REPLACEMENT PROJECT IN THE AMOUNT OF $192,500
CEQA: Exempt
Recommendation: Adopt and Approve
SUMMARY
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (“CIP”) provides for the
replacement of six garage doors at Fire Station 106. To ensure the City is receiving the
most competitive pricing for this project, the Public Works Services Department (“PWSD”)
conducted a formal bid. Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. submitted the lowest
responsive bid. Unfortunately, due to pricing changes in the marketplace, the bids came
back substantially higher than the current budget; however, it is essential that the work
be completed on all doors to ensure the facility can safely host the City’s emergency
medical and fire response vehicles.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 7633 amending the Fiscal
Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program Budget, authorizing a supplemental budget
appropriation for the Fire Station 106 Garage Door Replacement Project in the amount of
$31,750, offset by a reduction in the Capital Outlay Fund; and approve a contract with
Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. for the Fire Station 106 Garage Door Replacement
Project in the amount of $192,500, with a 10% contingency.
BACKGROUND
The PWSD is responsible for the maintenance and repair of all City facilities, including all
Fire Station Facilities. The garage doors at Fire Station 106 are original to the facility and

have been in service since 1995. Due to their age and continuous use, the doors have
begun to fail and need to be replaced. The Fire Station 106 garage doors operate at a
significantly reduced speed and require constant maintenance. This delay poses a
concern for emergency response operations. Ensuring reliable and efficient garage door
performance is essential for the timely deployment of emergency vehicles to maintain
public safety. The Fiscal Year 2024-25 CIP provides for the replacement of six garage
doors at Fire Station 106.
As part of this project, the six existing garage doors and related mechanisms will be
removed and properly disposed of. Six new commercial-grade overhead doors will be
installed, along with updated motorized systems to ensure smooth and consistent
operation. The existing push-button control systems will be retained and reconnected to
the new door mechanisms. Additionally, the new systems will be integrated into the
station’s existing electrical panel to maintain compatibility and continuity of operations.
DISCUSSION
A Notice Inviting Bids was published in accordance with City Council Resolution No. 7483,
and bid packages were distributed to contractors that perform this type of work. On May
1, 2025, the City Clerk received two bids with the following results:
Rank Bidder Location Base Bid
1. Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. Yucca Valley, CA $ 192,500
2. S& R Builds Inc. Anaheim, CA $ 239,550
The bid documents were reviewed for content and the contractors’ background and recent
projects were investigated. Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. was determined to be
the lowest responsive bidder and is qualified to perform the work as defined in the bid
documents. Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc. has successfully provided similar
services for municipal agencies including the Cities of Palm Springs and Los Alamitos, as
well as other Fire Stations and Police Departments.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
This Project is considered a Class 1 exemption as defined in Section 15301(a) “Existing
Facilities” projects of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), which exempts
projects consisting of alterations to existing facilities like interior partitions, plumbing, and
electrical conveyances.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost for the Fire Station 106 Garage Door Replacement Project is $192,500.

Contract with Precision Garage Doors & Gates Inc.

Page 3 of 3
With the request for a 10% contingency, the total potential project cost would be
$211,750. Funds in the amount of $180,000 have been budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2024-
25 Capital Improvement Program budget for the Fire Station 106 Garage Door
Replacement Project. Therefore, a supplemental budget appropriation of $31,750 is being
requested from the Capital Outlay Fund. This increase was not anticipated at the time of
budget development and is largely due to the rising cost of materials in the construction
industry, especially with metal parts and mechanisms from overseas.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council determine that the Fire Station 106 Garage Door
Replacement project is a Class 1 exemption under the California Environmental Quality
Act (“CEQA”); and adopt Resolution No. 7633 amending the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital
Improvement Program Budget, authorizing a supplemental budget appropriation for the
Fire Station 106 Garage Door Replacement Project in the amount of $31,750, offset by a
reduction in the Capital Outlay Fund; and approve a contract with Precision Garage Doors
& Gates Inc. for the Fire Station 106 Garage Door Replacement Project in the amount of
$192,500, with a 10% contingency.
