i <br /> � <br /> Public Works Memorandum <br /> NO. 2010-24 <br /> DATE: Apri127, 2010 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor McElroy and City ouncil Members <br /> FROM: Ryan P. McCrady, City Manager <br /> Richard G. Marley, P.E., Director of Public Works � C-� � <br /> � <br /> SUBJECT: Expenditures for Overhead Door Repairs <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: <br /> It is recommended by staffthat the City Council approve the attached resolution approving an <br /> expenditure of$15,490.32 to Midstate Overhead Door, Inc. for the repair of overhead doors at <br /> the Municipal Services Center. <br /> PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION: <br /> No prior Council action had been taken for the repair of these doors. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> There are 361arge overhead doors at the Municipal Services Center. Most of the overhead doors <br /> at this facility have not had a complete overhaul since the building was opened in 1988. As the <br /> result of concerns for safety and winter heat retention due to deteriorating door seals, a local <br /> overhead door repair company which the City was using to do emergency overhead door repairs <br /> was contacted to provide estimates to have the overhead doors brought back to full functionality. <br /> The total cost of repairs exceeded $26,800. The Public Works Department budget had sufficient <br /> funds to contract for all the repairs, however due to spending reduction goals a decision was <br /> made to only proceed with a few of the more urgent repairs. Repairs were made to four doors in <br /> February for$2,426.80 and ten doors were repaired in March for$4,557.22, for a total <br /> expenditure of$6,984.02. The plan was to make more repairs in the future when improved <br /> funding permitted. <br /> Due to a management communication error, Midstate Overhead Door, Inc. was given the go- <br /> ahead to continue repairing the remaining doors. When the error was discovered, additional <br /> repairs totaling $15,490.32 had been completed. All repair work on the doors has been <br /> completed and the contractor is entitled to payment. As is required by law, prevailing wages <br /> were paid for this work. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: There are no known objections to this request. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Richard G. Marley, Director of Public Works. Richard Marley will be <br /> in attendance at the City Council meeting to answer any questions of the Council on this item. <br /> Page � 1 <br />
