RE: SHERWOOD RECREATION CENTER
B&M CIVIL, LLC DBA B&M BUILDERS
Dear Ms. Robles:
We have been notified by the City of Salinas of past compliance issues with DIR and an OSHA violation for B&M Civil, LLC dba B&M Builders, who we have li sted for the HVAC scope of work on the Sherwood Recreation Center project.
Due to the fact that there was no prequalification requirement for subcontractors, B&M Builders is protected under subcontractor listing laws on this project.
Furthermore, with the limited scope of HVAC work, O tto Construction has no concerns using B&M Builders as a subcontractor. B&M Builders has recently hired a dedicated Safety Manager and has put new processes in place to ensure DIR compliance, bo th of which show commitment to improving upon past results.
Per the City’s request, Otto Construction will guarantee that B&M Builders will comply with DIR Requirements and OSHA safety regulations on this project. Otto Construction will have onsite supervision at all times during the course of this project.
Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to working with you on this project.
Sincerely,
OTTO CONSTRUCTION
