RECOMMENDATION(S):

(1) APPROVE the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Equipment Replacement Project at 2530 Arnold Drive, Martinez, and



(2) DETERMINE that the Project is a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1(d) Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Section 15301(d) of the CEQA Guidelines, and

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

(3) DIRECT the Director of the Conservation and Development Department to file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk, and

(4) AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to arrange for payment of a $25 fee to the Department of Conservation and Development Department for processing and a $50 fee to the County Clerk for filing the Notice of Exemption.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% General Fund (Facilities Life-Cycle Investment Program Fund). The project is estimated to total $1,272,860.

BACKGROUND:

The project consists of installing four new rooftop air conditioning units, updating and upgrading the electrical panels and shut-off devices that serve the replacement air conditioning units. No changes to the structure of the building or other support equipment are required. The work will be performed utilizing cranes that will rig and hoist the new units and remove the existing older units.

On November 10, 2015, the Board of Supervisors awarded a job order contract (JOC) for repair, remodeling, and other repetitive work to be performed pursuant to the Construction Task Catalog to each of Sea Pac Engineering, Inc., John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction, each in the amount of $2,000,000. On September 20, 2016, the Board approved a change order to increase the contract amount to $4,500,000 for both John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction. This project is expected to be performed by one of the three JOC contractors. A task order catalogue has been prepared for the JOC Contractor to perform the HVAC system replacement and associated upgrades. In the event that it is not performed by a JOC contractor, the Public Works Department will go to the Board for approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise and solicit bids.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the project is not approved, the HVAC units will continue to deteriorate ultimately resulting in higher maintenance costs and failure.
