AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Fire Station No. 3 Building Repairs
MEETING DATE: July 15,- 2015
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept improvements under contract for Fire Station No. 3 Building
Repairs.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to CNW Construction, of Rescue, on March 4,
2015, in the amount of $49,000. The contract has been completed in
substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by
City Council.
This project provided the necessary external building repairs at Fire Station No. 3. The station was constructed
in 1974. Over the years, maintenance improvements of various components of the building had been deferred
and needed to be addressed by this project.
The maintenance improvements generally consisted of replacing the exterior wood tile siding, repairing a
section of the soffit, replacing the wood paneling above and below the wood tile siding, repainting the exterior
(except bricks), and replacing chain link fence slats to improve aesthetics, security, and safety. The project
improvements will allow the City to continue using the facility without having a major failure relating to these
deteriorated components.
The contract completion date was May 15, 2015, and the actual completion date was June 19, 2015. The final
contract price was $ 70,320. The difference between the contract and the final price and completion dates was
due to the extensive dry rot that was found when removing the old wood tile siding. All of the plywood behind
the siding needed to be fully removed and replaced, and multiple supports behind the plywood also needed to
be removed and replaced.
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: This project will extend the useful life of the building and reduce ongoing
maintenance costs of the facility.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded by General Fund Capital (43199000).
