On June 23, 1987, the City Council by Resolution No. 13094 approved awarded a

Fourth Avenue/"E" Street to Select Electric, Inc. The contract expires on
September 16, 1987.
The contractor has notified us of a material delivery delay problem and has
requested a contract time extension of 20 working days (see letter dated
August 17, 1987). We concur with the contractor's request.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt a resolution approving extension of
contract time to October 20, 1987.
• BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Select Electric, Inc. has requested a contract time extension of 20 working
days due to a material delivery delay problem. Their supplier, Coast Electric
Company, advised Select Electric that the sole source of the type G pedestrian
signals will not be ready to ship the material until the week of September 25,
1987 (see letter dated August 13, 1987).
Select Electric is continuing work of the project and will require about 10 to
15 working days to complete the installations once the pedestrian signals are
received. Staff, therefore, recommends that the 20 working day extension they
requested be approved. The contractor has worked diligently and is expected
to complete the project within the time extension period.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
