Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into contract for the Office of Construction Management with Ultimax Inc., for the renovation (Phase 1) of the interior offices at 743 West Third Avenue. This building is a Police Division building, formerly used by SWAT. It is to house Police Substation No. 1, thereby necessitating renovations. The renovation will allow the Police Division to move from a leased facility, currently located on West Nationwide Avenue. The move of this substation to a City-owned facility will eliminate lease costs.

Ordinance 0650-2008, passed on July 23, 2008, authorized architectural services for the design renovation of interior offices at 743 West Third Avenue. This ordinance will authorize the replacement of flooring, drywall repair and painting, caulking, replacement of the bathroom sink, countertop, locker repair and painting, replacement of the exterior door and minor landscaping.

At a subsequent date, Phase II will occur. Phase I and II were bid separately. Phase I will allow renovation of the facility in a timely fashion, allowing the Police Division to move from the leased space before the end of the lease. Phase II will occur after the Police Division has relocated. Phase II will include removing the enclosed garage, filling in the walls and creating additional space. In addition, a weight room, an additional locker room, and storage room will be constructed. Heating and cooling will be added in the newly constructed spaces; no additional plumbing is required.

Formal bids were solicited and four companies submitted bids on September 22, 2008 as follows (0 MBE, 1 +FBE):

Ultimax, Inc. $46,000.00
2K General $49,900.00
Tyevco, Inc. $50,602.00
Bomar Construction + $56,910.00

The Office of Construction Management recommends the bid award be made to the most responsive and responsible and best bidder, Ultimax, Inc.
