ITEM NO. H -10
SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF SPYGLASS HILL PUMP STATION, ZONE V (C -1488)
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Accept the Work.
2. Authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.
3. Authorize the City Clerk to release the bonds 35 days
after Notice of Completion has been filed.
DISCUSSION:
The contract for the construction of the Spyglass Hill Pump Station,
Zone V, has been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department.
The lump sum bid price was: $100,854.00
Amount of change orders 1,329.30
Total contract cost 102,183.30
Amount budgeted in the Water Fund 105,854.00
(Account No. 50- 9297 -089)
One change order was issued to provide for the installation of a
valve and pipe stubs which were not included in the construction of the subdivi-
sion improvements. Lusk has already reimbursed the City for the cost of this
charge, $1,329.30.
Funds for construction were advanced by the Spyglass Hill Developer,
John D. Lusk and Son. This advance will be paid back in accordance with the
amended Water System Capital Improvement Construction and Reimbursement Agreement
approved June 11, 1973.
The design engineering was performed by Raub, Bein, Frost and Asso-
ciates of Newport Beach.
The contractor is Taymech Corporation of Santa Ana, California.
The contract date of completion was November 10, 1973. The contractor
was delayed in starting due to other conflicting work in the area. Further
delays were experienced in obtaining the control equipment resulting in the work
not being completed until April 22, 1974.

FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: SPYGLASS HILT_ PUMP STATION, ZONE V (CONTRACT NO. 1488)
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Adopt a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute
an amendment to the existing Water System Capital Improvement
Construction and Reimbursement Agreement with John D. Lusk and Son "
to include the subject pumping station.
�2. Adopt a resolution awarding Contract No. 1488 to Taymech Corporation,
for $100,854.00 and authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute
the contract.
DISCUSSION:
The construction of the subject facility will ultimately be financed by
the Water System Capital Improvement Fund. Initial financing will be with funds
advanced by the developer, John D. Lusk and Son. The amendment adds the subject
facility to the term "project" as defined in the existing Water System Capital
Improvement- Construction and Reimbursement Agreement. It further provides that
reimbursement of funds advanced for the pumping station shall be in accordance with
the provisions of the existing agreement.
Four bids for Contract 1488 were received and opened in the office of the
Clerk at 10:00 a.m. on May 30, 1973.
BIDDER BID
Taymech Corporation $100,854.00
Santa Ana, California
2. Triad Piping and Construction Co. $110,000.00
Gardena, California
3. Pylon, Inc. $114,343.00
Compton, California
4. Advance Mechanical Contractors, Inc. $119,520.00
Long Beach, California
The low bid is 36% more than the Engineer's estimate of $74,000.00. This
difference appears to be due to insufficient allowances in the estimate for (1) in-
crease in labor rates starting July 1, 1973, (2) increase in cost of lumber and
(3) increase in cost of control equipment.
June 11, 1973
SUBJECT: Spyglass Hill Pump Station, Zone V (Contract No. 1488)
Page 2
This contract provides for the construction of a water pumping station
to serve that portion of the Spyglass Hill development located within the water
pressure Zone V service area. The estimated date of completion is November 2, 1973.
The plans and specifications were prepared by Raub, Bein, frost and Associates,
Civil Engineers.
Taymech Corporation has not previously done work for the City. A check
of the references supplied indicates that the firm is well qualified to perform
the work required by this contract.
In order to set up the appropriation for the funds advanced by the devel-
oper, a budget amendment of $105,854 has been prepared for Council consideration
if the subject contract is awarded. The amount includes an allowance of $5,000 for
materials testing and contingencies.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
ITEM NO H -13
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Public Works Department
SUBJECT: SPYGLASS HILL PUMP STATION, ZONE V (CONTRACT 1488)
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Approve the plans and specifications for Spyglass Hill
Pump Station.
2. Authorize the City Clerk to advertise for bids for
Contract 1488 to be opened on Wednesday, May 30, 1973
at 10:00 a.m.
DISCUSSION:
On October 10, 1972, the Council authorized design and preparation
of the plans and specifications for the subject facility. This pumping station
is a "Master Plan" water system facility and is required to provide domestic
water to the water pressure Zone V service area of Harbor View Hills, Sector IV
(Spyglass Hill).
The plans and specifications were prepared by the firm of Raub,
Bein, Frost and Associates. The Engineer's estimate is $74,000. The estimated
date of completion is November 2, 1973.
An environmental statement has not been prepared for this project
inasmuch as the pumping station is an integral part of the Spyglass Hill develop-
ment. The grading for this development was completed last year. Therefore, it
is felt that the pumping station construction taken by itself will not have a
significant environmental effect.
The construction of the subject facility will ultimately be financed
by the Water System Capital Improvement Fund. Initial financing will be with
funds advanced by the developer, John D. Lusk and Son. The funds advanced will
be reimbursed from acreage fees. The existing Water System Capital Improvement
Construction and Reimbursement Agreement with John D. Lusk and Son must be
amended to include the Spyglass Hill Pump Station. This amendment will be sub-
mitted for Council consideration in conjunction with award of Contract 1488.

RECOMMENDATION:
DISCUSSION:
October 10, 1972
/7/-13 /
Adopt a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to
execute an engineering services agreement with Raub, Bein,
Frost and Associates, Civil Engineers, to perform the design
of the Zone V Pumping Station.
On September 11, 1972 the Council authorized the staff to

cations for the subject Water Master Plan Facility.
A proposal has been obtained from the firm of Raub, Bein,
Frost and Associates, Civil Engineers.

maximum fee not to exceed $4,200.00
A budget amendment appropriating $4,500 has been prepared
for Council consideration if authorization of the subject agreement is
approved. The amount includes an allowance of $300 for reproduction
costs and contingencies. The Water System Development Fund will be
used to finance the engineering costs.
A budget amendment appropriating construction funds will be
processed at a later date when a detailed cost estimate is available.
The construction funds will be advanced by the developer of Spyglass
Hill.

SUBJECT: ZONE V PUMPING STATION FOR HARBOR VIEW HILLS, SECTOR IV
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Authorizing the staff to obtain a proposal for engineering
services to prepare plans and specifications for the
subject facility.
2. Authorize the staff to negotiate an amendment to the
existing water system capital improvement construction
and reimbursement agreement with John D. Lusk and Son

DISCUSSION:
G' -s
On December 27, 1971, the Council authorized the addition of certain
"Master Plan" water system facilities in conjunction with expanding the down -
coast water service area and introducing an ordinance revising the water
capital improvement charge. The subject pumping station was included in the
added facilities.
The pumping station is required to provide domestic water to the
Water Pressure Zone V service area of Harbor View Hills, Sector IV.
The design and construction of the subject facility will ultimately be
financed by the Water System Capital Improvement Fund. Initial financing will
be with funds advanced by the developer, John D. Lusk and Son. The funds advanced
would be reimbursed from acreage fees. The existing water system capital improve-
ment construction and reimbursement agreement with John D. Lusk and Son will have
to be amended to include the Zone V pump station.

I have examined the Balance Sheet of Taymech Corporation as of January
31 1973. My examination was made in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting
records and such other auditing procedures as I considered necessary in
the circumstances.
In my opinion, the accompanying Balance Sheet presents fairly the
financial position of Taymech Corporation as of January 31 1973 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
