Sotelo, City Manager SUBJECT: Veteran's Park Racquetball Court Seismic Date: January 30, 1991 Retrofit Final and Filing of Notice of Completion. BACKGROUND In July of 1990, the Council waived the formal bid process and directed Staff to proceed with the Veteran's Park racquetball court seismic retrofit to eliminate the potential hazard of structural failure during an earthquake. The selection of the contractor was conducted through a request for proposal process. Council directed Staff to award the project to Vail Masonry, Ince with a contingency_to award the project to the next lowest proposal if Vail Masonry could not provide the necessary bonds and insurance. Vail Masonry was unable to provide the performance bond and the project was therefore, awarded to Wyatt Construction. All work to be performed by Agreement and Change Order was completed and accepted by the Building and Safety Department on October 30, 1990. Per agreement, the project was left open to allow the con- tractor to research and submit a cost to provide the center walls with plaster finish. Upon submission of the estimate, Staff found the price excessive and advised the contractor that the project would be finalized. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM The City Council needs to accept the project work as final and direct Staff to file the Notice of Completion and to release the retention to Wyatt Construction after the 35 day waiting period. ALTERNATIVES 1. Final the project and direct Staff to complete the project close-out. 2. Reject the final request and direct Staff as to Council's wishes Attachments: ( 5 ) Pagel of_ 2 _ Item No. 7
