Approve and authorize the Public Works Director to sign a Notice of Completion for the “Corporation Yard Wash Rack Improvement Project,” Contract No. 706787, and record it within 15 days of actual completion of the work.

SUMMARY

The Corporation Yard Wash Rack Improvement Project is nearing completion.

DISCUSSION

Heavy equipment is maintained at the County Corporation Yard on Breslauer Way. A wash rack is equipped with an oil/grease separator and plumbed into the public sewer system.  On September 19, 2017, the Board approved plans and specifications to construct an alternate wash rack.  On October 26, 2017, five bids were received.  On November 7, 2017, the Board awarded the contract to the low bidder, Whitehawk Construction. The project is nearing completion.

ALTERNATIVES

The Board may decline to file a Notice of Completion. The lien period would extend for 90 days instead of 30 days. Final payment to the contractor would be delayed by 60 days.

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

The County Administrative Office has reviewed this recommendation.

FINANCING

The total cost of the project, including design, construction, inspection and contingencies is estimated to be $150,000.  Adequate funds have been included in the Adopted FY 2017/18 LB&I budget. There is no General Fund impact.
