CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
ITEM NO. 7
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: BONITA CANYON SPORTS PARK, CONTRACT NO. 3270 —AMENDMENT
NO. 1 TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH GEOSOILS,
INC.
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute Amendment No. 1 with Geosoils, Inc.,
increasing their contract from $23,492 to $35,412 for additional construction geotechnical
support.
DISCUSSION:
On May 9, 2000, the City Council awarded the $6,276,000 Bonita Canyon Sports Park
Improvements contract to Castello, Inc., of Escondido, California. The project is 50
percent complete and approximately one month behind schedule. Staff is working with the
contractor to ensure construction efforts are completed by September, with the plant
establishment and maintenance lasting another six months. The park should be open for
public use in January 2002.
Geosoils was hired to perform geotechnical and soils construction observation support for
the project. The Mid Park grading operation required significant additional effort by
Geosoils. Wet soils were encountered under the proposed location of the Mid Park
restroom and at the storm drain outlet structure. A redesign of the storm drain outlet was
completed, based on Geosoils' recommendation and the grading operation was modified
to reduce costs. The special design recommendations resulted in additional geotechnical
support costs of $11,920. It is recommended that the Mayor and City Clerk execute
Amendment No. 1 to Geosoils Professional Services Agreement. Funds to cover the
additional costs would come from the Bonita Canyon Sports Park Account No. 7441 -
C4120434.
