DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS, FACILITIES MAINTENANCE DIVISION FROM: DAVID JACOBS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: RONALD PATTERSON, FLEET MAINTENANCE MANANGER
TITLE: REPLACEMENT OF FENCING AT 426 WORK STREET COPRORATION YARD.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
It is recommended that City Council approve a resolution authorizing the replacement of the fencing at 426 Work Street.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that City Council approve a resolution authorizing the replacement of the chain link fencing at a total cost not to exceed $50,000.
BACKGROUND:
Facilities Maintenance requested quotes to replace the chain link fencing at 426 Work Street. The fencing provides security for the property. The current fence is broken and worn out. There are missing sections and missing slats. The age of the fence is unknown but estimated to be at least 25-30 years old.
We contacted three vendors to get quotes. We used an online quote generator, as well as called locally. We received two quotes. Both JR Fencing and Cypress Coast Fence quoted. JR Fencing quoted a price of $40,386 and Cypress Coast Fence quoted $60,320.00. Both quotes are prevailing wage. Both quotes utilized a 9-gauge material. We chose JR fencing at a cost of $40,386 but request a not to exceed cost of $50,000 due to market volatility. The existing gates will not be replaced at this time. The reason for this is we are working on getting two automated gates since our current gate is over 20 years old and the controller in obsolete. The new fencing will not interfere with any gate installation in the future. The fencing companies do not do gate installations.
The City can utilize cooperative purchases with other government agencies. Local businesses are given the opportunity to compete against these contracts. The quote from JR Fencing satisfies the purpose and requirements of Article III-A, Local Purchasing Preference of the Salinas Municipal Code.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
The requested Council action directly relates to Council’s Strategic Plans or Goals of providing “Well Planned City and Excellent Infrastructure”. The replacement of the failed fence will provide a safer work environment.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
Funds are appropriated and available in 5800.50.9331
