AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Henry Glaves Playground Improvements
MEETING DATE: September 19, 2018
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept improvements under contract for Henry Glaves Playground
Improvements.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The playground equipment at Henry Glaves Park was 24 years old
and in need of replacement. Many of its original features were
removed because of safety hazards. This project consisted of
removing the outdated playground equipment, concrete footings, and engineered wood fiber; assembling
and installing a new playground equipment structure; installing new and salvaged engineered wood fiber;
installing an Americans with Disabilities -accessible concrete access ramp; providing a required third -
party playground inspection, and other incidental and related work.
Plans and specifications for this project were approved on February 21, 2018. The contract was awarded
on May 2, 2018, to Stratus Construction Company, of Stockton, in the amount of $68,000.
The contract completion date was within the original schedule and amount specified in the contract. No
additional work was required. Photos of the playground equipment installation are shown in Exhibit A.
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 have a minimal impact on annual maintenance costs, and
will reduce the City's exposure to claims related to the condition of
playground surfaces.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: The project was funded by Parks Capital.
