SUBJECT Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Negotiate and Execute an Agreement with Staples Construction Company for the City Hall First Floor Restroom Renovations in an Amount Not-to-Exceed $199,211
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute an agreement with Staples Construction Company, in an amount not-to-exceed $199,211 and authorizing procurement of the work through a cooperatively purchased contract.
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND
The City Hall First Floor Restroom Renovation project is part of the Facilities Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and supports the City’s commitment to provide facilities for employees and the public that are serviceable and in a good state of repair. The current project scope includes a complete restroom remodel of both the men’s and women’s restrooms on the first floor of City Hall. Built in 1997 and after 25+ years of use, City Hall’s restrooms, especially those on the lower floors most utilized by the public are showing signs of deterioration that are beyond repair and require a complete renovation.
DISCUSSION
Hayward City Hall, located at 777 B Street, will have the first floor Men’s and Women’s restrooms completely remodeled. The remodeling will consist of new waterless urinals, hands free faucets and flushometers for the toilets and basins, new basins, new low-maintenance flooring and wall tile, paint, ceiling tile, quartz counters, stainless steel partitions and mirrors. The Facilities CIP has funding programmed in FY23-26 to remodel City Hall’s restrooms, one-floor per fiscal year over the next four years. To ensure uniformity, a similar renovation scope of work will be completed on each floor, ending on the fourth floor in FY26.
The City is proposing to use Sourcewell, formerly the National Joint Powers Authority (NJPA), which competitively bids construction tasks with pre-set unit prices and specifications for general construction services including materials, equipment, and labor costs, to contract with Staples Construction Company for the remodel.
Sourcewell previously went through a competitive bidding process and awarded a contract to Staples Construction Company. California Government Code Section 6500 et seq. authorizes public agencies to enter into an agreement to jointly exercise any power in common to public agencies, including participating in cooperative purchasing agreements, while still remaining within the City’s adopted rules and procedures for purchasing. A job walk was held, and Staples Construction Company submitted a proposal in the amount of $189,725. Additionally, the City is requesting a 5% project contingency in the amount of $9,486. Staff has reviewed this proposal and recommends a contract award not-to-exceed $199,211 and there is ample budget available in the FY23 Facilities CIP.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total project cost $199,211 will be funded through FY23 Facilities CIP.
