On May 8, 1986 , Council approved an agreement with Architect
Robert F. Armstrong to design a new fire station at 80 East
"J" Street. Staff is now requesting an amendment to this
-contract to provide for additional compensation to reflect a
change in the scope of the project.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt resolution approving amended agreement and appropriate
necessary funds.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Sometime after this agreement was signed, the City undertook
a project which included the replacement of underground fuel
tanks throughout City facilities, including the Fire Station
at 80 East "J" Street. As a result, we have asked the
project architect to include a new electronically controlled
underground fuel tank in the design of this new facility.
The overall fire station project was reviewed by the Design
Review Committee, and this proecess resulted in substantial
changes in the design of the fire station. These changes
have required the architect to redesign the roof framing plan,
foundation plan, exterior elevations, and section/details.
Section 14 . 7 . 1 of our agreement with the architect states that
if the scope of the project is materially changed, then the
compensation shall be equitably adjusted.
The design changes that will be made as a result of the
recommendations of the Design Review Committee will require
the expenditure of sixty-six hours at $40 per hour (66 X $40 =
$2 , 640) by the architect. The engineering of the underground
fuel tank will require the services of a Mechanical Fuel Systems
