18516, MSC Seismic Improvements, to fund the construction contract with Anderson
Pacific Engineering Construction, Inc.
Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute a contrhct with Anderson Pacific
Engineering Construction, Inc. in the amount of $518,800 for construction of temporary
seismic bracing at the Municipal Service Center (MSC).
Authorize the City Manager or her designee to negotiate and execute one or more

Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 2 to a contract with
Dames & Moore in the amount of $45,000. The amendment will provide for inspection
and provide construction oversight services.
DISCUSSION
Project Description
A seismic upgrade study by Dames & Moore (July 28, 1997) identified MSC Buildings A,
B and C as needing significant work in order to meet current seismic codes. The buildings
were constructed in 1965, and were designed to meet the standards of the 1961 Uniform
CMR:188:98 Page 1 of 4
Building Code (UBC), which had roughly half the level of seismic loading requirements as
the current UBC. As a result, the buildings pose a potential hazard when subjected to a
significant seismic event,
As an interim measure, at the December 15, 1997 City Council meeting staff was directed
to prepare construction documents and return with a recommendation for an award of a
contract and a BAO to construct the improvements (CMR:491:97). The work to be
performed under the contract with Anderson Pacific Engineering Construction, Inc.
(Attachment C) is for construction of temporary seismic bracing at the MSC.
Staff has proposed a new Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project seismic upgrade
feasibility study for FY 1998-99 to evaluate potential options and costs for a permanent
seismic upgrade or replacement of MSC buildings A, B and C. The feasibility study will
take one to two years to complete, and any recommended improvements would take an
additional two to three years to finish. Thus, the recommended temporary seismic bracing
construction is expected to be in place for three to five years.
Bid Process
Pre-qualification of bidders started on February 12. Of the eight contractors contacted, four
declined to bid because they were too busy. Notices inviting formal bids for construction of
temporary seismic bracing at the Municipal Service Center were giyen out on March 10,
1998 to four pre-qualified contractors. The bidding period was 14 days. A pre-bid meeting
was held on March 10, 1998; 4 bidders attended the meeting. Bids were received from four
qualified contractors on March 24, 1998, as listed on the attached bid summary (Attachment
A). Bids ranged from a high of.$789,430 to a lowbid of $441,647. The bid of the apparent
low bidder, DEVCON Construction, contained a mathematical error and was recalculated
using unit prices to yield a total base bid of $418,909. DEVCON Construction subsequently
decided to withdraw its bid instead of contracting to do the project for the lower amount.
Consistent with City policies, the award then goes to the next lowest bidder.
Staff has reviewed all bids submitted and recommends that the bid of $518,800 submitted
by Anderson Pacific Engineering Construction, Inc. be accepted and that Anderson Pacific
Engineering Construction, Inc. be declared the lowest responsible bidder. The bid is 33
percent below the engineer’s estimate of $770,000. Since the MSC is located near the Bay
and at sea level, a construction contingency of 15 percent is requested to mitigate the
potential effects of poor soil conditions or groundwater intrusion when the new concrete
footings are poured. As this work will be done near the buildings, there may also be
unforeseen conflicts with the existing footings.
Staff checked references supplied by the contractor for previous work performed and found
no significant complaints. Staff also checked with the Contractor’s State License Board and
found that the contractor has an active license on file.
CMR: 188:98 Page 2 of 4
Contract Amendment
Amendment No. 2 to the existing consultant agreement with Dames & Moore (Attachment
D) i:~rovides for the services of an inspector to conduct daily construction oversight and
specialized testing and inspection, and is recommended due to limited staff resources and the
need for special qualifications that staff does not have.
RESOURCE IMPACT
In order to expedite the.design for the temporary bracing, Council authorized advancing
monies from CIP 18508 (Public Buildings Structural Improvements) to fund the consultant
fees for the temporary bracing feasibility studyand design. The CIP was to be reimbursed
at the time of the construction contract award. It has since been determined, however, that
CIP 18508 contains roughly $200,000 in surplus funds which can be disencumbered. These
are monies leftover from a variety of construction projects that have either been completed
or have had their scope of work reduced. It is recommended that these funds be used to
finance part of the design and construction costs for the bracing as shown below:
Desi_ma & Construction Costs:
Construction Contract (Anderson Pacific)$518,800
Construction Contingency $ 77,820
Temporary Bracing Feasibility Study (Dames & Moore) $ 25,000
Design & Construction Admin. (Dames & Moore)$ 50,000
Inspection Services (Dames & Moore-Amend. No. 2)$ 45,000
Miscellaneous Costs (Copying, etc.) - Public Works $ 5,000
TOTAL BAO $721,620
The design and construction costs can be financed through use of the General Fund Budget
Stabilization Reserve and Utilities Enterprise Funds which can be proportioned according
to departmental use at the MSC. Credits for General Fund fmancing contributions have been
given for the CIP 18508 monies in the BAO (Attachment B).
POLICY IMPLICATIONS
This report does not represent changes to existing City policy. The recommendations are
consistent with existing policy direction regarding the seismic retrofitting of existing City
buildings.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The bracing is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act.
