BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Wagner Mechanical, Inc., of Linden, in the amount of $49,373.00. The contract was awarded on December 14, 2014 and has been completed in substantial conformance with the specifications approved by City Council. The project included removing and disposing of the existing boiler, installing a new, more energy efficient natural gas fueled boiler in the same location, and performing some minor modifications to the boiler exhaust system. The contract completion and actual completion date were both April 10, 2015. The final contract amount was $54,132.66. The difference between the final amount and the original was due to the additional asbestos flooring removal, staff training on the new boiler, and the replacement of the gas regulator, isolation valve and the backflow prevention device. Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineer will 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 payments from the prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute. FISCAL IMPACT: Replacing the boiler reduces heating costs and minimizes ongoing maintenance. FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded through Facility Operations Maintenance.
