Public Works Director Bob Murdoch stated the FCC communication raised labor non- compliance issues regarding Central Valley but provided no specific examples. The City had reached out to the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) to receive information direct from that agency regarding the nature and disposition of complaints against Central Valley. Central Valley provided disclosures in their pre- qualification packet related to apprenticeships and prevailing wage = those disclosures deducted points from their application, but Central Valley still scored enough points to pre-qualify to bid on City contracts. DIR estimated a timeframe of 10 days to return responsive records, at this time City staff only had as reference what Central Valley self- reported, and staff were awaiting further details from DIR. Mr. Murdoch noted the bid award decision could be delayed, but a longer delay could cause the resurfacing City Attorney Jonathan Hobbs noted the issues raised could relate as to whether the contractor was non-responsible (not having the ability to perform the work).

He reviewed that Central Valley was the lowest responsive, responsible bidder based on information to date, but if new information came forward, the City would provide the contractor the opportunity to address such information. Mr. Hobbs stated staff would prefer time to confirm if the information provided to date matched the Motion: M/S Ly/Suen to continue Item 8.6 to the regular meeting of May 22, 2019.
