RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

(3) AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to solicit bids to be received on or about May 19, 2016, and issue bid addenda, as needed, for clarification of the bid documents, provided the involved changes do not significantly increase the construction cost estimate.

(4) DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to publish, at least 14 calendar days before the bid opening date, the Notice to Contractors in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22037, inviting bids for this project.

(5) DIRECT the Public Works Director, or designee, to send notices by email or fax and by U.S. Mail to the construction trade journals specified in Public Contract Code Section 22036 at least 15 calendar days before the bid opening.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Funding from Enterprise I Patient Revenues.

BACKGROUND:

The Affordable Care Act and other recent legislation have resulted in a significant increase in the number of Contra Costa residents who are eligible for subsidized County health services. The proposed expansion at the Pittsburg Health Center will provide the resources required to meet this demand.

The project includes remodeling of approximately 5,900 square feet of interior clinic space located on the 2nd floor of the Pittsburg Health Center at 2311 Loveridge Road, Pittsburg. The scope of work will include demolition of existing interior walls and, construction of new walls, ceilings, flooring, lighting, plumbing, mechanical and electrical work.

Plans and specifications for the project have been prepared for the Public Works Department by The Ratcliff Architects. The construction cost estimate is $2,064,000 and the general prevailing wage rates are on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors and will be the minimum rates paid on this project.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the project is not approved, the facility will be unable to meet the needs of the increased number of Contra Costa County residents eligible for subsidized health services.
