· Minor landscape plantings and irrigation (rudimentary shrub and vine plantings only). · Necessary site work and utilities supply (water, sanitary sewer, and electrical service). Add Alternate Bid Items. In order to allow the Council flexibility when awarding the project, and to attempt to keep the project within the recommended cost of $290,000, staff directed the design consultant to structure the bid proposal with a number of "Add Alternate" items that could be awarded should the budget allow. These alternate items would generally enhance the appearance and maintainability of the finished project. The "Add Alternate" items and staff recommendation regarding including these upgrades in the overall project are as follows: ADD ALTERNATES AND STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS SUMMARY Cost STAFF RECOMMENDATION Al - Provide wood slats and wood $9,000 This work is an integral component of trellis near the door outside the the facility design.

In order to eliminate the possibility of "bid shopping," California Public Contract Code requires that the alternate bid items be awarded in the order listed. For instance, should the Council wish to include the electrically operatedflush valve item (A4), it must also award the wood slats, wood beam and wooden benches items (AI through A3). As a result, the add alternates are included in the bid on a priority order. Staff has reviewed the necessity and costs related to these items and determined that only the first three (3) should be completed at this time. If SR 06:086 Page 3
