BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On December 1,2010, City Council awarded contract for the MSC

completed insubstantial conformance with the Requestfor Proposals for the project approved by City
Council on May 19,2010.
The project consisted of rebuilding one of the existing compressors at the MSC CNG fueling station.
The final contract cost was $14,838.54. The difference between the original and final contract price was
$1,180.54, due to one change order to replace three existing switches, for standby time waiting on a
separate control panel contractor, and a credit for reduced shipping costs from California to Texas.
Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineerwill fife a Notice of
Completionwith 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 payments from the prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute.
FISCAL IMPACT: There will be a slight decrease in the long-term maintenance costs
associated with the installation of these new improvements.
