RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2015/166 accepting as complete the construction contract work performed by Fort Bragg Electric, Inc., for the New Generator at 2530 Arnold Drive, Martinez project, as recommended by the Public Works Director.

DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to file with the County Recorder a certified copy of Resolution No. 2015/166 and the attached Notice of Completion no later than fifteen (15) days after adoption.

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact resulting from the adoption of the Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion, but the adoption and recording will limit the period for filing stop payment notices and bond claims on this contract.

BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff's Records and Identification Unit moving in requires 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, support operations and must have a backup power source through a generator. The generator also serves as backup to the Health Services Department's Data Center on the third floor. Both the Sheriff's Department and Health Services Department operations require a backup power source and otherwise will not function.

On December 2, 2014, the County entered into a construction contract with Fort Bragg Electric, Inc., for the subject project. The above contract has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. It is recommended that the work covered by the contract be accepted by adopting a Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion (Resolution No. 2015/166). The project acceptance includes a withhold amount of $6,000 to ensure the completion of project closeout items.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Accepting a contract as complete is standard procedure and allows for proper closeout of the contract. If the above contract is not accepted as complete, the period for filing stop payment notices and bond claims may be extended.
