6.2. E. - Page 1 RE PO RT To the Honorable Mayor and City Council From the Cit Mana er July 22, 2013 SUBJECT Final Acceptance — Police Facility Gun Range Upgrades RECOMMENDATION By motion, accept the Police Facility Gun Range Upgrades and authorize the release of bonds and retention according to city procedures. BACKGROUND On December 3, 2012, Council awarded the construction contract for the improvements to the police facility gun range to provide additional revenue options from solely use of hand guns to rifles. The gun range was upgraded to include new baffles, bullet trap, safety ceiling and steel wall protection. With the new improvements, additional savings are anticipated with reducing the frequency of removing the spent lead from the gun range by replacing the bullet trap. The improvements will also provide other law enforcement agency more options to rent the facility. ANALYSIS Construction started in February 2013 and final walkthrough was conducted in May 2013. The project was completed on June 11, 2013. The contract was awarded for a base bid of $171,357. The project was successfully completed in accordance with the plans and specifications. Credit change order was issued totaling $1,623.75. The final contract amount is $169,733.25 which is 0.9% less than the initially awarded contract amount. Credit resulted from deduction of the steel tube support for the safety ceiling which was not installed. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose not to accept the project and/or authorize the release of bonds and retention which would be contrary to the terms of the contract, prior Council action, and the public contracting code. FISCAL IMPACT Sufficient funding for this construction agreement was previously approved and appropriated in Fiscal Years 2011 /2012 and 2012/2013 budget as Capital Projects Fund — Police Range Upgrades.
