AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Well 27 Well Drilling at
2360 West Century Boulevard (DeBenedetti Park)
MEETING DATE: June 6,2007
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept the improvements underthe `Well 27 Well Drilling at
2360 West Century Boulevard (DeBenedetti Park)" contract.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded at the August 16,2006 Council meeting to
Zim Industries, of Fresno, in the amount of $208,700.
This project consisted of the well drilling and development that will determine the optimal yield of the well.
Future phases of this project will install the pump and motor and develop the site with piping, controls,
and an enclosure.
The final contract price is $211,195. The difference between the contract amount and the final price is
mainly due to Contract Change Order No. 1 which paid the contractor $3,600 to clean the well with an
"air swabbing" technique. This technique resulted in a decreased development time for the contractor
and a decreased amount of water used for testing purposes.
Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineerwill file a Notice of
Completion with the County Recorder's office. The notice serves to notify vendors and subcontractors
that the project is complete and begins their 30 -day period to file a stop notice requiring the City to
withhold paymentsfrom the prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute.
FISCAL IMPACT: There will be additional maintenance costs associated with a new water
productionwell after it is constructed.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Water Impact Mitigation Fees $211.195
