Explanation:
The City owns a single family residence located at 2323 Cleveland Street. The property was acquired from Cosac Homeless Assistance Center in 2015. The home is vacant and in need of comprehensive rehabilitation to make it suitable for occupancy. Staff recommends rehabilitating the home prior to marketing it to low- to moderate-income buyers. The rehabilitation work will be accomplished in conjunction with the City’s Housing Rehabilitation Program, which is funded using Home Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), State of Florida Housing Initiatives Partnership Program (SHIP) and Department of Housing and Urban Development Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
On February 28, 2019 Solicitation Number F-4608-19-RL was electronically advertised via BidSync in accordance with the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, Section 38.42(A). Twelve registered BidSync vendors downloaded the solicitation for further consideration. Procurement Services sent invitation emails to 13 prospective vendors notifying them of the bid. As of the solicitation due date, 53 potential vendors viewed the solicitation on BidSync. The solicitation was opened at 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday, March 19, 2019 and resulted in the following responses:

The submittal from Building Express Company was a no-bid response, and the bid submitted by Cosugas, LLC was deemed to be non-responsive because the firm failed to attend the mandatory pre-bid conference. Gentile Corporation has been determined to be the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, and the firm is currently performing housing rehabilitation services for the City in a responsive and satisfactory manner.
Award is subject to the City’s receipt and approval of all insurance certificates required by the City’s Risk Manager, and indemnity to the City. Staff recommends that the City Commission approve issuance of a Purchase Order to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, Gentile Corporation of West Palm Beach, Florida, for an estimated expenditure of $108,000.00. This amount includes an additional $18,000.00 based on a twenty percent contingency plan.
