Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into two contracts for the Facilities Management Division with VEC Systems, in the amount of $163,450.00 each ($326,900.00 total) for the renovation of the roofs at the Refuse Administration buildings at 2100 Alum Creek Drive and 1550 Georgesville Road. The current roofs are decaying. The renovation will consist of the replacement of the current roofs with granular-textured roofs of modified bitumen asphalt. The contractor has ninety days upon notification of the award of the contracts to complete the projects. The roofs will include a two-year workmanship guarantee from the contractor and a thirty-year material and workmanship guarantee from the Manufacturer.
This ordinance also authorizes the repeal of Ordinance 0762-2004, passed May 11, 2004, and Ordinance 0766-2004, passed May 11, 2004. These ordinances authorized the Public Service Director to enter into two contracts with Nu-Tec Roofing Contractors, LLC, at a cost of $116,000.00 each ($232,000.00 total) for the renovation of these two Refuse administration roofs. Nu-Tec Roofing Contractors, LLC failed to obtain a necessary performance bond and did not renovate the roofs. The Public Service Department is working in conjunction with the City Attorney's Office to recoup the difference between the $232,000 price bid by Nu-Tec Roofing Contractors, LLC and the current costs to replace these roofs.
This ordinance also amends the 2004 Facilities Management Capital Improvement Budget and authorizes the transfer of $63,330.50 from the ECCO Family Health Center Project, $48,749.90 from the 300 N High Overhead Pedestrian Project, and $1,241.16 from the Rec/Parks Facilities Project to the Facility Renovation Project.
