NO. 06-085) <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />APPROVED <br />^ As Recommended <br />FOR LIGHT ^ As Amended <br />^ Ordinance on 15~ Reading <br />^ Ordinance on 2"d Reading <br />^ Implementing Resolution <br />^ Set Public Hearing For_ <br />n ~,_ <br />/ ~/, j , <br />CITY AN GER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Amend the contract with Beard Electric to increase the aggregate limit by <br />$15,768 for light poles and fixtures for an amount not to exceed $41,436. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The lighting system at Bomo Koral Park was installed over 30 years ago. <br />Some of the existing poles have been damaged from weather, irrigation and <br />other environmental forces. On July 17, 2006, Council awarded a contract <br />to Beard Electric to provide and install eight security lighting fixtures <br />on the existing foundation at Bomo Koral Park. Upon removal of the <br />existing pole and fixtures, the contractor noted that the existing <br />foundation anchor bolts were corroded or loose, and the concrete footings <br />were cracked, rendering the foundation structurally deficient. This <br />condition was not visible until the existing poles and fixtures were <br />removed. <br />The amendment will allow the contractor to remove the existing concrete <br />foundation, re-pour a new concrete foundation, and install pull boxes and <br />conduits necessary for the new security lighting fixtures. To allow for <br />unanticipated requirements, a $5,000 contingency has been included in the <br />award amount. <br />22C-1 <br />
