PARKER, CITY MANAGER FROM: DOUGLAS S. STACK, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS \ CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND AUTHORIZE ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR SENIOR CENTER ALTERNATE POWER SOURCE IMPROVEMENTS (CIP No. 10073) SUMMARY The plans and specifications for the Senior Center Alternate Power Source Improvements (CIP No. 10073) have been prepared and the project is ready to be bid. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended the City Council: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 17-44 approving plans and specifications for the Senior Center Alternate Power Source Improvements (CIP No. 10073), and 2. Authorize the City Clerk to advertise and receive bids. FISCAL IMPACT Sufficient funds have been budgeted and appropriated for this project in the Capital Improvement Program in CIP No. 10073. The engineer's estimate for this project is $366,847. CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN The recommended actions contribute to the fulfillment of the City's Strategic Plan Goal B, Public Safety and Protection of Assets. BACKGROUND The installation of a generator at Tustin Area Senior Center (TASC) will be an added power source. TASC has been chosen as the City's 1st Alternate Seat of Government in the event the Civic Center is not usable due to emergency conditions. In addition, TASC is designated as the City's Cooling Center for seniors when temperatures are deemed extreme. Furthermore, the need for TASC to become a designated shelter during an emergency is likely. The installation of an alternate power source at this site will be necessary when Southern California Edison (SCE) needs to implement a rotating outage. Rotating outages occur when SCE needs to ease the burden of energy needs in a geographical area. Typically in the summer, SCE will shut down power intentionally. Senior Center Alternate Power Source September 19, 2017 Page 2 The tentative schedule for construction of the project is as follows: Authorization to Advertise for Bids.................................................................. 09/19/2017 First Legal Advertisement...............................................................................09/21/2017 Second Legal Advertisement..........................................................................09/28/2017 BidOpening...................................................................................................10/24/2017 Award of Contract...........................................................................................11/07/2017 Start Construction..........................................................................................12/01/2017 Complete Construction.................................................................................... 3/01/2018 An extended construction period is needed because it will take approximately 8 weeks for the delivery of the new generator after submittal approval has occurred. It is recommended the City Council adopt Resolution No. 17-44 approving plans and specifications for the replacement of the Senior Center Alternate Power Source Improvements (CIP No. 10073) and authorize the City Clerk to advertise to receive bids. )tack, P.E. ublic Works/City Engineer Attachment: Resolution No. 17-44 S:\City Council Items\2017 Council Items\09-19-2017\P&S Senior Center Generator CDBG\Agenda Report SC.docx RESOLUTION NO. 17-44 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA APPROVING PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE SENIOR CENTER ALTERNATE POWER SOURCE IMPROVEMENTS CIP No. 10073 CONSTRUCTION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS WHEREAS, it is the intention of the City Council of the City of Tustin, CEgifornia to contract for the Senior Center Alternate Power Source Improvements CIP No. 10073 Construction Project; and WHEREAS, the City Engineer has presented plans and specifications for the construction of said work; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the plans and specifications presented by the City Engineer are hereby approved as the plans and specifications for: Senior Center Alternate Power Source Improvements CIP No. 10073 BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to advertise as required by law for the receipt of sealed bids or proposals for the performance of the work specified in the aforesaid plans and specifications; PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Tustin held on the 19th day of September 2017.
