BACKGROUND The Pleasanton Senior Center building was constructed in 1991 and has experienced roof leaks when it rains for the past approximately ten years. The amount and extent of these leaks have increased overtime resulting in numerous maintenance efforts to solve leak related problems. As a result of these efforts and after consultation with roofing specialists, it was determined that a whole roof replacement was the best alternative to address leak issues. To that end, the project was authorized in the 2009/2010 Capital Improvement Program. The project consisted of complete removal and replacement of the existing concrete tile roof down to the roof sheathing, including the removal and replacement of the flat portions of the roof which were covered with tar and gravel. GRACE Ice and Water Shield was utilized as underlayment (as used on the Veteran's Memorial Building) in lieu of the existing felt underlayment on all surfaces. Staff replaced the existing concrete tile with material of the same type and color. The tar and gravel portions of the roof (flat roof) were replaced with white PVC roofing material instead of the existing gravel due to its longer life expectancy, reflectivity for better efficiency, and better insulating value. This solution was in line with the desire to create more efficient "Green" improvements whenever possible. DISCUSSION Construction began in September 28, 2009, with the project being substantially completed on November 20, 2009. The project is now ready for acceptance by City Council. Budget Funding for this project included $20,000 (CIP No. 088036) for project design services plus $225,000 allocated in fiscal year 2009 -2010 CIP for construction of the project (CIP 097027) and an additional $43,100 from the Facilities Renovation Fund, as a contingency to meet unforeseen costs, for total project funding of $288,100. The construction contract was awarded in the amount of $237,500 with a 20% contingency available. Project costs included change orders of $12,744 approved to address unforeseen conditions, including dry rot repairs which became evident only upon removal of the old roof. Staff recommends that the project balance of $32,508.17 be transferred back to the Facilities Renovation Fund since that fund was used only to Page 2 of 3
