Seconded by Commissioner McClanahan and carried by the vote of the Commission as follows: Mayor Smith Aye Commissioner Eckstein Aye Commissioner Thomas Aye Commissioner McClanahan Aye Said verbatim discussion is, as follows: Mayor: Discussion regarding the Water Reclamation Facility Expansion Contract. City Manager: Yes, Mayor - We have some gentlemen here from ah, to - to hear what we have to say about that. Ah - Mayor, um, what we have here. We opened bids sometime ago, and we received six or seven - ah - on that - ah - the low bidder - ah - provided information regarding his specific minority business enterprises, however, he did not provide any information, as required in the specification, to be provided at bid time relative to the efforts to which he had gone to solicit this particular - ah - this particular participation. Ah - the qualification of the particular MBE, which was very large on this particular contract, was challenged by the second low bidder - ah - represented by some of the gentlemen here today, on the basis that - that it was not certified. Ah - in fact, he was only certified a number Of years ago in - ah. Mayor: You're talking about the highest bidder now. City Manager: No - this is - the, the low bidder Mayor: I mean the low bidder. City Manager: The sub-contractor for the low bidder - the minority business. Ah - DER's policy has been that they in the past have taken - ah - certifications, assumed certifications to be valid until they have reason to do otherwise, ah - in this case, a challenge is viewed by DER as reason to do otherwise. They're looking for a new certification - ah - or valid current certification, if One's available. Ah - we gave Koblar, who was the low bidder, until the 21st of this month to come forward with a certification. He has not done so. It is the attorney - the opinion of the attorney, that the way our specification is written, that no substitution can be allowed in this case because none of that information was provided at the time of bidding. So, we have Koblar, essentially - Incidentally, FDER has said that they will not. approve a tentative award to the low bidder absent a proper MBE certification. So, there's our situation relative to low bidder. Ah - the - ah - second lowest bidder, Adams Robinson, who challenged the -ah - low bidder is - ah - here today. Ah - we've had conversations between attorneys on this, and - ah - ah - our attorney has made - has made some recommendations relative to the two alternatives that we have before us. I just discarded one of those. The two alternatives that we appear to have before us - one would be to award to the second low bidder. Ah - the second low bid is approximately 13% higher than the engineer's estimate. Ah - the other alternative, which I believe we have open to us, is to reject all bids and to go again. Ah - so - these - this is what - what we have right now, at this point in time. Ah - in conversations with the ah - or actually by letter, from the attorney for Adams Robinson., there has been a request to be allowed to speak to the 19 2 4 8 MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida Janua~ 27 19 92 Commission, and - ah - while this a work session, it is not mandatory, I would recommend you - you give these gentlemen a specified period of time to - to say whatever they would like to say. Mayor: (unable to understand) people here to talk (unable to understand) for both City Manager: Everybody's here from Robinson. here from Koblar. We don't have anyone Mayor: Okay. Mr. Colbert or Ms. McIntosh - do you have any suggestions. City Attorney: You can - ah - if you choose - ah - to give them a time certain, three to five minutes, to state their position. I think Ms. McIntosh and I would like, at some point, just to - to - summarize your legal position. Mayor: Since our time is running out - if you could please summarize in about three minutes. Are you Mr. Kornreich? Mr. Adams: No, I'm Mr. Adams. I'm President of Adams Robinson Mayor: Mr. Adams: Okay - I had Kornreich Was - he's our attorney, and - ah - he has had close contact with I believe your City Manager: (unable to understand - two people talking at the same time) Mr. Adams: First of all, thank you for your time. Com. Eckstein: He's our attorney too. City Manager: No - different - different one. Mr. Adams: Thank you for your time. You are not in a very good position, not an enviable position you find yourselves. Two quick points: %1 The first set of instructions to your - to any .bidding group, is -are - the bidding instructions, and they've not been followed. Ah - we listed a local minority business firm -ah - Willoby Wilson - ah - and Company ,they're local to Sanford. We stated they - ah - what they were going to be doing. We complied 100% apart in - with the bid request. Ah -%2 There is a signal that is sent out to the bidding community, and this is the perspective I want to get to, that's very important - ah - that you don't consider. You're a public body - ah - this is not going to be the last public work that you - you have to do. Ah - %1 If - if a - if a job is rebid, you're going to give the low bidder, who clearly did not conform, or did not even try to conform with your specifications, another opportunity - two bites at the apple. And - and there's a walk away theory in our industry that says - I'm not saying this is the case, but - but this allows for a situation where a contractor can come in. He can low ball a job. And I don't look at it as we are 13% high. Ah - he was 13% low, and my - ourselves and the next two or three contractors, run a very tight shot pattern, if you will, as they say, and - and - and the market has spOken as to where the price of this job should be. Ah - if the job is rebid, the low bidder clearly, at this point, can walk away without supplying the information. He will not lose his bid bond, and he can clearly come back for a second day, having tested the waters of where this job is going to bid, and in all probability his price is going to go up. Our price is not going to come down. It's a tight job. The market's tight. The competition is very keen, and - and you're really giving the low bidder a second bite at the proverbial contracting apple. In - in public works contracting - ah - that's a signal to everyone else out there, even the people who are not bidding this job, to say that the City of Sanford will entertain potentially - ah - a low bid. Throw it out, and then rebid it, and this sets the stage for - ah - eventual problems in the bidding process. Ah - this is the only kind of work that we do. We are a general mechanical contractor. We specialize in waste water treatment plants. We were contractor of the year in 1989 (unable to understand) the City of Apopka's project for the American Boiler Works Association. Ah - We know our business, and we've been in it for a long time, and worked in a number of states. Ah - I'm here to give you this perspective of a problem that came from about -- that's above and beyond the normal discussion of do we bid, or do we give to the second bidder, or do we give to the low bidder. So - basically, this iS~what I wanted to MINUTES City Commission, Sanford, Florida January 27 249 19 92_ Mayor: City Attorney: Com Eckstein: City Manager: Mayor: City Manager: Mayor: City Manager: share with you tonight. Ah - an -ah - I'm really hear to answer any questions. Thank you sir. We appreciate that. any questions. Okay - Mr. Colbert Anybody else have Okay. This is the night for the tough decisions it seems. Ah - there was a bid package. There were a number of bids that responded to it. Ah - I believe the bids about $3,000,000.00 and 3,300,000.00 is a pretty good spread between the top and the second one. They both appear to be good companies. They're ably represented by counsel. We've had discussion with both of them. Both counsel are 'arguing their client's position, and they're doing it Very well. As we've gone through it, and Ms. McIntosh has worked on some of the details of it, and may want to add to what I say. And we've gone through it, and we believe the circumstances the way they come - ah - that Koblar's bid, as it stands right now, is non- responsive, and - and - ah - because it is non-responsive, we believe it should be rejected by the City. You then have the choice of - of going to the second bid or not, and asking for re-bidding. If you go to the second bid, as Mr. Simmons has already pointed out, you're over the engineer's estimate, and - and - ah - we've - we've had good service by the engineers, and - ah - they've been on target on a lot of the estimates. Ah -I'm not sure what Mr. Adams has said will be a fact. I understand what he's saying. I, I understand that it can occur that way. It would seem to me that if the City chose to reject all bids, it could ask the staff to go back through the specifications, and see if there are some things that can be bid alternatively, and - ah - and that way you could -ah - you coUld see what the bids are when they come back. And if - if there is no change. And if you are overbid -then maybe something that you would - that you would be able to - to delete from it, and stay within your budget, or could - ah - elect not to. The - the second bid. Mr. Adams' bid is over budget, and I think that's a valid reason that the City could decide to reject all bids, and if you chose to reject all bids, of the three alternatives, that is probably the easier one for us to defend, if somebody wants to challenge it. I'm kinda trying to give you a little bit of a practical and little bit of a legal perspective on it. This is the file, and Ms. McIntosh can answer some technical questions. It has been a very technical thing, and we've been looking at it for some several weeks. And I can't tell you that one is the absolute best decision that you can make, but I - I think ~ ah -leaning toward rejecting all bids unless - unless you decide, as a policy, to do otherwise. Ah - Another practical matter, which leads - leads me to your conclusion is - we're talking about $400,000.00 - talking about $400,000.000 - putting it out for rebid. We could potentially save less than that. I mean ah A comment I would make is I - I certainly agree with Mr. Colbert's position of going back looking for things that we can list as either deductive or additive bid items. Really looking hard to see if there are some things that ~we can squeeze. Much of what is in this particular contract, which actually has caused considerable growth from the original estimate of this contract, it's grown almost 1 million dollars, has been things, which FDER has mandated go in there, up to and including, an elevator. Don't you love it. So - ah - there are a whole lot of things like that in there. (unable to understand - two people speaking at same time) Whether or not we can work some of those or not - we're basically about 1 million dollars over our state revolving fund loan on this, and two other projects. Mayor: Thank you very much. Um - this is on the Agenda, Item 11. 2 5 0 City Commission, Sanford, Florida January 27 19 92 Addendum No. 5, to Contract with Solin and Associates, as discussed at tonight's Work Session.
