Agenda Item A.8
CPMS CONSENT CALENDAR
Meeting Date: September 19, 2023
TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Matthew R. Fore, General Services Director
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 2 to Agreement with Holmes Structures for Professional Services Related to Capital Improvements at the Goleta Community Center
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to Agreement No. 2022-070 with Holmes Structures for professional design services and additional project support for the Goleta Community Center Seismic Improvement Project, increasing the contract authority by $50,000, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $133,500 and extending the termination date to June 30, 2024.
BACKGROUND:
On July 29, 2022, the City Manager executed professional services agreement 2022- 070 with Holmes Structures (Holmes) to provide professional design services for the seismic retrofit of the Goleta Community Center. Construction of the project began in late May of 2023 and is still underway. Holmes provided engineering services, prepared bid and contract documents, engineering cost estimates and has responded to several requests for information during construction.
DISCUSSION:
During construction, several design changes were required to implement the seismic retrofit on the nearly 100-year-old Goleta Community Center, which outstripped the original contract amount. The recommended contract amendment will ensure Holmes’ involvement in the project until construction is completed, currently forecast for late Fall of 2023.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
Sufficient budget exists in CIP Project 9067 to cover the cost of the amendment .
Therefore, Staff is not requesting additional appropriations with this Council action. 1 Meeting Date: September 19, 2023
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may elect to not authorize the proposed contract amendment and provide staff alternative direction. However, doing so would result in significant construction delays.
