Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance amends the 2010 Capital Improvements Budget and authorizes the transfer of $248,824.51 within the Safety Voted Bond Fund. This ordinance also authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with General Maintenance and Engineering for the replacement of the roof and masonry for the Division of Police, Substation No. 5, 1371 Cleveland Avenue. The roof renovation is necessary due to water intrusion.
The renovation will consist of removal of the existing roofing system, installation of the modified bitumen system, masonry, mold abatement, window demolition, minor carpentry, drywall, painting, and installation of carpet and floor tile.
Formal bids were solicited. Two companies submitted bids on June 29, 2010 as follows (0 MBE, 0 FBE):
General Maintenance and Engineering $281,993.00
Wingler Construction $395,056.00
The Office of Construction Management recommends the bid award be made to the most responsive and responsible bidder, General Maintenance and Engineering.
Emergency action is requested so that the roof and masonry renovation can occur immediately.
General Maintenance and Engineering Contract Compliance No. 31-4188545, expiration date May 19, 2012.
Fiscal Impact: This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $281,993 from existing cash in the Safety Voted Bond Fund. In order to accommodate this expenditure, the 2010 Capital Improvements Budget needs to be amended to account for encumbrance cancellations, as well as transfers of funds between projects so that budget authority can be properly aligned with anticipated expenses.
