Explanation
BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to modify a contract on behalf of the Facilities Management Division with General Maintenance and Engineering Company for renovation of the roof and gutter systems for various Fire Stations under the purview of the Facilities Management Division. These fire facilities are Fire Station No. 11, 2200 West Case Road; Fire Station No. 32, 3675 Gender Road; and Fire Station No. 31, 5305 Alkire Road. The contract was formally bid (SA004098). Legislation was not necessary earlier because the contract did not exceed $20,000.00. The contract encompasses all buildings under the purview of the Facilities Management Division.
A modification of the contract is necessary as the current roof and gutter systems are in a state of disrepair and have exceeded the life expectancy. General Maintenance and Engineering Company was chosen to perform the work because it is the Facilities Management Divisions contractor for roof repairs of various building systems under the purview of the Facilities Management. Therefore it would not be in the best interest of the City to select another vendor to complete this work. Prices already established in the contract were used to determine the cost of this modification.
Emergency action is requested to enable the contractor to complete this project during good weather.
General Maintenance and Engineering Company Contract Compliance No. 31-4188545, expiration date March 7, 2015.
Fiscal Impact: The cost of this modification is $72,694.60. Sufficient funding is available in the Safety Voted Bond Fund.
