DISCUSSION:
The Marina Park Project is divided into four general construction plan sets and bid
packages: (1) Site Demolition and Tree Relocation; (2) Marina Basin Construction; (3)
Community Center and Park; and (4) Docks. Contract No. 3897 -A - Site Demolition and
Tree Relocation was awarded by City Council on October 22, 2013 and is currently
underway. This contract, Contract No. 3897 -B, is to award the work related to Bid Package
2, which generally includes improving /stabilizing the underlying ground for the future
Community and Sailing Center buildings through the use of stone columns; installing the
marina bulkheads /groin walls with dead -man tie backs and pre- fabricated handrail; dredging
of the marina basin; and placing and grading of the dredged sand material on to target
beaches.
The low bidder, Dutra Construction Company, Inc., possesses a California State Contractors
License Classification "A" as required by the project specifications. A check of Dutra's and its
subcontractors' references indicates satisfactory completion of projects of comparable size
and scope. Dutra was the US Army Corps of Engineers' contractor for the recent lower
Newport Harbor Dredging project.
At 1:30 PM on November 19, 2013, the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for
the "Marina Park Project — Marina Basin Construction Including Dredging, Bulkheads,
Grading and Soil Remediation" Project:
BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT
Low Dutra Construction Company, Inc. $4,576,079.00
2 Reyes Construction, Inc. $5,922,580.00
3 Connolly- Pacific Company $6,185,231.25
4 John S. Meek Company, Inc. $6,299,595.00'
"John S. Meek Company, Inc. submitted an incomplete bid proposal, rendering its bid non- responsive.
The low bid amount is approximately 14 percent more than the Engineer's Estimate of
$4,000,000. This discrepancy appears to reflect the recent upturn in the building
construction industry which is resulting in corresponding increases of labor and material cost
as well as affording higher profit levels.
