Award of Bid -Contract No. 12-04, Civic Center Generator Installation
Prepared by Steven Yee, Public Works Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The Civic Center Generator Project (CIP No. 930008) will replace the existing Civic Center
emergency generator with a larger unit capable of powering the entire Civic Center site. This
contract will install pre-purchased generator equipment and complete all Civic Center
modifications for the new equipment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The adopted Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Budget includes $610,100 in funding for the Civic Center
Generator Project. The total project funding includes $35,100 for project design and
administration and $575,000 for equipment and improvements. On February 7, 2012 the City
Council approved a contract to purchase generator equipment in an amount not to exceed
$166,688. This reduced the budget available for installation and improvements from $575,000
to $408,312.
The project is funded by General Fund ($464,505) and the Equipment Replacement Internal
Service Fund (ISF) ($145,595). The proposed contract is for the installation of pre-purchased
generator equipment and completion of Civic Center modifications to accommodate the new
equipment. The lowest responsive bid, including a 10% contingency, is $245,300, which is less
than the available funds.

DESCRIPTION:
On June 21, 2011, the City Council approved the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
2010-2015, Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Update, which included the Civic Center Generator Project.
The Civic Center Generator Project will replace the existing Civic Center emergency generator
with a larger unit capable of powering the entire Civic Center site. The project also includes
modifications to the existing generator enclosure to fit in the new larger generator as well as
modification to the Civic Center existing electrical rooms.
Due to the extensive lead time in ordering and delivering an emergency generator, a previous
contract (Contract No. 11-13) pre-purchased the generator equipment in advance of this
Contract to install and perform the necessary Civic Center modifications. The scope of work in
Contract No. 12-04 includes modifying the generator enclosure to accommodate the larger
generator, installing new electrical system and modifying Civic Center loading dock area to
accommodate new electrical equipment.
A total of seven (7) bids was received on March 8, 2012, and a summary of the bids is provided
