WHEREAS, on May 15, 2007 the Director of General Services received informal bids
for the Lauderbach Park fencing project; and
WHEREAS, the Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed project
for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that
the project qualifies for a Class I Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 1530 I (Existing
Facilities) of the State CEQA Guidelines because the proposed project consists of minor
alterations to an existing public facility involving negligible or no expansion of the site's existing
use. Thus, no further environmental review is necessary; and
WHEREAS, the City invited three contractors to informally bid on the fencing
improvements but only one contractor was responsive; and
WHEREAS, the project was divided into two phases. Phase I was contemplated to be
the fencing element of the project. Staff sought informal bids for the installation of the fencing
contemplated by the project. The fencing element of the project was broken into two distinct
components. One portion known as "Area A Fencing" consists of erecting a 6' high fence with
gates at the Oxford Street side of the Boys and Girls Club. "Area B Fencing" is at the rear of the
Boys and Girls Club, the park play area will be enclosed with a 4' high fence with gates; and
WHEREAS, on May 15, 2007, the Director of General Services received an informal bid
for the "Lauderbach Park Fencing (PR-295)" project. The price for phase I in the bid proposal
was $72,758.00. The price for the fencing work to Area A, the area in front of the Boys & Girls
Club only, was $38,833.00; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends awarding the informal contract to Atlas Fencing in the
amount of $38,833.00 and proposes authorizing the purchasing agent to execute the contract;
and
WHEREAS, as the budget documents for fiscal year 2007/2008 are already completed,
staff recommends that the 2007/2008 budget changes contemplated in this action be brought
back to City Council in July of2007; and
