Approve an amendment to the Bristol-Tolliver Street Urban Greening Project Cost Analysis to add $115,000 in Residential Development District 4 - Acquisition and Development funds, and $176,000 in Community Development Block Grant funds for a new total construction delivery cost of $4,872,808. 2. Approve a Change Order to add $115,000 to an existing construction contract with Legion Contractors, Inc., for the construction of the basketball court at the Bristol-Tolliver Street Urban Greening Project. GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Public Works Agency is responsible for the administration and oversight of all Capital Improvement projects in the City. The Bristol-Tolliver Street Urban Greening Project is currently under construction located on the corner of Bristol Street and Tolliver Street. This Project includes play equipment and adult fitness equipment with shade structures, pedestrian pathways, lighting, picnic areas, educational signage, drought tolerant landscaping, and a stormwater capture and reuse system for the park’s irrigation. In the Project’s final construction documents, a basketball court was included as a bid alternate in the amount of $235,000 in anticipation of future funding to be approved and allocated by the City Council. For that reason, the award of the construction contract in March 2025 excluded the bid alternate scope of work. During the Fiscal Year 2025-26 (FY 25-26) budget and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) adoption process, City Council allocated $115,000 from Park Acquisition and Development funds (non-federal funds) and $176,000 from Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds (federal funds) for a total of $291,000 for the addition of a Bristol-Tolliver Park Basketball Court August 19, 2025 Page 2 5 2 3 9 basketball court (Exhibit 1). The basketball court will provide enhanced recreational benefits to the community. On March 18, 2025, City Council awarded a non-federalized construction contract to Legion Contractors, Inc. (Legion) for the Bristol-Tolliver Street Urban Greening Project. The project is currently under construction and is to be completed in February 2026. Staff recommends adding the FY 25-26 budget allocation of $115,000 of local funds to the existing construction project and executing a change order for the installation of the concrete pad and electrical portion of the work for the basketball court. The current construction contract with Legion Contractors, Inc., is not federalized and therefore cannot utilize the $176,000 of CDBG Federal funds. It will be necessary for the City to separately bid out and procure a construction contract via a federally compliant process and award a separate federalized contract for the remaining work to complete the basketball court, which includes installation of the lighting control panel, sports lighting, and striping/surfacing. The $176,000 will be sufficient for completing the scope of work and any unused CDBG funding will be returned to the Community Development Agency upon completion of the project. The recommended action will increase the existing construction contact with Legion by $115,000. As indicated in the Cost Analysis (Exhibit 2) and as summarized in the table below, $176,000 of CDBG Federal funds are also included in the table below for completion of the basketball court, for a new total estimated construction delivery cost of $4,872,808.
