RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Waterproofing Associates, Inc., subject to approval by the County Administrator and approval as to form by County Counsel, to increase the payment limit by $2,500,000 to a new payment limit of $3,500,000, with no change to the original term February 1, 2018 through January 31, 2021, to provide building waterproofing services, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This cost is to be funded through Facilities Services maintenance budget. (100% General Fund)

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, roofing services with Waterproofing Associates, Inc., will not continue.

BACKGROUND:

Public Works Facilities Maintenance is responsible for roofing repairs and maintenance and general building health. Important in exterior building maintenance is the waterproofing of vertical walls, foundations, and other parts of the structures. Facilities staff performs small roof repairs, and responds to urgent requests for roof leaks, but has neither the equipment nor the training to conduct vertical waterproofing or foundation sealing. As bid on Bidsync # 1706-228, Building Waterproofing, Waterproofing Associates, Inc. has been awarded this work. Public Works has exhausted the original payment limit requested on this contract and is requesting an increase.
