RESOLUTION NO. 2711-00
A Resolution of the South Tahoe Public Utility District
Authorizing Construction of Alpine County Office
and Storage Building
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility
District, County of EI Dorado, State of California, as follows:
WHEREAS, California law and the District's purchasing policy generally require
public works projects to be let to the lowest responsible, responsive bidder; and
WHEREAS, the District formally advertised for bids on a project to construct an
office and storage building in Alpine County (Alpine County Office Project). In addition,
the District informally contacted various contractors and alerted them of the opportunity
12 to bid on the project; and
WHEREAS, at the September 19, 2000 bid opening, the District received only a
single bid on the Alpine County Office Project from Thomas Haen Company (the
Contractor), and the District considers that bid to be unsatisfactory; and
WHEREAS, State law and the District's purchasing policy permit the Board of
Directors of the District to reject all bids and also permit the Board of Directors to waive
competitive bidding requirements in circumstances where advertising for bids will not
produce a competitive advantage and is not in the public interest; and
WHEREAS, District staff and the Operations Committee, and the Contractor have
negotiated the proposed terms of a contract to construct the Alpine County Office Project
22 that is satisfactory to the District.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, AS FOLLOWS:
1. The bid received on the Alpine County Office Project is hereby rejected.
2. Readvertising for bids on the Alpine County Project would not produce a
a competitive advantage and is not in the public interest because it is
extremely unlikely that second bidding process would produce a lower bid.
