The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.  If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale.
In the event that the Deed of Trust described in this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is secured by real property containing one to four single-family residences, the following notices are provided pursuant to the provisions of Civil Code section 2924f.
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Bidders at the trustee auction must make cashier’s checks payable to WT Capital. Third party cashier’s checks will not be accepted.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 559-228-8393 or visit this internet website www.wtcap.com, using the file number assigned to this case 25-14361-190. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
NOTICE TO TENANT: Effective January 1, 2021, you may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (559) 228-8393, or visit this internet website www.wtcap.com, using the file number assigned to this case 25-14361-190 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Bid Proposal: Antonio & Ashlan Alley Improvements
No bid will be considered unless it is made on a bid proposal form furnished by the City Engineer.  Each bid must be accompanied by a certified or cashier’s check or bidder’s bond on the City’s form, made payable to the City of Clovis, for an amount equal to at least ten percent (10%) of the amount bid.  Such guarantee will be forfeited should the bidder to whom the contract is awarded fail to enter into the contract.  A Performance Bond in the amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the contract amount and a Labor and Materials (Payment) Bond in the amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the contract amount will be required by the City from the bidder to whom the contract is awarded.  Said bonds shall be on the City’s forms and shall be issued by a surety company which is an admitted surety insurer authorized by the California Department of Insurance to transact business in this state, which has a rating not lower than “A-” as rated by A.M. Best Company, Inc. or other independent rating companies, and which is acceptable to the City of Clovis.  Bidders are cautioned that representations made by surety companies will be verified with the California Department of Insurance.  In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 13 (commencing with Section 4590), Division 5, Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of California, securities may be substituted for monies withheld on the project.
In accordance with the provisions of Section 1770 of the Labor Code, the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations of the State of California has determined the General Prevailing Rates and wages and employer payments for health and welfare pension, vacation, travel time and subsistence pay, as provided for in Section 1773, apprenticeship or other training programs authorized by section 3093, and similar purposes applicable to the work to be done.  Said wages are available from the Internet web site of the California Department of Industrial Relations at http://www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD and also available at the City Clerk Office, Clovis Civic Center, 1033 Fifth Street, Clovis, CA 93612.  A copy of the above-mentioned wage rates shall be posted by the Contractor at the job site where it will be available to any interested party.
In accordance with the provisions of Sections 1725.5, 1771.1, 1771.3, and 1771.4 of the Labor Code, this project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal (subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code), or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined by that chapter of the Labor Code, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 of the Labor Code.  See Section 7-2 of the Standard Specifications (General Conditions) for additional requirements. 
The City of Clovis will affirmatively insure that in any contract entered into pursuant to this advertisement, minority business enterprises will be afforded full opportunity to submit bids in response to this invitation and will not be discriminated against on the grounds of race, color, religious creed, sex, or national origin in consideration for an award.
The Federal minimum wage rates for this project as predetermined by the United States Secretary of Labor are set forth in the Bid book and in copies of this book that may be examined at the offices described above where project plans, special provisions, and bid forms may be seen.  The latest edition is also available from the Internet web site at U.S. General Services Administration and archives are available through the System for Award Management (SAM).gov.  Addenda to modify the Federal minimum wage rates, if necessary, will be issued to holders of Bid book.  Future effective general prevailing wage rates, which have been predetermined and are on file with the California Department of Industrial Relations are referenced but not printed in the general prevailing wage rates.  “Modifications” to the wage rates typically change the wage rate or fringe benefits for particular crafts and trades included in the original decision.  Modifications will not be effective if they are received after the bid opening or later than ten (10) days prior to the bid opening (unless there is reasonable time to notify bidders).  Modifications received prior to ten (10) days before the bid opening will require notification of bidders by Addendum.
Attention is directed to the Federal minimum wage rate requirements in the Bid book.  If there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general prevailing wage rates determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations for similar classifications of labor, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the higher wage rate.  The Department will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations.  This includes “helper” (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the Federal wage determinations.  Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage rate determination otherwise available for use by the Contractor and subcontractors, the Contractor and subcontractors shall pay not less than the Federal minimum wage rate, which most closely approximates the duties of the employees in question.
The work to be performed under this contract is on a project assisted under a program providing direct federal financial assistance from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, and is subject to the requirements of Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, as amended, 12 USC 1701u.  Section 3 requires that to the greatest extent feasible opportunities for training and employment to be given to low and moderate income persons residing within the project area and that the contracts for work in connection with the project be awarded to eligible business concerns which are located in, or owned in substantial part by persons residing in the area of the project.  Regulations for implementing the Section 3 clause are contained in 24 CFR 135, as amended, and as specified in the project specifications.
All bids are to be compared on the basis of the City Engineer’s estimate of the quantities of work to be done as shown in the bid proposal form.  The Contractor must be licensed in accordance with the provisions of the Business and Professions Code, Division 3, Chapter 9 “Contractor”.  Bidders for this project must possess a valid Class A or C12 License prior to award of the contract and will be requested to indicate the license expiration date, and the license number on the bid proposal if available.  Award consideration will take place at the earliest available Council meeting or as the City Manager has been authorized to award and execute the contract.  All representations made on the proposal are made under penalty of perjury.
The project is subject to the contracting requirements and implementing regulations as amended in Title 13, Section 2449 General Requirements for In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets, of the California Code of Regulations (13 CCR § 2449(i)). Bidders must submit a valid Certificate of Reported Compliance (CRC) issued by the California Air Resources Control Board at the time of bidding. Bidders are responsible for submitting their listed subcontractors’ CRCs and any supporting documentation within five (5) calendar days of bid opening. Failure to submit the required CRCs may render a bid non-responsive.
The lowest bid shall be determined by the amount of the base.  The Owner reserves the right to add or deduct any of the additive or deductive items after the lowest responsible and responsive bidder is determined.
The City of Clovis reserves the right to reject any or all bids, to waive any informalities or minor irregularities in the bids received, or to award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder as may serve the best interest of the City of Clovis.
Time of completion for the Project shall be Twenty (20) Working Days from the date established in the Owner’s Notice to Proceed.
Unless otherwise required by law, no bidder may withdraw its bid for a period of sixty (60) days after the date set for the opening thereof or any authorized postponement thereof.  The Owner reserves the right to take more than sixty (60) days to make a decision regarding the rejection of bids or the award of the Contract.
