which is 10% of the final contract amount, and is sufficient to cover the one-year guarantee period.
Upon City Council acceptance of the project, Staff will file a notice of completion with Alameda County
Clerk. The City will release the 10% retention thirty-five days subsequent to recording the notice of
completion with Alameda County.
It is the recommendation of Staff that the City Council take the following action:

3) Authorize Staffto accept a maintenance bond in the amount of $1,753 at a furore date.
