reminded to sign in on the form provided.
John Ahlers, 999 3rd Avenue, Seattle
Mr. Ahlers indicated that he is an attorney and spoke on behalf of
Pivetta Brothers Construction regarding City of Auburn Project No.
C516A. Mr. Ahlers indicated that a bid protest has been raised in
connection with the project and spoke in opposition to awarding the
project to Rodarte Construction. Mr. Ahlers stated that the Rodarte
Construction bid is non-responsive. His client's opposition is
related to the trench/shoring portion of the bid. Mr. Ahlers spoke
regarding requirements for shoring and trench safety requirements
and related costs as listed in the bids. In Mr. Ahlers opinion, the
Rodarte Construction bid violates state statute and is therefore
non-responsive, whereas Pivetta Brothers bid conforms to the
statute. Mr. Ahlers requested that Council award the bid to the
most responsible bidder, which in his opinion is Pivetta Brothers.

entitled Credit not to be Loaned.
Public Works Director Dowdy stated that all bids were reviewed
and all bidders met the intent of the state statute by including a bid
price for the shoring as referenced by Mr. Ahlers. All bidders

bidder. Director Dowdy expressed the City's support of the award
