HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - May 15, 2002 E-05AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Rejecting Proposals for the Purchase and Removal of Houses
Located on the Site of the Future Police Building
MEETING DATE: May 15, 2002
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution rejecting proposals for the purchase
and removal of houses located on the site of the future Police Building.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In January, City Council authorized the City Manager to issue
Request for Proposals (RFP's) for removal of the houses located on
the proposed new Police Facility site. RFP's were sent to all house
moving contractors listed in the Lodi and Stockton phonebooks and
advertised in the Lodi News Sentinel. By 5 p.m. April 26, 2002, the last date proposals could be
received by the City, only two proposals and an informal correspondence had been received. Neither of
the proposals met the requirements by showing the intended route from the site to the street, the
licensed moving contractor, etc., and one proposal was not signed. Neither of the proposals nor the
informal letter pay the City for the houses, rather they would charge the City.
Staff is recommending that City Council reject the two proposals. Staff proposes that we suggest to the
interested parties that they negotiate with the New Police Building bidders and final contractor for their
removal once the contract for the New Police Building has been awarded. This will take the City out of
any potential scheduling and coordination issues that will likely arise.
FUNDING: None at this time.
