Recommendation: Approve
On November 17, 2009, the City Council awarded a contract to D & J Foothill Electrical
Contractors, Inc. in the amount of $101,150 for the installation of a powered vehicle
exhaust extraction system. The terms and conditions of this project have been
complied with and the work has been performed to staff's satisfaction for a total project
cost of $101,150. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council accept all work
performed by D & J Foothill Electrical Contractors, Inc. for the installation of a powered
vehicle exhaust extraction system as complete and authorize the final payment to be
made in accordance with the contract documents.
The Public Works Services Department is responsible for the care and maintenance of
the City's fleet and its personnel are required to work on vehicles when their engines
are running. As a result, employees are exposed to fumes from engine exhaust
systems. Therefore, a powered vehicle exhaust extraction system is necessary in the
City's garage to remove fumes out of the service bays when the mechanics work on the
vehicles.
The terms and conditions of this contract have been complied with and the work has
been performed to staff's satisfaction with no contract change orders. Therefore, staff
recommends that the City Council accept all work performed by D & J Foothill Electrical
Contractors, Inc. as complete and authorize the final payment to be made in
accordance with the contract documents, subject to retention of $10,115.00.
