THE CITY OF 6 <br /> "" CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT <br /> pLEASANTONL <br /> March 5, 2019 <br /> Operations Services <br /> TITLE: AUTHORIZE ADDITIONAL FUNDING TO "AS-NEEDED" CONTRACTS <br /> BY INCREASING THE CUMULATIVE VALUE FOR VARIOUS OUT- <br /> SOURCED SERVICES RELATED TO FACILITY REPAIRS, STREET <br /> REPAIRS, UTILITY MAINTENANCE, EQUIPMENT REPAIRS, AND <br /> PARK, TRAIL AND STREET MEDIAN MAINTENANCE AND <br /> LANDSCAPING <br /> SUMMARY <br /> To effectively maintain community infrastructure, the City actively seeks a number of <br /> out-sourced contractor services in a broad range of areas, including facility repairs, <br /> streets repairs, utilities (water and sewer) maintenance, equipment repairs, and park, <br /> trail and street median maintenance and landscaping. In March 2017, staff solicited bids <br /> for the services of experienced licensed contractors to perform routine and emergency <br /> "As-Needed" services and repairs by posting a legal publication as well as posting the <br /> notification on the City's website. <br /> In previous years, the City awarded roughly 40 as-needed contracts per cycle, each <br /> contract with an annual not-to exceed amount of $100,000 per fiscal year spending <br /> authority. In June of 2017, the as-needed contract structure was changed to an initial <br /> $1,000,000 cumulative value over the entire duration of the contracts for all as-needed <br /> contracts outlined in this report. The proposed action would increase the cumulative <br /> amount to $1,565,000 for these contracts to carry out all the planned projects for the <br /> remainder of the fiscal year. All Prevailing Wage and/or Engineer News Records <br /> Construction Cost Index for the Northern California region rate changes remain in effect. <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Authorize the City Manager to increase the as-needed contract structure by $565,000 <br /> for the cumulative value of the "As-Needed services" contracts for all planned projects <br /> that are outlined in this report. <br /> FINANCIAL STATEMENT <br /> Contracted services are funded in the Operating, Internal Service Funds and Capital <br /> Improvement budgets for the Divisions that oversee the work. As of February 19, 2019, <br /> the Operations Services Department has spent $848,275.73 in FY 18/19 of the <br /> $1,000,000 allocated funds. With existing projects, upcoming planned projects, and <br /> unforeseen emergency work, staff estimates that they will need an additional $565,000 <br /> for the remainder of the fiscal year. Funds are available in existing budgets. <br />
