BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Council approved the original specifications and authorized the advertisement for bids on April 1, 2015. This project included the continued maintenance of landscaped areas in the public right-of- way, public buildings, parking lots, White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, various landscape assessment zones; and the Lodi Transit Station and Parking Structure. The Transit Station and Parking Structure are operated in part with federal funding and accounted for approximately 0.8% of the total area of landscaping being maintained in the original project. Including the federally funded areas in the original project scope inadvertently applied federal wage rate requirements to the entire project, drastically increasing the project cost. The City received the following three bids April 29, 2015: Bidder Location Proposal Engineer's Estimate $197,307.00 * New Image Landscape Company Fremont $193,712.00 * Dominguez Landscape Sacramento $206,487.92 ** Marina Landscape Maintenance Livermore $695,240.00 Note " Did not utilize the Federal Wage Rates "' Non -Responsive, did not submit the Receipt of Addendum No. 1 or the Receipt of Addendum No. 2, but utilized the Federal Wage Rates Staff has separated the project into two different projects. The first project keeps the original title and includes all of the non -federally funded locations (approximately 1,930,000 square feet). The second project is titled 2015-2016 Transit Station Landscape Maintenance and includes the Lodi Transit Station and the Parking Structure (approximately 15,500 square feet). The federal wage rates apply to the second project only. The two projects will be bid and contracted separately upon approval of this Council Action.
