Statement of Issue:
On April 7, 2025, the City of Huntington Beach publicly opened bids for the Police Department Women's Locker Room Improvement Project. Shortly thereafter, on April 11, 2025, a formal bid protest was submitted to the Public Works Department. Following a thorough investigation, it was determined that the bids in question did not meet the required contract specifications. In light of these findings, City Council action is requested to award the construction contract to Full Swing Construction Inc., identified as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
Financial Impact:
The estimated project cost is $1,319,372, which includes the construction contract with Full Swing Construction Inc., and a 20% construction contingency. The project budget $1,319,372 consists of Infrastructure Funds from Account No. 31440010.
