DISCUSSION On September 19, 2002, the City received bids for the Palm Street Garage Paint Project. Staff is recommending that all bids received be rejected pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 20166 and the project postponed until Spring 2003. Public Contract Code Section 20166 provides that the City Council may reject all bids in its discretion. The time of year and upcoming holiday period reinforces the need to delay this project to a better time for more optimum weather conditions. By rejecting the bids and waiting until Spring 2003, this project can be combined with the Marsh St. Garage painting project, likely resulting in cost savings to the City achieved by bidding them together. CONCURRENCES The Director of Public Works and City Attorney concur with staff's recommendation, which is in compliance with Public Contract Code. FISCAL IMPACT There would be no direct fiscal impact for approving the CAO recommendation Alternatives One alternative is to proceed to construction.
