Staff reviewed the submitted bids and found the bid from Onyx Paving Company Inc. (Onyx) to be the lowest and most responsive bid. Onyx's bid in the amount of $722,000 was slightly lower than the engineer's estimate of $735,000. Onyx recently completed a similar project for the City of La Habra and their work was found to be satisfactory. In addition, Onyx has completed similar projects for the cities of Anaheim, Downey, and Desert Hot Springs. Staff found no record of excessive change order requests by Onyx, and they currently maintain a valid Contractor's License.

There are sufficient budgeted funds available to cover the construction costs, inspection services, and material testing expenses associated with this project; therefore, no additional appropriation is requested at this time.
