Only one bid for Well #6 rehab exceeds estimate; district plans to rebid
Summary
An engineer's estimate for Well #6 rehabilitation was $150,000 but only one bid of $228,000 was received; staff said the district will rebid the project this month to seek additional bidders.
The rehabilitation of Well #6 drew staff attention after bids exceeded the engineer's estimate. General Manager Catherine Cerri told the Committee that the project was bid with an estimate of $150,000 but only one bid arrived at $228,000. Because the single bid materially exceeded the estimate, staff will put the project out to rebid this month to seek competitive responses.
No formal motion to award the contract was recorded in the Executive Committee minutes; the action recorded is a staff decision to rebid and return results to the Board for consideration.
