("Dash"). Dash, a general contractor, bid this project on July 2, 2024, and should be deemed the low bidder on the above - referenced Project. The purpose of this letter is to formally protest awarding the Project to LCR Earthwork & Engineering, Corp. ("LCR") whose bid was non -responsive. In addition, Dash requests the following: That this letter serve as a protest against the award of the above contract to anyone other than Dash. Mailed notice of all meetings of the awarding authority at which any issues pertaining to the award to the contract are on the agenda for meeting pursuant to Gov. Code § 54954.1 3. That Dash be informed by telephone or fax or email as soon as any staff reports or recommendations concerning any issues pertaining to the award of the contract are available to the public, so that we can immediately inspect those reports or recommendations. 4. The ability to address the awarding authority before or during consideration of any issues pertaining to the award of the contract pursuant to Gov. Code § 54954.3(a). For the reasons stated below, the LCR bid is not responsive and must be rejected according to California law. LEGAL AUTHORITIES Before addressing the arguments raised by Dash below, a correct understanding of the law as it applies to Bid Protests is an important first step. California law mandates that a public entity must competitively bid public works contracts and award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder that submits a responsive bid. MCM Construction, Inc. v. City and County of San Francisco (1998) 66 Cal.App.4th 359, 368. To be responsive, a bid must conform to the material terms of the Instructions. See Menefee v. County of Fresno (1985) 163 Cal.App.3d 1175. A bid that varies materially from the specifications must be rejected. Stimson v. Hanley (1907) 151 Cal. 379. The material terms of a bid are (1) those that affect price, quantity, quality, or delivery and (2) those terms that the bid package clearly identifies as mandatory. Id. A bid fails to comply materially with the bid package if it gives the bidder a substantial economic advantage or benefit not enjoyed by other bidders. Menefee v. County of Fresno (1985) 163 Cal.App.3d 1175. In other words, if a bid is not responsive, it cannot be accepted. ARGUMENT For the following reasons, the City should award the Project contract to Dash, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. I. LCR's Bid Failed to Fulfill a Mandatory Requirement Addendum No. 1 explicitly states that "[a]s evidence that the BIDDER has read this Addendum, the BIDDER must acknowledge same in the space provided below and submit this Addendum with the Proposal. Failure to provide such acknowledgment shall render the proposal as non -responsive and subject to rejection." (emphasis added). Here, LCR failed to submit the acknowledgment of the Addendum ("Acknowledgement") with its Proposal. A copy of LCR's proposal is attached as Exhibit "A." The language of the Addendum referenced above makes it clear that LCR's failure to submit the Acknowledgment is a material variance. The failure to submit the Addendum and acknowledge it allowed LCR the ability to withdraw its bid. This gives LCR an economic advantage not enjoyed by others and makes an award to LCR illegal. Therefore, the City (1) cannot waive the material variance, and (2) must reject LCR's bid for non -responsiveness. In fact, the City is required by law to reject LCR's non -responsive bid and award the Project to Dash, the lowest responsive bidder. The City will be in violation of California law should it proceed with awarding the Project to LCR. SUMMARY The bid of LCR is non -responsive and must be rejected due to the fatal errors in its Bid. However, Dash's bid was fully responsive to the bid invitation; and Dash is a responsible contractor. Therefore, the City must deem the bid of LCR as non -responsive, and award the Project to Dash. Very Truly Yours, John Paul Cosico, Esq. for FELDMAN & ASSOCIATES, INC. Cc: Client Mark A. Feldman, Esq. EXHIBIT A PROPOSAL FOR THE FY 24/25 PAVEMENT REHABILITATION PROJECT PROJECT NO.: PW 24-08 Date July 2 2024 Company Name: LCR Earthwork & Engineedng Corp TO THE CITY OF EL SEGUNDO: , In accordance with the City of El Segundo's Notice Inviting Sealed Bids, the undersigned BIDDER hereby proposes to furnish all materials, equipment, tools, labor, and incidentals required for the above stated project as set forth in the Plans, Specifications, and contract documents therefor, and to perform all work in the manner and time prescribed therein.

If this proposal is accepted for award, BIDDER agrees to enter into a contract with the City of El Segundo at the unit and/or lump sum prices set forth in the following Bid Schedule. BIDDER understands that failure to enter into a contract in the manner and time prescribed will result in forfeiture to the City of El Segundo of the proposal guarantee accompanying this proposal. BIDDER understands that a bid is required for the entire work, that the estimated quantities set forth in the Bid Schedule are solely for the purpose of comparing bids, and that final compensation under the contract will be based upon the actual quantities of work satisfactorily completed.

It is agreed that the unit and/or lump sum prices bid include all apparent expenses, taxes, royalties, and fees.

If awarded the Contract, the undersigned further agrees that in the event of the BIDDER'S default in executing the required contract and filing the necessary bonds and insurance certificates within ten working days after the date of the City of El Segundo's notice of award of contract to the BIDDER, including sending by U.S. Mail a Public Works Contract for signature by the Awardee, the proceeds of the security accompanying this bid shall become the property of the City of El Segundo and this bid and the acceptance hereof may, at the City of El Segundo's option, be considered null and void. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMPLIANCE BIDDER certifies that in all previous contracts or subcontracts, all reports which may have been due under the requirements of any agency, State, or Federal equal employment opportunity orders have been satisfactorily filed, and that no such reports are currently outstanding. AFFIRINIATIVE ACTION CERTIFICATION BIDDER certifies that affirmative action has been taken to seek out and consider minority business enterprises for those portions of the work to be subcontracted, and that such affirmative actions have been fully documented, that said documentation is open to inspection, and that said affirmative action will remain in effect for the life of any contract awarded hereunder. Furthermore, BIDDER certifies that affirmative action will be taken to meet all equal employment opportunity requirements of the contract documents. NONCOLLUSION AFFIDAVIT BIDDER declares that the only persons or parties interested in this proposal as principals are those named herein: that no officer, agent, or employee of the City of El Segundo is personally interested, directly or indirectly, in this proposal; that this proposal is made without connection to any other individual, firm, or corporation making a bid for the same work and that this proposal is in all respects fair and without collusion or fraud.

To be awarded this contract, the successful bidder must procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below: Tyne of Insurance Limits Commercial general liability: $2,000,000 Business automobile liability: $1,000,000 Workers compensation: Statutory requirement Commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of ISO-CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above must be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies must be endorsed to name the City, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by the City will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 10 1185 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance must be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City. Insurer will agree in writing to waive all rights of subrogation against the City, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by Contractor for the City. Automobile coverage must be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 0106 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto). The Consultant must furnish to the City duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement, endorsements as required herein, and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by the City from time to time. Insurance must be placed with admitted insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Raring equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII." Certificate(s) must reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage. The Consultant will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word "endeavor" with regard to any notice provisions. The City requires California Worker's Compensation Coverage with the associated Waiver. Out-of- state coverage will not be accepted in lieu of the California coverage, because the work is being performed in the State of California. By signing this form, the bidder certifies that it has read, understands, and will comply with these insurance requirements if it is selected as the City's consultant. Failure to provide this insurance will render the bidder's proposal "nonresponsive." 7/2/24 Date I-C-18 END PROPOSAL SECTION I-C-19
