BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Over the past few years, staff has struggled with rodent infestations at the animal shelter. The rodent issue is now under control, however, the multiple infestations and subsequent mitigations had resulted in significant odor issues. This project consisted of removing and replacing the existing gypsum board ceiling, ceiling insulation, and interior painting. Removing the insulation and waste will greatly reduce the odor problems in the facility. The project was awarded to BRM Construction, of Hollister, on December 16, 2015, in the amount of $56,150. The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the specifications approved by City Council. The contract was completed within the original contract schedule. The final cost of the project was $55,721.34. The final cost was less than the original contract cost due to some minor changes in scope to accommodate the logistical needs of the facility. See attached Exhibit A for sample photos of the completed work. 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: The project will provide minimal savings on maintenance, however, it will greatly improve the shelter environment for employees and customers. FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded by General Fund Capital (43199000) Prepared by Sean Nathan, Associate Civil Engineer CES/SN/tdb Attachment APPROVED: Charles E.
