Attorney Hatch responded to the Board's concerns about licensure, bid documents, <br />and the affidavit. He noted, on the latter item, that Lucas Marine had not submitted the affidavit at <br />all. <br />Director Davis declared that having reviewed the information provided by Giannetti <br />Contracting at today's meeting, he remained unconvinced that they had done a similar project. <br />Vice Chair Bowden inquired as to how many similar projects Lucas Marine had <br />completed, to which Director Davis replied there were at least three. <br />Chairman Wheeler commented that Giannetti Contracting's handout illustrated <br />some pretty gigantic projects. He believed that the contractor should be capable of following <br />through on other complicated projects. <br />Vice Chair Bowden agreed, and wondered if this was specialty work. <br />Director Davis clarified that this project entailed marine construction, and reiterated <br />that he did not see any projects that involved the type of structure that was going to be placed in the <br />Main Relief Canal. <br />Mr. Giannetti discussed some of the projects his company had been involved in, <br />and declared that Giannetti was a diverse contractor with the knowledge to do the subject project. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan acknowledged that Giannetti Contracting did excellent <br />quality work, and he was glad that they were doing the County's Rockridge Project. However, <br />since the County Attorney, Purchasing Director, Public Works Director and several other <br />department heads had concurred on this award, he believed the Board should rely on staffs <br />recommendation. <br />July 24, 2007 44 <br />
