildland fire safety regulations will be declared to have hazardous conditions requiring abatement. An additional inspection of all identified properties will be conducted after the hearing and prior to ordering any abatement work.

If you do not bring your property into compliance, the Town of Los Gatos through its contractor, may perform any brush or weed removal at your expense and will be placed on your property tax bill for payment after legal requirements are met. If you would like more information about the hazardous vegetation abatement contractor services, please contact the County of Santa Clara Weed Abatement Program at 408.282.3145 or visit https://weedabatement.sccgov.org. For your convenience, a price list indicating the rates for the County Contractor is included below.

report. Because the Salary Schedules were not listed on the posted agenda, Council could not consider them at the meeting.

DISCUSSION:

The Adopted Budget includes a 3% cost of living increase for Fiscal Year 2023/24 in the Memoranda of Understanding with all bargaining units that was approved by Council last year.

The preparation of the salary schedules involved the Town Manager’s Office, and the Human Resources and Finance Departments.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact is presented in summary form in the Financial Summaries chapter of the Proposed Operating and Capital Budget for FY 2023/24, which was adopted by Town Council on June 6, 2023.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

ITEM NO: 19
DATE: June 5, 2023
TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Laurel Prevetti, Town Manager

SUBJECT: Protest and Intent to Award Construction Agreement for the Adult Recreation Center Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Public Restroom Project (CIP No. 821-2601) DATE: June 5, 2023
BACKGROUND:

The Adult Recreation Center is lacking a restroom that is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Architectural plans have been developed and permitting has been approved to implement this project. Town Council authorized the project for bidding at its meeting of February 7, 2023. The project was advertised for construction on Friday, May 5, 2023. On May 18, 2023, bid packages were opened, and two contractors submitted bids:

Tucker Construction Inc. and San Jose Demolition Inc. On May 19, 2023, staff emailed San Jose Demolition and noted that they were the apparent low bidder (Attachment 1).

DISCUSSION:

During detailed review of the bids and associated documentation, staff determined that San Jose Demolition did not have the required Class A or B Contractor License at the time of the bid opening. The bid specifications required that responsive bids demonstrate that the bidder must possess a Class A or B Contractor License at the time of the bid opening (see Attachment 6). On San Jose Demolition’s bid form, “Class A License” was noted next to their Class C License number.

Staff contacted the Contractor State Licensing Board (CSLB) and verified that San Jose Demolition Inc. currently holds a Class C License and did not possess a Class A Contractor License as of May 18th, which was the date of the bid opening. CSLB confirmed that San Jose Demolition had applied for a Class A Contractor License and made an individual with a Class A License an Officer of their company on May 11, 2023. CSLB confirmed that the License change would not be in effect until after approval from the Contractor State Licensing Board.

CSLB also confirmed that an Officer’s Contractor License does not transfer to the company. In other words, San Jose Demolition did not obtain a Class A Contractor License by virtue of hiring an Officer with a Class A Contractor License. CSLB confirmed that obtaining a Class A Contractor License takes approximately 30 days from the date of application. As a result of this information from the CSLB, staff notified San Jose Demolition via a letter dated June 1 that their bid was not responsive (Attachment 2). In accordance with the Town’s purchasing policy, staff provided San Jose Demolition a 10-day bid protest period.

On June 9, 2023, San Jose Demolition submitted a formal bid protest (Attachment 3) stating that since an Officer of their company holds a Class A license, the firm was eligible for bidding, but did not provide statutory authority. CLSB has stated that the entity (rather than an employee of the entity) with which the Town would enter into contract must possess the applicable license on the date of the bid submittal.

SUBJECT: Protest and Intent to Award Construction Agreement for the Adult Recreation Center Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Public Restroom Project (CIP No. 821-2601) DATE: June 5, 2023
DISCUSSION (continued):

Tucker Construction Inc. provided the one other bid for this project, which was within 10% of the engineer’s estimate with a base bid of $250,000 (Attachment 4).

Staff recommends that the Town Council:
1) Deny the bid protest and reject the bid from San Jose Demolition as non-responsive; and 2) Award the Construction Agreement to Tucker Construction Inc. (Attachment 5) and authorize the Town Manager to execute the contract on behalf of the Town.

CONTRACTOR Base Bid
Engineer’s Estimate $250,000
Tucker Construction Inc. $249,490
San Jose Demolition Inc. $247,000
ALTERNATIVE:

The Town Council could reject all bids and re-bid the project. However, because the Town’s grant money must be committed no later than June 30, 2023, this option is not recommended.

CONCLUSION:

Town Council’s rejection of the bid protest and award to Tucker Construction will allow this project to move forward in a timely manner.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The adopted Fiscal Year (FY) 2022/23-2026/27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget is sufficient for the construction contract.

Marshall,
On May 18, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. San Jose Demolition Inc. submitted a bid package to the Town of Los Gatos for the Adult Recreation Center ADA Compliant Public Restroom project. At the time of the bid, an A or B Contractor License was required. The License listed on your bid package is currently a C Contractor License. You informed me that San Jose Demolition Inc. had applied for an A Contractor License on May 8, 2023. I confirmed your application with the Contractor State Licensing Board. The additional information I received was that an application for License would take approximately one month to show as active.

Due to the requirement of an A or B License at the time of the bid opening, your bid is therefore not responsive and cannot be considered further.

I joined San Jose Demolition on May 8th 2023 as a RMO for class A license. I bid the above subject project based on application filed with CSLB on May 8th, per state law an entity can bid after application filed but can not contract. Delaying your board meeting to June 20th is a proper date, by then Class A will be added to online for public view.

Attached is up to date info from CSLB website about status of our application. Also attached is your letter rejecting our bid.

Per My conversation with technician from CSLB today, the application is approved & will go online asap.

Therefore, our bid is responsive, RMO Marshall Leoman is an employee of San Jose Demolition Inc, His License is class A, #721813 is active and current. His license was active at bid day 5/18/2023.

If above info is still unsatisfactory to your side, then please let the project go to rebid, we will be bidding again this project if it go to rebid.

Thank you for your cooperation and hoping the Town of Los Gatos Award the project to low bidder San Jose Demolition Inc. on June 20th Board Meeting.

Sincerely,

(4) In the event CONTRACTOR employs subcontractors as part of the work covered by this Agreement, it shall be the responsibility of CONTRACTOR to ensure that all subcontractors comply with the same insurance requirements that are stated in this Agreement. (5) Approval of the insurance by TOWN or acceptance of the Certificate of Insurance by TOWN shall not relieve or decrease the extent to which CONTRACTOR may be held responsible for payment of damages resulting from CONTRACTOR's services or operation pursuant to this Agreement, nor shall it be deemed a waiver of TOWN's rights to insurance coverage hereunder.
(6) If, for any reason, CONTRACTOR fails to maintain insurance coverage that is required pursuant to this contract, the same shall be deemed a material breach of contract.

TOWN, at its sole option, may terminate this contract and obtain damages from CONTRACTOR resulting from said breach. Alternately, TOWN may purchase such required insurance coverage, and without further notice to CONTRACTOR, TOWN may deduct from sums due to CONTRACTOR any premium costs advanced by TOWN for such insurance.

DAMAGES
4-1.01 GENERAL
A. The bidder's attention is directed to the provisions of Section 4, “Scope of Work,” of the Standard Specifications, all of which are applicable to this Contract.

B. Attention is directed to the provisions in Section 8-1.04, “Start of Job Site Activities,” Section 8-1.05, “Time,” and Section 8-1.10, “Liquidated Damages,” of the Standard Specifications.
4-1.02 TIME OF COMPLETION
The Contractor shall begin work as stipulated in the Notice to Proceed.

The Contractor shall diligently prosecute the work to completion before the expiration of Ninety (90) working days after the date of the first working day. The time of completion shall include all allowances for mobilization and total completion of all work including final punch list work and final clean up.
4-1.03 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Time is of the essence for completion of this project. The Contractor shall pay to the Town of Los Gatos the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) per day for each and every calendar day's delay in the finishing of the work in excess of working days prescribed above. Liquidated damages shall also be assessed for non-compliance with the requirements stated in "Hours of Work" under Section 10-1, “General Construction Requirements,” of the Technical Specifications.

If the Work is not completed by Contractor in the time specified herein, or within any period of extension as above authorized, it is understood that the Owner will suffer damage; and it being impracticable and infeasible to determine the amount of actual damage, it is agreed that the Contractor shall pay to the Owner, as fixed and liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the sum as stated in the Contract, and the Contractor and the Contractor's Surety shall be liable for the amount thereof; provided, however, that the Contractor shall not be charged liquidated damages because of any delays in the completion of the work due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of Contractor (including, but not restricted to, Acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Government, acts of the Owner, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes and freight embargoes).

The Contractor shall, within 10 calendar days from the beginning of any such delay, notify the Owner in writing of the cause of the delay and the amount of time extension requested, if any; whereupon the Owner shall ascertain the facts and the extent of the delay and extend the time for completing the Work when, in its judgment and for the amount of time if any, the findings of fact justify such an extension. The Director of Parks and Public Works' determination shall be final and binding on the parties hereto.

See Section 9 of these Specifications regarding measurement and payment for increased or decreased quantities.

Any alteration or alterations made in the Plans and Specifications which are a part of this Contract, or any provision of this Contract shall not operate to release any surety or sureties from liability on any bond or bonds attached hereto and made a part hereof, and consent to make such alterations is hereby given, and the sureties to said bonds hereby waive the provisions of Civil Code §2819.

In giving instructions, the Engineer shall have authority to issue written change orders not inconsistent with the purpose of the Work. All change orders require issuance of a purchase order. Except in an emergency endangering life and property, no extra work or change shall be made unless in pursuance of such written order, and no claim for an addition to the Contract Sum shall be valid unless the additional work was so ordered.

Any change order that is in excess of the original Contract amount, plus any contingency, must be approved in the same manner as the original Contract.

Page 565 ends

CIP No. 821-2601 ARC Restroom project

Page 50 ends

encountered at the site differing materially from those indicated in the contract or if unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the work provided for in the contract, are encountered at the site, the party discovering such conditions shall promptly notify the other party in writing of the specific differing conditions before the site is disturbed and before the affected work is performed.

If you fail to promptly notify the Engineer, you waive the differing site condition claim for the period between your discovery of the differing site condition and your notification to the Engineer. If you disturb the site after discovery and before the Engineer's investigation, you waive the differing site condition claim.

2. Upon written notification, the Engineer will investigate the conditions, and if it is determined that the conditions materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost or time required for the performance of any work under the Contract, an adjustment, excluding anticipated profits, will be made and the contract modified in writing accordingly. The Engineer will notify the Contractor of the determination whether or not an adjustment of the contract is warranted.

3. No Contract adjustment which results in a benefit to the Contractor will be allowed unless the Contractor has provided the required written notice.

4. No Contract adjustment will be allowed under this clause for any effects caused on unchanged work.

Suspensions of Work Ordered by the Engineer

1. If the performance of all or any portion of the work is suspended or delayed by the Engineer in writing for an unreasonable period of time (not originally anticipated, customary, or inherent to the construction industry) and the Contractor believes that additional compensation and/or contract time is due as a result of such suspension or delay, the contractor shall submit to the engineer in writing a request for adjustment within 7 calendar days of receipt of the notice to resume work. The request shall set forth the reasons and support for such adjustment.

2. Upon receipt, the Engineer will evaluate the contractor's request. If the Engineer agrees that the cost and/or time required for the performance of the contract has increased as a result of such suspension and the suspension was caused by conditions beyond the control of and not the fault of the Contractor, its suppliers, or subcontractors at any approved tier, and not caused by weather, the engineer will make an adjustment (excluding profit) and modify the contract in writing accordingly. The Contractor will be notified of the engineer's determination whether or not an adjustment of the Contract is warranted.

3. No contract adjustment will be allowed unless the contractor has submitted the request for adjustment within the time prescribed.

4. No contract adjustment will be allowed under this clause to the extent that performance would have been suspended or delayed by any other cause, or for which an adjustment is provided or excluded under any other term or condition of this contract.

Such changes in quantities and alterations shall not invalidate the contract nor release the surety, and the contractor agrees to perform the work as altered.

2. If the alterations or changes in quantities significantly change the character of the work under the contract, whether such alterations or changes are in themselves significant changes to the character of the work or by affecting other work cause such other work to become significantly different in character, an adjustment, excluding anticipated profit, will be made to the contract. The basis for the adjustment shall be agreed upon prior to the performance of the work. If a basis cannot be agreed upon, then an adjustment will be made either for or against the contractor in such amount as the Engineer may determine to be fair and equitable.

3. If the alterations or changes in quantities do not significantly change the character of the work to be performed under the contract, the altered work will be paid for as provided elsewhere in the contract.

4. The term “significant change” shall be construed to apply only to the following circumstances:
• When the character of the work as altered differs materially in kind or nature from that involved or included in the original proposed construction; or • When a major item of work, as defined elsewhere in the contract, is increased in excess of 125 percent or decreased below 75 percent of the original contract quantity. Any allowance for an increase in quantity shall apply only to that portion in excess of 125 percent of original contract item quantity, or in case of a decrease below 75 percent, to the actual amount of work performed. 4-1.07 NOTIFICATION OF CHANGE IN CONDITION
Pursuant to Public Contracts Code §7104, when trenches or other excavations must be dug pursuant to this Contract that extend deeper than 4 feet below the surface, the Contractor shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify the Owner in writing of any:

A. Material that the Contractor believes may be material that is hazardous waste, as defined in Health & Safety Code §25117, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law; or, B. Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site differing from those indicated; or, C. Unknown physical conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the work of the character provided for in the Contract.

The Owner will promptly investigate the conditions identified by the Contractor, and if the Owner finds that the conditions do materially so differ, or do involve hazardous waste, and cause a decrease or increase in the Owner's cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work will issue a change order under the procedures described in the Contract Documents.

Page 567 ends

CIP No. 821-2601 ARC Restroom project

Page 52 ends

In the event a dispute arises between the Owner and the Contractor whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in the Contractor's cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work, the Contractor shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by the Contract Documents, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under the Contract Documents.

The written notice of potential claim shall set forth the reasons for which the Contractor believes additional compensation will or may be due, the nature of the costs involved, and insofar as possible, the amount of the potential claim. The notice as above required must have been given to the Engineer prior to the time that the Contractor shall have performed the work giving rise to the potential claim for additional compensation, if based on an act or failure to act by the Engineer, or in all other cases within 10 days after the happening of the event, thing, occurrence, or other cause, giving rise to the potential claim. Town may request additional information from Contractor regarding the Contractor’s claim which shall be provided to the Town within 10 days of the request. If the Contractor fails to provide notice as stipulated in this section, the Claim will be considered invalid, and no compensation will be allowed therefore.

It is the intention of this section that differences between parties arising under and by virtue of the contract be brought to the attention of the Engineer at the earliest possible time in order that such matters may be settled, if possible, or other appropriate action promptly taken. The Contractor herby agrees that they shall have no right to additional compensation for any claim that may be based on any such act, failure to act, event, thing or occurrence for which no written notice of potential claim as herein required was filed.

If the thirtieth (30th) day falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, then receipt of the written approval or statement of claims by the Engineer shall not be later than close of business of the next business day. No claim will be considered that was not included in the written statement or claims, nor will any claim be allowed as to which a notice or protest is required under these provisions in Section 4-1.05, “Changes and Extra Work,” Section 4-1.06, “Differing Site Conditions,” Section 5-1.36D, “Nonhighway Facilities,” Section 5-1.43, “Potential Claims and Dispute Resolution,” and Section 8-1.10, “Liquidated Damages,” of the Standard Specifications unless the Contractor has complied with the notice or protest requirements in those sections.

Claims filed by the Contractor shall be in sufficient detail to enable the Engineer to ascertain the basis and amount of said claims. If additional information or details are required by the Engineer to determine the basis and amount of the claims, the Contractor shall furnish additional information or details so that the additional information or details are received by the Engineer no later than the fifteenth (15th) day after receipt of the written request from the Engineer. If the fifteenth (15th) calendar day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, then receipt of the information or details by the Engineer shall not be later than close of business of the next business day. Failure to submit the information and details to the Engineer within the time specified will be sufficient cause for denying the claim.
