The Mayor pro tem announced that this was the time and place heretofore fixed for the opening of bids, pursuant to Notice Inviting Bids for the Con- struction of the El Segundo City Hall, Police Station and Site Improvements for the City of El Segundo, and inquired of the City Clerk if she had re- ceived any bids therefor. The City Clerk advised that she had ten bids in her possession, and it was thereupon moved by Councilman Baker, seconded by Councilman Gordon, the Council proceed to open, examine and publicly declare said bids. Carried. Bids from the following were then publicly opened, examined and declared: Baruch Corporation The Contracting Engineers Co. R. J. Daum Construction Company M. E. Didier Driver Construction Co. W. E. Kier Construction Co. Harvey A. Nichols Co. Ruane Corporation Mayfair Construction Co. A bid was then opened from Carter -Mack Builders, Inc., and before declara- tion of same, the City Clerk announced that the bidderts bond accompanying said bid was for the amount of 5% of the bid only and not 10% as called for in the Notice to Bidders. The City Attorney then read to the Council for its information Sections 37931 and 37932 of the Government Code of the State of California, which pro- vides that in 6th Class Cities (which is the classification of the City of E1 Segundo) that all bids on public works must be accompanied by a certain form of bidderts.security, and that such security shall be in an amount equal to at least 10% of the amount bid. Following the reading of the above mentioned sections, the City Attorney gave his opinion that inasmuch as the bid is not accompanied by a bid deposit in the proper amount, that said bid should not be considered.-and therefore, should not be declared. It was thereupon moved by Councilman Gordon, seconded by Councilman Baker, the following resolution be adopted: WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Sections 37931 and 37932 of the Government Code of the State of California, bid security is required in an amount equal to at least 10% of the amount bid; and -2- 1. ylf 321 WHEREAS, the bid submitted by Carter -Mack Builders, Inc. is not accompanied by the required bid deposit; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the said bid of Carter -Mack Builders, Inc. shall not be considered.

At this no_i_n`. 11r. Ferbert J. Powell, representing the architects, inquired of the representative of R. J. Daum Construction Company, the apparent low bidder on the proposed City Hall and Police Station con- struction, whether he desired to check the figures submitted in said Company's bid. The City Attorney, at this time, stated that in view of Mr. Powell's suggestion that the apparent low bidder, R. J. Daum Construction Company, check over its figures, indicated there might be a possibility that an error may have been involved in the figures submitted. He stated that while the ordinary rule was that a bidder tendering a bid would be held to it, never- theless, if it could be shown that there was a palpable error substantial in nature and of such amount;or character as to make it unconscionable to re- quire the bidder to proceed under the bid, the matter could be considered by the City Council before making its award. He cautioned further, however, that if there were an;;% er »e `-, it s oul d be c-JLsc Losea at the �arli -st pos sro moment to the architects, and from the original work or estimate sheets, without substitution of any material therein, so that the architect in making his report would be in a position to properly advise the Council with refer- ence to the respective bids received. At this time, the hour being 7:50 o'clock P. M., the Mayor pro tem declared a recess. At the hour of 8 :10 o'clock P. M., the Council reconvened, the following members being present and answering roll call: Councilmen Baker, Frederick, Gordon and Mayor pro tem Swanson.

The Council discussed the matter at length and various members expressed their opinion that if and when the lot immediately east of Mr. Randall, namely, Lot 12, Block 8, Tract 1685, is built upon, the owner of such property should be compelled to construct sidewalk in front of his property and Mr. Randall to construct sidewalk in front of his premises at that time.

Randall shall have filed his written agreement to construct a sidewalk in front of premises presently owned by him and which do not have a sidewalk, if and when the owner of Lot 12 Block-S' Tract 1685 is re quired to construct sidewalk in front of said premises, so tAat the sidewalk adjacent to said 115 fe &t of curb shall be continuous and complete.
