attending the mandatory pre-bid conference. Prospective bidders MAY visit the Project Site without making arrangements through the Project Manager. Bids WILL NOT be accepted from any prequalified bidder who did not attend the Pre-Bid Conference.

Before the Contract is awarded, the successful bidder shall be a licensed contractor pursuant to

Business and Professions Code§ 7000 et seq. and shall be licensed in the following appropriate classification(s) of contractor’s license(s), for the work bid upon, and must maintain the license(s) throughout the duration of the Contract: Class B – General Building Contractor.

This project is a public work in the State of California, funded in whole or in part with public funds. The Contractor’s duty to pay State prevailing wages can be found under Labor Code

Section 1770 et seq. Labor Code sections 1775 and 1777.7 outline the penalties for failure to pay prevailing wages and to employ apprentices, including the forfeitures and debarment. The State

Wage Decision is available from the City’s Representative and is also available online at http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr/. Attention is directed to Sections 1777.5, 1777.6 and 1777.7 of the

California Labor Code and Title 8, California Administrative code, Section 200 et seq. to ensure compliance and complete understanding of the law regarding apprentices.

The City will contract with a third-party labor compliance firm to monitor and enforce the applicable provisions of the federal Davis-Bacon and Prevailing Wage Laws, including but not limited to the standard provisions requiring payment of prevailing wages, maintenance and submission of certified weekly payroll records, hiring of apprentices, and compliance and enforcement by the DIR pursuant to SB854. Contractor shall work with City staff and consultants to ensure full compliance with applicable Prevailing Wage Laws.

It shall be Bidder’s responsibility to allow sufficient time to complete and submit its bid including all required documentation referred to in the Contract Documents prior to the stated deadline.

Electronic bid submission cannot be completed unless bidder properly uploads all required documents. Each bid shall be accompanied by the security referred to in the Contract Documents, the non-collusion declaration, the list of proposed subcontractors, and all additional documentation required by the Instructions to Bidders.

Bidders are solely responsible for the “on time” submission of their electronic Bid. The City will only consider Bids from prequalified contractors that have transmitted successfully and have been issued a confirmation number with a time stamp from PlanetBids indicating that the Bid was submitted successfully. Transmission of Bids by any other means will not be accepted. Bidders shall be solely responsible for informing themselves with respect to the proper utilization of the online bid management system, for ensuring the capability of their computer system to upload the required documents, and for the stability of their internet service. Failure of the Bidder to successfully submit an electronic Bid shall be the Bidder’s sole risk and no relief will be given for late and/or improperly submitted Bids.

Bidders experiencing any technical difficulties with the bid submission process may contact Planet

Bids Support at 818-992-1771. If you continue to have difficulty, call City of Corona Purchasing

Department at 951-736-2274. Neither the City, nor PlanetBids, make any guarantee as to the timely http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr/

(UPDATED: 03-15)

availability of assistance, or assurance that any given problem will be resolved by the bid submission date and/or time.

The successful bidder will be required to furnish the City with a Performance Bond equal to 100% of the successful bid, and a Payment (Labor and Materials) Bond equal to 100% of the successful bid, prior to execution of the Contract. All bonds are to be secured from a surety that meets all of the State of California bonding requirements, as defined in Code of Civil Procedure Section

995.120, and is admitted by the State of California.

City will withhold retention in the amount of 5% of each progress payment. Pursuant to Public

Contract Code Section 22300, the successful bidder may substitute certain securities for funds withheld by City to ensure his performance under the Contract.

The Work is subject to the payment of not less than prevailing wages pursuant to Chapter 1

(beginning at Section 1770 et seq.) of Part 7 of Division 2 of the California Labor Code, as well as Title 8, Section 16000 et seq. of the California Code of Regulations (“Prevailing Wage Laws”).

The Director of the Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”) has determined the general prevailing rate of per diem wages in the locality in which this work is to be performed for each craft or type of worker needed to execute the Contract which will be awarded to the successful bidder, copies of which are on file and will be made available to any interested party upon request from the Project Manager or online at http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr. A copy of these rates shall be posted by the successful bidder at the job site.

Pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and subcontractors that wish to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a contract to perform public work must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. No bid will be accepted nor any contract entered into without proof of the contractor’s and subcontractors’ current registration with the

Department of Industrial Relations to perform public work. If awarded a Contract, the Bidder and its subcontractors, of any tier, shall maintain active registration with the Department of Industrial

Relations for the duration of the Project. The DIR registration number for each contractor and subcontractor must be identified on the bid proposal - failure to identify this number could result in the bid being rejected as non-responsive. The City will report all necessary contracts to the DIR as required by the Prevailing Wage Laws.

The successful bidder and all subcontractor(s) under him, shall comply with all applicable

Prevailing Wage Laws, which include, but are not limited to the payment of not less than the required prevailing rates to all workers employed by them in the execution of the Contract, the employment of apprentices, the hours of labor, the payment of overtime, and the debarment of contractors and subcontractors. The successful bidder and all subcontractor(s) under him shall also be responsible for any and all violations and fines imposed on them pursuant to the Prevailing

Wage Laws.

The successful bidder must fully comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations in furnishing or using equipment and/or providing services, including, but not limited to, emissions limits and permitting requirements imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District

(UPDATED: 03-15)

(SCAQMD) and/or California Air Resources Board (CARB). Although the SCAQMD and

CARB limits and requirements are more broad, the successful bidder shall specifically be aware of their application to "portable equipment", which definition is considered by SCAQMD and

CARB to include any item of equipment with a fuel-powered engine. The successful bidder will be required to indemnify City against any fines or penalties imposed by SCAQMD, CARB, or any other governmental or regulatory agency for violations of applicable laws, rules and/or regulations by the successful bidder, its subcontractors, or others for whom the successful bidder is responsible under its indemnity obligations.

CARB implemented amendments to the In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets Regulations

(“Regulation”) which are effective on January 1, 2024 and apply broadly to all self-propelled off road diesel vehicles 25 horsepower or greater and other forms of equipment used in California. A copy of the Regulation is available at:

https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/barcu/regact/2022/off-roaddiesel/appa-1.pdf. Bidders are required to comply with all CARB and Regulation requirements, including, without limitation, all applicable sections of the Regulation, as codified in Title 13 of the California Code of

Regulations section 2449 et seq. throughout the duration of the Project. Bidders must provide, with their Bid, copies of Bidder’s and all listed subcontractors’ most recent, valid Certificate of

Reported Compliance (“CRC”) issued by CARB. Failure to provide valid CRCs as required herein may render the Bid non-responsive.

Award of Contract: The City shall award the Contract for the Project to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder as determined from the base bid alone by the City. The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids or to waive any irregularities or informalities in any bids or in the bidding process.

Bids must be submitted to the City through the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system on the

Bid Forms which are a part of the Bid Package for the Project. Prospective bidders may obtain a complete set of Contract Documents at no cost through the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system. The City may also make the Contract Documents available for review at one or more plan rooms, as indicated in the Notice Inviting Bids. Please Note: Prospective bidders who choose to review the Contract Documents at a plan room must still register with the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system to obtain the required Contract Documents if they decide to submit a bid for the Project.

2. EXAMINATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

The City has made copies of the Contract Documents available, as indicated above. Bidders shall be solely responsible for examining the Project Site and the Contract Documents, including any

Addenda issued during the bidding period, and for informing itself with respect to local labor availability, means of transportation, necessity for security, laws and codes, local permit requirements, wage scales, local tax structure, contractors’ licensing requirements, availability of required insurance, and other factors that could affect the Work. Bidders are responsible for consulting the standards referenced in the Contract. Failure of Bidder to so examine and inform itself shall be at its sole risk, and no relief for error or omission will be given except as required under State law.

3. INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

Discrepancies in, and/or omissions from the Plans, Specifications or other Contract Documents or questions as to their meaning shall be immediately brought to the attention of the City by submission of a written request for an interpretation or correction to the City. Such submission, if any, must be sent through the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system:

https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/barcu/regact/2022/off-roaddiesel/appa-1.pdf utilizing the Questions & Answers tab. Questions must be submitted no later than 5:00 p.m., August 11, 2026.

Any interpretation of the Contract Documents will be made only by written addenda duly issued through the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system. The City will not be responsible for any explanations or interpretations provided in any other manner. No person is authorized to make any oral interpretation of any provision in the Contract Documents to any bidder, and no bidder should rely on any such oral interpretation.

Bids shall include complete compensation for all items that are noted in the Contract Documents as the responsibility of the Contractor.

4. INSPECTION OF SITE; PRE-BID CONFERENCE AND SITE WALK

Each prospective bidder is responsible for fully acquainting itself with the conditions of the Project

Site (which may include more than one site), as well as those relating to the construction and labor of the Project, to fully understand the facilities, difficulties and restrictions which may impact the cost or effort required to complete the Project. To this end, a Pre-Bid Conference and Site Walk will be held on the date(s) and time(s) indicated in the Notice Inviting Bids.

5. ADDENDA

The City reserves the right to revise the Contract Documents prior to the bid opening date.

Revisions, if any, shall be made by written Addenda. All addenda issued by the City shall be included in the bid and made part of the Contract Documents. Pursuant to Public Contract Code

Section 4104.5, if the City issues an Addendum which includes material changes to the Project less than 72 hours prior to the deadline for submission of bids, the City will extend the deadline for submission of bids. The City may determine, in its sole discretion, whether an Addendum warrants postponement of the bid submission date. Copies of Addenda will be posted to the City’s

PlanetBids electronic bidding system website. Each prospective bidder that has registered to receive a set of the Contract Documents will be notified by email when Addenda have been posted for the Project to the electronic bidding system. Please Note: Bidders are responsible for ensuring that they have received any and all Addenda. To this end, each bidder should contact the City’s

Finance Department, Purchasing Division, to verify that he has received all Addenda issued, if any, prior to the bid opening. Bidders shall acknowledge receipt of all Addenda by indicating in the appropriate place in the Bid that they have received all Addenda.

6. ALTERNATE BIDS

If alternate bid items are called for in the Contract Documents, the lowest bid will be determined on the basis of the base bid only. However, the City may choose to award the contract on the basis of the base bid alone or the base bid and any alternate or combination of alternates. The time required for completion of the alternate bid items has been factored into the Contract duration and no additional Contract time will be awarded for any of the alternate bid items. The City may elect to include one or more of the alternate bid items, or to otherwise remove certain work from the

Project scope of work, accordingly each Bidder must ensure that each bid item contains a proportionate share of profit, overhead and other costs or expenses which will be incurred by the

Bidder.

7. COMPLETION OF BID FORMS

Bids shall only be prepared using copies of the Bid Forms which are included in the Contract

Documents and are provided herein. The use of substitute bid forms other than clear and correct photocopies of those provided by the City will not be permitted. Bids shall be executed by an authorized signatory as described in these Instructions to Bidders. In addition, Bidders shall fill in all blank spaces (including inserting “N/A” where applicable) and initial all interlineations, alterations, or erasures to the Bid Forms. Bidders shall neither delete, modify, nor supplement the printed matter on the Bid Forms nor make substitutions thereon. Deviations in the bid form may result in the bid being deemed non-responsive.

8. MODIFICATIONS OF BIDS

Each Bidder shall submit its Bid in strict conformity with the requirements of the Contract

Documents. Unauthorized additions, modifications, revisions, conditions, limitations, exclusions or provisions attached to a Bid may render it non-responsive and may cause its rejection. Bidders shall neither delete, modify, nor supplement the printed matter on the Bid Forms, nor make substitutions thereon. Oral, telephonic and electronic modifications will not be considered, unless the Notice Inviting Bids authorizes the submission of electronic bids and modifications thereto and such modifications are made in accordance with the Notice Inviting Bids.

9. DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS; PCC 3400(C) FINDINGS

Pursuant to State law, Bidders must designate the name, location, DIR registration and contractor’s license number of each subcontractor who will perform work or render services for the Bidder in an amount that exceeds one half of one percent (1/2%) of the Bidder’s Total Bid Price, as well as the portion of work each such subcontractor will perform on the form provided herein by the City.

No additional time will be provided to bidders to submit any of the requested information in the

Designation of Subcontractor’s form. Please note that if the “PCC 3400(c)” column in the

Designation of Subcontractor’s form states “yes”, then a portion of the work described is impacted by findings made by the City that a particular material, product, thing or service must be used and has been designated by a specific brand or trade name (a copy of the applicable approved Notice

Designating Sole Source Equipment and Products Specifications is available upon request from the City). In such cases, there may be only one subcontractor qualified or authorized to perform a portion of the work described, so Bidders must take note and ensure that you list the proper subcontractor.

10. LICENSING REQUIREMENTS

Pursuant to Section 7028.15 of the Business and Professions Code and Section 3300 of the Public

Contract Code (as well as Public Contract Code Section 20103.5 when federal funds are involved), the successful bidder must possess proper licenses for performance of this Contract before the

Contract is awarded. Subcontractors must possess the appropriate licenses for each specialty subcontracted before the Contract is awarded. The City shall have the right to request, and Bidders shall provide within five (5) calendar days, evidence satisfactory to the City of all valid license(s) currently held by that Bidder and each of the Bidder’s subcontractors, before awarding the

Contract. Please also note that, pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 20676, sellers of "mined material" must be on an approved list of sellers published pursuant to Public Resources Code

Section 2717(b) in order to supply mined material for this Contract.

11. SUBCONTRACTOR EXPERIENCE MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

The City is requiring certain minimum qualifications for the Landscape Subcontractor, Aquatic

Subcontractor, and Skatepark/Pump Track Subcontractor required for the Project. The Landscape

Subcontractor must possess a valid and active California State License Board (CSLB) Class C-27

– Landscaping Contractor License. The Aquatic Subcontractor must possess a valid and active

CSLB Class C-53 – Swimming Pool Contractor License. The Skatepark/Pump Track

Subcontractor must possess a valid and active CSLB Class A General Engineering Contractor

License. The Landscape Subcontractor, Aquatic Subcontractor, and Skatepark/Pump Track

Subcontractor must also meet certain minimum experience requirements detailed in the

Subcontractor Experience Form. Bidders must complete the Subcontractor Experience Form and provide all information requested. Bidders must demonstrate that the Landscape Subcontractor, Aquatic Subcontractor, and Skatepark/Pump Track Subcontractor meet the minimum experience requirements. Failure to submit the form or provide sufficient information to demonstrate that the

Landscape Subcontractor, Aquatic Subcontractor, and the Skatepark/Pump Track Subcontractor meet the minimum experience requirements may render the bid nonresponsive. The City reserves the right to reject any Bid if an investigation of the information submitted does not satisfy the City that the subcontractors are qualified to properly carry out the terms of the Contract. If the City awards a Contract to a Bidder who lists a Landscape, Aquatic, or Skatepark/Pump Track

Subcontractor that does not meet the minimum experience requirements, the Bidder will be required to substitute the listed Subcontractor with a Subcontractor that does meet the minimum experience requirements.

12. SIGNING OF BIDS

All Bids submitted shall be executed by the Bidder or its authorized representative. Bidders may be asked to provide evidence in the form of an authenticated resolution of its Board of Directors or a Power of Attorney evidencing the capacity of the person signing the Bid to bind the Bidder to each Bid and to any Contract arising therefrom.

If a Bidder is a joint venture or partnership, it may be asked to submit an authenticated Power of

Attorney executed by each joint venturer or partner appointing and designating one of the joint venturers or partners as a management sponsor to execute the Bid on behalf of Bidder. Only that joint venturer or partner shall execute the Bid. The Power of Attorney shall also: (1) authorize that particular joint venturer or partner to act for and bind Bidder in all matters relating to the Bid; and

(2) provide that each venturer or partner shall be jointly and severally liable for any and all of the duties and obligations of Bidder assumed under the Bid and under any Contract arising therefrom.

The Bid shall be executed by the designated joint venturer or partner on behalf of the joint venture or partnership in its legal name.

13. BID GUARANTEE (BOND)

Each bid shall be accompanied by: (a) cash; (b) a certified check made payable to the City; (c) a cashier’s check made payable to the City; or (d) a bid bond payable to the City executed by the bidder as principal and surety as obligor in an amount not less than 10% of the maximum amount of the bid. Personal sureties and unregistered surety companies are unacceptable. The surety insurer shall be California admitted surety insurer, as defined in Code of Civil Procedure Section

995.120. The cash, check or bid bond shall be given as a guarantee that the bidder shall execute the Contract if it be awarded to the bidder, shall provide the payment and performance bonds and insurance certificates and endorsements as required herein within ten (10) calendar days after notification of the award of the Contract to the bidder. Failure to provide the required documents may result in forfeiture of the bidder’s bid deposit or bond to the City and the City may award the

Contract to the next lowest responsive, responsible bidder, or may call for new bids.

The bid security must be submitted in hard copy directly to the City and shall be delivered to the

City’s Finance Department – Purchasing Division office, 400 South Vicentia Ave., Suite 320, Corona, CA 92882 prior to the bid closing date and time specified in the Notice Inviting Bids.

If Bidder elects to provide the required bid security in the form of a bid bond, the original hard copy bid bond must be submitted to the City at the address indicated above prior to the specified date and time for bid opening. The City must receive an original bid bond and therefore it should not be included in the PlanetBids upload.

An electronic bid not accompanied by (a) cash; (b) certified check made payable to the City; (c) or cashier’s check made payable to the City; or (d) an acceptable bid bond payable to the City, submitted in hard copy to the City may be rejected.

14. SUBMISSION OF SEALED BIDS

All Bids must be submitted at the time and place and in the manner set forth in the Notice Inviting

Bids. Bids must be made on the bid forms set forth herein. If the Notice Inviting Bids requires the use of the electronic bidding system, pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 1600 and 1601, Bids must be made on the bid forms provided therein.

City reserves the right to not accept electronically transmitted bids where not specifically authorized in the Notice Inviting Bids, and may reject any bid not strictly complying with City’s designated methods for delivery

15. DELIVERY AND OPENING OF BIDS

Bids will be received by the City in the manner set forth in the Notice Inviting Bids up to the date and time shown therein. It is the Bidder’s sole responsibility to ensure that its Bid is received as specified. Bids may be submitted earlier than the dates(s) and time(s) indicated.

Bid results will be posted to the City’s PlanetBids electronic bidding system no earlier than the close of bid. The City may in its sole discretion, elect to postpone the opening of the submitted

Bids. City reserves the right to reject any or all Bids and to waive any informality or irregularity in any Bid. The Bid shall state the unit prices, the total amount of each bid item and the Total Bid

Price for which the Bidder proposes to complete the work as specified by the Contract Documents, including but not limited to labor, materials and goods. If the unit price and the total amount stated by a Bidder for any item do not agree, the unit price alone shall be considered as representing

Bidder’s intention, and the total price for that item shall be corrected by the City to conform thereto.

16. WITHDRAWAL OF BID

Electronic bids may be withdrawn prior to the date and time set forth in the Notice Inviting Bids.

If hard copy bids are authorized by the City, a Bid may be withdrawn by the Bidder prior to bid opening only by means of a written request signed by the Bidder or its properly authorized representative.

17. RELIEF FROM THE BID DUE TO A MISTAKE

Pursuant to Sections 5100 through 5107 of the Public Contract Code, a Bidder may be relieved of its bid by the City.

Pursuant to Section 5103 of the Public Contract Code, the Bidder shall establish to the satisfaction of the City that:

A. A mistake was made.

B. The Bidder gave the City written notice of the mistake within 5 days after the date of the

Bid opening specifying in detail how the mistake occurred.

C. The mistake made the Bid materially different than the Bidder intended it to be.

D. The mistake was made in filling out the Bid and not due to error in judgment or to carelessness in inspecting the Work site, or in reading the Plans and Specifications.

Pursuant to Section 5105 of the Public Contract Code, a Bidder who claims a mistake shall be prohibited from participating in further bidding on the Contract on which the mistake was claimed.

18. BASIS OF AWARD; BALANCED BIDS

The City shall award the Contract to the lowest responsive, responsible Bidder submitting a responsive Bid. The City may reject any Bid which, in its opinion when compared to other bids received or to the City’s internal estimates, does not accurately reflect the cost to perform the

Work. The City may reject as non-responsive any bid which unevenly weights or allocates costs, including but not limited to overhead and profit to one or more particular bid items.

19. DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS; INTEREST IN MORE THAN ONE BID

No bidder shall be allowed to make, submit or be interested in more than one bid. However, a person, firm, corporation or other entity that has submitted a subproposal to a bidder, or that has quoted prices of materials to a bidder, is not thereby disqualified from submitting a subproposal or quoting prices to other bidders submitting a bid to the City. No person, firm, corporation, or other entity may submit a subproposal to a bidder, or quote prices of materials to a bidder, when also submitting a prime bid on the same Project.

20. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

The successful bidder shall procure the insurance in the form and in the amount specified in the

Contract Documents.

21. AWARD PROCESS

Once all Bids are opened and reviewed to determine the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder, the City Council may award the contract. The apparent successful Bidder should begin to prepare the following documents: (1) the Performance Bond; (2) the Payment (Labor and Materials) Bond;

and (3) the required insurance certificates and endorsements. Once the City notifies the Bidder of the award, the Bidder will have ten (10) consecutive calendar days from the date of this notification to execute the Contract and supply the City with all of the required documents and certifications.

Regardless of whether the Bidder supplies the required documents and certifications in a timely manner, the Contract time will begin to run ten (10) calendar days from the date of the notification.

Once the City receives all of the properly drafted and executed documents and certifications from the Bidder, the City shall issue a Notice to Proceed to that Bidder.

22. FILING OF BID PROTESTS

Bidders may file a “protest” of a Bid with the City’s Deputy Director of Finance. In order for a

Bidder’s protest to be considered valid, the protest must:

Deputy Director of Finance to the Finance Director.

23. WORKERS COMPENSATION

Each bidder shall submit the Contractor’s Certificate Regarding Workers’ Compensation form.

24. SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITY

The Contract Documents call for monthly progress payments based upon the percentage of the work completed. The City will retain five percent (5%) of each progress payment as provided by the Contract Documents, unless the City has made a determination that the work included in this

Contract is substantially complex, and therefore a retention of 10% will be withheld from each progress payment pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 7201. At the request and expense of the successful Bidder, the City will substitute securities for the amount so retained in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22300. City expenses for administration of the Escrow

Agreement shall be billed quarterly to the Contractor pursuant to the City’s current Fee Recovery

Schedule effective October 17, 2024:

Set up fees (one time only) $350.00

Monthly maintenance fee $95.00

25. PREVAILING WAGES

Refer to the Notice Inviting Bids and Article 8 of the Contract for Prevailing Wage requirements.

26. DEBARMENT OF CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS

In accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, contractors or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Section 1777.1 or Section 1777.7 of the Labor Code. Any contract on a public works project entered into between a contractor and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any public money that is paid to a debarred subcontractor by the Contractor for the Project shall be returned to the City. The Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Project.

27. PERFORMANCE BOND AND PAYMENT (LABOR AND MATERIALS) BOND

REQUIREMENTS

Within the time specified in the Contract Documents, the Bidder to whom a Contract is awarded shall deliver to the City the Performance Bond and Payment (Labor and Materials) Bond in the form supplied by the City and included in the Contract Documents. Failure to do so may, in the sole discretion of City, result in the forfeiture of the Bid Guarantee. The surety supplying the bond must be an admitted surety insurer, as defined in Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.120, authorized to do business as such in the State of California and satisfactory to the City. The

Performance Bond and the Payment (Labor and Materials) Bond shall be for one hundred percent

(100%) of the Total Bid Price. The City does not require original, embossed corporate seals on any bonds. However, the City reserves the right at any time to demand an original bond with an embossed corporate seal, and Contractor shall supply such bond within seven (7) calendar days of any such request.

28. REQUEST FOR SUBSTITUTIONS

The successful bidder shall comply with the substitution request provisions set forth in the Special

Conditions, including any deadlines for substitution requests which may occur prior to the bid opening date.

29. SALES AND OTHER APPLICABLE TAXES, PERMITS, LICENSES AND FEES

Contractor and its subcontractors performing work under this Contract will be required to pay

California sales tax and other applicable taxes, and to pay for permits, licenses and fees required by the agencies with authority in the jurisdiction in which the work will be located, unless otherwise expressly provided by the Contract Documents.

30. EXECUTION OF CONTRACT

As required herein the Bidder to whom an award is made shall execute the Contract in the amount determined by the Contract Documents. The City may require appropriate evidence that the persons executing the Contract are duly empowered to do so.

31. SAFETY REQUIREMENTS/VIOLATIONS

Safety at the Project site during performance of the work is of paramount concern to the City.

Accordingly, bidders must not have committed any serious violations within the last two (2) years or any willful violations within the last five (5) years of federal or state OSHA regulations. Bidders must identify the number of OSHA violations on the Information Required of Bidders page. Any serious or willful violation falling within the timeframes noted above may render a bid as non-responsive. We strongly encourage full disclosure, since failure to identify all violations on the

Information Required of Bidders page may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive or the bidder as non-responsible following a hearing. A citation properly appealed through OSHA is not considered to be a violation until the matter is closed and considered final by OSHA. The City still expects this information to be disclosed by the bidder, with an explanation and documentation showing that the matter is properly under appeal with OSHA and not considered closed or final.

Failure to be forthcoming with this information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive.

32. IRAN CONTRACTING ACT

Pursuant to the Iran Contracting Act of 2010 (public contract code 2200-2208), vendors/bidders are ineligible to bid on or submit a proposal for any contract with a public entity for goods or services of one million dollars ($1,000,000) or more if the vendor/bidder engages in investment activities in Iran. For bids $1,000,000 or more, bidders must certify that it is not on the list of ineligible vendors prohibited from doing business with the state of California and shall complete the Iran contracting act certification form and submit with their bid. Failure to do so may deem contractor’s bid non-responsive.

33. FLEET COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATION

The City is a Public Works Awarding Body, as defined under Title 13 California Code of

Regulations section 2449(c)(46). Accordingly, Bidders must submit, with their Bids, valid

Certificates of Reported Compliance (“CRC”) for the Bidder’s fleet and for the fleet(s) of its listed subcontractors (including any applicable leased equipment or vehicles). Bidder must additionally complete and submit the Fleet Compliance Certification, included in the Bid Documents. Failure to provide a CRC for the Bidder, and for all listed subcontractors, or failure to complete the Fleet

Compliance Certification, may render the bid non-responsive.
