City of Palo Alto City Manager’s Report 3 TO:HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL FROM:CITY MANAGER DEPARTMENT: Public Works AGENDA DATE: March 18, 1996 CMR:179:96 SUBJECT:Amendment #2 to Consultant Agreement for Americans with Disabilities Act Improvements, Building Interiors, CIP 19309 REQUEST As part of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance CIP 19309, the interior of City buildings need to be improved to conform to ADA standards. Council is requested to approve an amendment to an existing consultant agreement for the design of ADA improvements to the Cubberley Community and Cultural Centers and for performing a study to provide ADA access in the City Council Chambers. RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends that Council: Amend the consultant agreement with CSS Associates, Architects to include an additional $85,200 for schematic and design services for the ADA improvement to the Cubberley and Cultural Centers and a study of the City Council Chambers. Authorize the City Manager or her designee to negotiate and execute one or more change orders to the consultant agreement with CSS Associates, Architects, the total amount of change orders which shall not exceed $13,000. POLICY IMPLICATIONS Approval of this action does not represent any change to existing policies. Approval of this recommendation is consistent with the ADA Transition Plan adopted by Council in 1992, CMR: 144:92. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As part of the Americans with Disabilities Act Compliance CIP, Council approved an agreement with CSS Associates Architects for $50,343 to design the Main Library improvements and to develop the scope of work for the remainder of ADA improvements to other City building interiors (CMR: 112:95). Staff indicated that it would return to Council for CMR:179:96 Page 1 of 3 approval of further amendments to the agreement for additional design services, upon completing the development of the scope of work. Amendment #2 to the CSS Associates agreement provides for the design of the next phase of building interior improvements including the Cubberley Community and Cultural Centers and for an ADA accessibility study of the City Council Chambers. Cubberley Communi .ty Center and Cultural Center Work at these facilities will include modifying restrooms, doors, sinks, water fountains; adding signage and handrails; and providing wheel chair platforms. Following are consultant tasks: Preparation of schematic design plans which will be presented to the client, City staff who manage the facility, and the Architectural Review Board for review and approval; Preparation of construction documents; and Attendance at meetings with clients, board/committees and staff. Council Chambers ¯ Preparation of a study investigating alternative solutions to providing public access to the Council Chambers seating area per ADA requirements. The fee schedule relating to the $85,200 cost of the Cubberley Community Center and Cultural Center schematic design and construction documents and the Council Chambers study is indicated in Exhibit A. Staff is recommending a 15 percent contingency authorization to cover the cost of related but unforeseen work which is typically discovered during remodeling in older buildings. This will occur in retrofitting the restrooms to make them ADA accessible. Staffwill return to Council next year for award of the construction contract and approval of the construction services for the Cubberley Community and Cultural Centers improvements in the 1996/97 Fiscal Year, if the CIP program budget is approved by Council. Staff will also return to Council with amendments to the consultant agreement, as funds become available in the CIP budget for design and construction administration services on future phases of ADA improvements. FISCAL IMPACT Funds for the design phase of the contract are included in ADA Improvements, Building Interiors, CIP 19309. Funding for the construction is in the proposed 1996/97 fiscal year CIP program budget. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines. 1 CM:R:179:96 Page 2 of 3 ATTACHMENT Consultant Amendment #2 PREPARED BY: George Bagdon, Assistant Director of Public Works DEPARTMENT HEAD REVIEW: GLENN S.
