DESCRIPTION:
On June 1, 2010 the City Council awarded a contract to Suarez Munoz Construction
Incorporated for the construction of the Dublin Sports Grounds Phase IV. The bid award
including an allowance' for contingencies was $654,500. Given the bid results and available
construction budget, after award of contract Staff sought to expand the initial scope of work to
include the irrigation and turf area surrounding ball diamond #5. On June 22, 2010 the City
Council approved Change Order #1 which increased the maximum contract amount by
$109,065 ($99,150 for Change order No. 1 plus a contingency of $9,915). This created a total
contract cost not to exceed $763,565. The agreement for improvements was funded entirely
from an East Bay Regional Park District Grant. Overall, project improvements included grading,
soil preparation, sand-channel drainage, irrigation system and re-seeding of approximately 6.0
acres.
Having reached substantial completion on December 8, 2010, Suarez Munoz was provided a
punch list of items for correction. On June 2, 2011 City Staff and Suarez Munoz.reviewed the
remaining items on the punch list. At this juncture, Staff is requesting that the City Council
authorize the City Manager to accept all final improvements on the project and allow remaining
punch list items to be complete as part of the one-year warranty period.
The City presently holds a performance bond in the amount of $595,000 to provide the
necessary security for the performance of the work involved. As the work is now substantially
complete, the perFormance security requirement can be reduced, in accordance with authority
contained in Section 66499.7 of the Government Code, to an amount necessary to guarantee
warranty of the work for a one-year period following acceptance of the work. The Contractor will
provide a new maintenance bond in the amount of $59,500 which is 10% of the original bond
amount, and is sufficient to cover the one-year guarantee period.
Upon City Manager acceptance of the project, Staff will file a notice of completion with the
Alameda County Clerk. The City will release the remaining retention thirty-five days subsequent
to recording the notice of completion with Alameda County.
NOTICING REQUIREMENTS/PUBLIC OUTREACH:
A copy of the Staff Report was distributed to Suarez Munoz Construction Incorporated. A
notice of completion will be filed with Alameda County.
