(4/5ths Vote: Yes No X )
Bonita Electric was awarded the contract for the installation of street lights
on Third Avenue between Palomar Street and Hermosa Street by Resolution
12669. The contract, dated August 26, 1986, has a completion date of October
16, 198b. Bonita Electric has requested a 20 working day extension of
contract time.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt resolution granting 20 working days
extension of contract time, changing the completion date to November 14, 1986.
DISCUSSION:
San Diego Gas and Electric will not be ready to de-energize the overhead power
transmission lines for at least another two weeks. Safety requirements will
not permit our contractor to erect the street light standards until the lines
have been removed or de-energized. A misprint error in the electrical
manufacturer's catalog resulted in the wrong fixtures being delivered. The
contractor is waiting for the correct fixtures to be shipped. A breakdown in
the equipment that makes the light standards has also caused a delay in the
delivery date.
We have reviewed Bonita Electric Company's request for a 20
extension of contract time and find it to be justified. The
approved will change the contract completion date to November 14,
FISCAL IMPACT: PJone.
