AND AMENDING THE FY 2021 - 22 BUDGET TO
APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF
GOLDEN STATE SUBSTATION REBUILD
THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK FINDS:
A. The Golden State substation suffered significant damage due to a transformer fire that occurred at the Golden State substation and, as a result, BWP is proposing a project to rebuild large portions of the Golden State substation (the “Project”).
B. Section 1205 of the Burbank Charter and Municipal Code Section 2-2-116 provides that the City Council may waive formal competitive bidding procedures and approve alternate project delivery methods, including “design- build,” when it is in the best interests of the City.
C. The design- build project method has gained favor in the construction industry because it facilitates the coordination of civil, structural, and electrical engineering in all phases of the project design and construction, minimizes change orders through early collaboration between design and construction disciplines, and reallocates design liability, project management and other risks from the City to the selected contractor.
D. As a result, BWP desires to utilize a design- build project delivery to complete the rebuild of the Project. The design-build method is both appropriate for this Project and in the best interests of the city due to the benefits outlined above. Upon completion of a competitive Statement of Qualifications process, and a competitive Request for Proposal process for the Project (also referred to as Bid Schedule No. 1495), a contract with Aubrey Silvey Enterprises, Inc. is recommended for approval in the amount of $ 14,576,194. Funding for the project and a 5% contingency ($728,810) are available in BWP's budget.
E. In order to provide sufficient funding for the entire DB firm contract an additional $10,880,194 must be appropriated in FY 2021-2022.

F. Furthermore, because final plans and specifications for the Project have not been completed, the City Council delegates the obligation to review and approve the Project plans and specifications to the BWP Assistant General Manager, Electric Services, or his designee.

1. The Project is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15302(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines.
2. Pursuant to Section 1205 of the Burbank Charter and Municipal Code Section 2-2-116, the City Council hereby approves performing the Project using the design-build method of project delivery.
