Triangle Habitat Restoration.

DISCUSSION
The Fairview Triangle is a triangular-shaped undeveloped dirt lot along the Santa Ana River
Recreational Trail and Fairview Avenue, south of 17th Street (Exhibit 1). The Santa Ana River
Vision Plan, which was adopted by City Council on August 7, 2006, identified this property as an
area of opportunity in that it could be developed into a trail-side rest area for pedestrians and
cyclists. The proposed project includes decomposed granite paths, benches, a bike rack, drought-
tolerant landscaping, and an irrigation system using reclaimed water. The improvements will
provide a space for trail users to rest as well as view the existing habitat area.
The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on August 17 and 18, 2011, and bids were opened on
September 7, 2011. A summary of the bid invitations mailed, the bids received, and the bid results
follows.

While the City made outreach efforts to Santa Ana contractors regarding the notice inviting bids, no
contractors from Santa Ana submitted bids. A survey was taken from randomly selected Santa
Ana contractors who chose not to bid. The results indicated that they either were not capable of
performing this type of work, were unable to obtain insurance because the project was too large, or
they worked as a subcontractor to certain prime contractors.
The bids received are as follows.
