AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for City of Lodi/Lodi Unified School
District (LUSD) Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Fueling Station Construction
at 820 South Cluff Avenue
MEETING DATE: November 17, 2004
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council accept the improvements under the "City of Lodi/
Lodi Unified School District (LUSD) Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)
Fueling Station Construction at 820 South Ciuff Avenue" contract.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Performance Mechanical, Incorporated,
of Sacramento, on February 18, 2004, in the amount of
$256,647.00, with anticipation of awarding bid alternates to bring
the total to $315,312.00. The contract has been completed in
substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by City Council.
The contract completion date was July 1, 2004, and the actual completion date was November 12, 2004.
The contract took longer than planned because the district was awarded additional funding for the
project, allowing additional work to be done. The final contract price was $363,381.50. The difference
between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to five change orders that total
$106,734.50. These change orders include LUSD shop upgrades (to be CNG compliant), methane
detection systems, a masonry separation wall between the above -ground diesellunleaded fuel tanks and
CNG compressors, longer slow -fill hoses, and a chain link fence and additional emergency stop button
for safety around the compressor assembly.
Following acceptance by the City Council, the City Engineer will file a Notice of Completion with the
County Recorder's office.
FUNDING: Budgeted Fund: 125585 (utilized grant funding, no transit funds expended)
Contract Amount: $363,381.50
