6 - Los Gatos Adult Rec Center Siding ProjectMEETING DATE: 11/07/11 ITEM NO: J COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT DATE: OCTOBER 28, 2011 TO: MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL FROM: GREG LARSON, TOWN MANAGER/r. SUBJECT: PPW JOB NO. 11-22 LOS GATOS ADULT RECREATION CENTER SIDING PROJECT 411-821-2501 AUTHORIZE THE TOWN MANAGER TO AMEND THE CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT WITH BOGARD CONSTRUCTION IN THE AMOUNT OF $9,999.74. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Town Manager to amend the construction agreement with Bogard Construction in the amount of $9,999.74. BACKGROUND: As a component of the Library Project, several site improvements were recognized as needed for the civic center complex. One of the sites identified for improvement was the replacement of the current siding on the Los Gatos -Saratoga Adult Recreation Center. The building siding is approximately 30 years old, and due to sun and weather exposure over the years, is now in need of replacement. In addition, this building has experienced leaks from the siding area over the last several years due to deterioration of the water- proofing material underneath the siding. This project is addressing both the exterior appearance of this building located directly adjacent to the new library, as well as the water intrusion issues associated with leaks during the storm season. In July 2011, the Town Manager was authorized to execute a construction agreement with Bogard Construction in an amount not to exceed $50,962. Additionally, staff was authorized to execute future change orders to the construction contract, as necessary, in an amount not to exceed $5,000. During the work, unforeseen conditions were exposed, comprised primarily of wood rot affecting several areas discovered during siding and door replacement.

The amended total contract amount is $65,961.74 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: This is a project as defined under CEQA but is Categorically Exempt (Section 15301c).
