THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO REBUILDING TOGETHER FOR 10 PISTACHE COURT,
PETALUMA, CA,ASSESSOR PARCEL NUMBER 006-630-016-000
WHEREAS,the City purchased at a foreclosure hearing the single-family home located at 10 Pistache Court,
Petaluma, CA, Assessor Parcel Number 006-630-016-000 (Property); and
WHEREAS, the Property is currently in disrepair and vacant; and will be rehabilitated by Rebuilding
Together Petaluma; and
WHEREAS, once the rehabilitation work is completed, the City will transfer ownership of the land to the
Housing Land Trust of the North Bay and sell the home to an income qualified household; and
WHEREAS,the common law recognizes a bidding exception for circumstances where competitive bidding
of public contracts otherwise required by statute may be excused, including circumstances where the contract is
such that competitive proposals would be unavailing or would not produce an advantage, and the advertisement
for competitive bid would thus be undesirable, impractical, or impossible (Graydon v. Pasadena
Redevelopment, Agency(1980) 104 CAM 631); and it would be impractical and not advantageous to the City to
spend the resources and time to bid out the rehabilitation project as the City and State are currently in a shelter
crisis and the sooner the City can perform the rehabilitation, the sooner a new family can make beneficial use of
the property; and
WHEREAS, it's also not advantageous to the City as typically, the City's bidding process takes two months
to complete and every day that the property sits vacant could result in the property deteriorating further, which
will cost more money for the City to rehab and vacant properties may also lead to nuisance conditions for the
neighborhood; and
WHEREAS,the proposed action is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) which exempts "Interior

to the City to spend the resources and time to bid out the rehabilitation project. The City and State are currently
in a shelter crisis and the sooner the City can perform the rehabilitation, the sooner a new family can make
beneficial use of the property. Typically, the City's bidding process takes two months to complete and every

for the City to rehab. Vacant properties may also lead to nuisance conditions for the neighborhood.
