TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: David A. Webb, Public Works Director- (949) 644 -3330, dawebb @newportbeach.gov PREPARED BY: Fong Tse, Principal Civil Engineer PHONE: 949 - 644 -3321 TITLE: San Miguel Park Restroom Building Replacement Project - Award of Contract No. 5541 (CAP14 -0005) ABSTRACT: Staff has received favorable bids for the San Miguel Park Restroom Building Replacement Project and is requesting City Council's approval to award the construction contract to Big Ben, Inc. of Irvine, California. RECOMMENDATION: a) Approve the project plans and specifications; b) Award Contract No. 5541 to Big Ben, Inc. for the total bid price of $303,271.00, and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute the contract; and c) Establish an amount of $32,000.00 (approximately 10% of total bid) to cover the cost of unforeseen work. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Sufficient funding for the award of this contract is available. The following fund will be expensed: Account Description General Fund Proposed uses are as follows: Account Number Amount 7015- C1002044 $335,271.00 Total: $335,271.00 206 Vendor Purpose Amount Construction Contract $ 303,271.00 Construction Contingency $ 32,000.00 Total: $ 335,271.00 DISCUSSION: The existing San Miguel Park modular restroom building was installed over twenty -five years ago. It has exceeded its service life and requires an unproportionate amount of maintenance. The picnic structure that stood adjacent to the restroom building was removed from the park site, leaving only its reinforced concrete support columns standing at the present time. Rather than replacing only the restroom building under this contract, the project will rehabilitate all of the hardscapes that surround the existing tot lot as well as refreshing the adjacent parking lot. As a result of this holistic approach, the completed project will also have new integrally colored diamond pattern sawcut concrete panels; new concrete walk paths between the parking lot and the adjacent field; new and refreshed reinforced concrete retaining walls adjacent to the existing sand tot lot below the neighboring residential homes; and a seal coated parking lot complete with new pavement striping and markings. Two new shade structures similar to those at other City parks will be installed by others. At 10:00 AM on March 27, 2014, the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for this project: BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT Low Big Ben, Inc. $303,271.00 2 Gilman Builders, Inc. $310,479.00 3 Micon Construction, Inc. $359,469.00 4 Lehman Construction, Inc. $359,941.00 5 C.S. Legacy Construction, Inc. $361,200.00 6 Moalej Builders, Inc. $376,132.50 7 Klassic Engineering & Construction $379,074.00 8 Optima RPM, Inc. $387,144.00 9 Vido Samazich, Inc. $393,780.00 10 Civic Works Corp $399,006.00 11 Asphalt, Fabric & Engineering, Inc. $406,337.00 12 KASA Construction $407,601.00 13 STL Landscape, Inc. $414,000.00 207 14 Marjani Builders $421,700.00 15 Pacific Winds Building, Inc. $424,961.00 16 The Richards Group $428,250.00 17 States Link Construction, Inc. $465,893.00 18 Fast -Track Construction Corp $466,545.00 Although the low total bid amount is approximately thirty percent below the $435,000 Engineer's Estimate, given the number of competitive bids received and that all of the bidders proposed the same prefabricated restroom building unit, staff feels reassured that the completed project will meet the City's expectations. The low bidder, Big Ben, Inc.(Big Ben), possesses a California State Contractors License Classification "A" as required by the project specifications. A check of Big Ben's prior project references indicates they have satisfactorily completed public work projects for other local agencies. Pursuant to the Contract Specifications, Big Ben is allotted fifty consecutive working days to complete the construction. The $1,500 per calendar day liquidated damages amount for this project is a reminder to Big Ben that the work needs to be completed in time for the Fall sports season. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The project was determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) of the CEQA Implementation Guidelines. This Exemption covers the replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced.
