Pasco awards $806,949 contract for Gesa Stadium pitching and hitting tunnels Phase 1C
Summary
The Pasco City Council unanimously approved Resolution No. 4648 to award Bid No. 24620 — $806,949 — to G2 Commercial Construction Inc. for Phase 1C improvements to Gesa Stadium’s pitching and hitting tunnels, with a tight timeline to finish before next season.
The Pasco City Council voted unanimously at a special meeting to award a $806,949 construction contract to G2 Commercial Construction Inc. for Phase 1C improvements to Gesa Stadium’s pitching and hitting tunnels. Councilman Peralez moved approval and Councilwoman Barajas seconded the motion; the council announced the motion passed unanimously.
The award implements Resolution No. 4648 and Bid No. 24620 for “MLB required improvements” at Gesa Stadium, the city’s staff presenter said. Director Maria told the council the project received seven bids, one of which was deemed nonresponsive, and that the lowest responsive bidder was G2 Commercial Construction Inc. for $806,949. "We are working against a very tight timeline on this project," Director Maria said.
The nut graph: the contract funds construction work on pitching and hitting tunnels at Gesa Stadium and must be completed before the next season, making the timeline the meeting’s central operational concern.
Background and council action: Director Maria said the project had been advertised earlier in the year; at that time only one bid was received and it exceeded available budget and was rejected. The city re-advertised the work, received seven bids on the second solicitation, and selected the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. Maria said the selected bid “fits within the allocated funds.” The council took no public comment on the item before moving to a vote.
Motion and vote: Councilman Peralez moved to approve Resolution No. 4648, awarding Bid No. 24620 for MLB-required improvements at Gesa Stadium pitching and hitting tunnels Phase 1C to G2 Commercial Construction Inc.; Councilwoman Barajas seconded. The council recorded the motion as approved unanimously.
What the decision does and what remains: The action authorizes the city to proceed with the Phase 1C contract with G2 Commercial Construction Inc. The meeting record does not specify the funding sources beyond the statement that the bid fits within allocated funds, and it does not list a construction start date or a contract effective date. Director Maria emphasized the time constraint for completing work before the upcoming season.
Officials and attribution: The project presentation and budget context were provided by Director Maria (staff). The motion was made by Councilman Peralez and seconded by Councilwoman Barajas. The council’s approval was announced as unanimous.
