10. REJECTION OF ALL BIDS FOR THE SOUTH HANGAR RENOVATION (CIP NO. 10076) Staff is recommending that the City Council reject both bid proposals received on July 11, 2023 for the South Hangar Renovation, CIP No. 10076. The City received only two (2) bids for this project, both higher than the engineer's estimate, with the lowest being approximately 13.7% over the engineer's estimate. In addition, staff has determined that adding the limited civil work to the Neighborhood D South Phase 2 - Package #1 bid set would allow the City to require a Class B contractor's license instead of a Class A license, and further to split the structural work from the electrical work, both in an attempt to provide flexibility for a determination of its approach to get more bidders and more competitive bid numbers. - City of Tustin, CA
