FOR THE PUBLIC WORKS SERVICE CENTER CARPORT STRUCTURE REPAIR PROJECT IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $54,400 Recommendation: Approve SUMMARY On August 19, 2014, a City owned compressed natural gas street sweeper caught on fire and exploded, resulting in extensive damage to a carport structure that houses equipment and fleet vehicles for the Public Works Services Department ( "PWSD "). As such, it is necessary to reconstruct the damaged carport structure to ensure its integrity for continued use. It is recommended that the City Council authorize and direct the City Manager to execute a contract with Avaz Construction, Inc. for the Public Works Service Center Carport Structure Repair Project in an amount not to exceed $54,400. DISCUSSION The existing carport structure located at the PWSD Service Center is used to protect larger fleet vehicles when not in operation and provides storage for small tools, equipment, and field supplies. The carport is a concrete block structure and includes a metal roof deck and support beams. Due to the intensity of the fire and subsequent explosion, the integrity of the support beams and a majority of the metal roof were compromised. PWSD had a structural engineering company assess the structural damage. The scope of work for the project includes the replacement of damaged block wall, steel beams, uprights, and the roof decking and roofing materials, power washing of the concrete block, and repainting of all metal surfaces. A Notice Inviting Bids was published in the City's adjudicated newspaper and the bid packages were distributed to contractors that perform this type of work. On February 24, 2015, the City Clerk received nine sealed bids with the following results: Award Contract for Carport Structural Repair Project March 17, 2015 Page 2 of 2 FIRM Avaz Construction, Inc.
