BACKGROUND
The Grille, located at the The Cube - Ice and Entertainment Center, Powered by FivePoint
Valencia (The Cube) currently services thousands of patrons for various events and programs
offered at the facility seven days a week. The Grille opened to the public in January 2022 and
has since expanded to feature Maria's Italian Deli menu items and catering services. The
proposed project will provide for the expansion of the kitchen area to include a beverage center,
which will accommodate larger groups of patrons and provide new opportunities for additional
types of special events. The upgrades will include a countertop area with seating, new fixtures,

lighting, flooring, and plumbing.
Since its opening, The Cube has transformed into a multipurpose entertainment venue and
continues to provide a boost to the local economy through tourism dollars, film revenue, and
local sponsorships. The Cube offers in-house programs that cater to a variety of ice sports, and
provides a space for birthday parties, meetings, special events, and more. Thousands of patrons
have visited The Cube to either participate in or watch a wide variety of offerings, such as
California Amateur Hockey Association tournaments, UCLA Men's Ice Hockey team games,
high school and club hockey games, figure skating shows, and more. The expanded kitchen area
will ensure an optimal guest experience and further enhance the facility's ability to attract large-
scale non -ice events.
This project exemplifies the City of Santa Clarita's (City) commitment to improving the quality
of life of its residents and supports the Santa Clarita 2025 Enhancing Economic Vitality theme
action item: Complete the rehabilitation and rebranding of the ice rink to generate tourism and
large special events.
On March 2, 2022, an invitation to bid was prepared and posted on BidNet. The bid was
downloaded by 12 companies and one bid was submitted and opened by Purchasing on
March 17, 2022. The bid was deemed non -responsive.
In the event the City does not receive a responsive bid for a Public Works project, the Public
Contract Code, Section 22038(c) authorizes a public agency to negotiate the award of a contract.
Section 22038(c) specifically states:
"If no bids are received through the formal or informal procedure, the project may be
performed by the employees of the public agency by force account, or negotiated contract
without further complying with this article."
As a result, staff requested informal bids from the following contractors:
Company Location Bid Amount
E.L. Engineering Corporation La Verne, CA $352,543
Waisman Construction Inc. Canoga Park, CA $537,000
Staff recommends awarding the contract to E.L. Engineering Corporation, the lowest responsive
bidder. E.L. Engineering Corporation possesses a valid Class A State Contractor's License and is
in good standing with the Contractors State License Board. Their bid has been reviewed for
accuracy and conformance to the contract documents and was found to be complete.
Staff conducted a job walk at The Cube, where E.L. Engineering Corporation demonstrated an
in-depth understanding of the project needs and provided a detailed scope of work and approach
to the project. They examined and identified key construction factors that will need to be
addressed based on the design specifications. Based on their experience with similar projects and
the thoroughness of their proposal, staff recommends awarding the contract to E.L. Engineering
Corporation.

Due to the volatile bidding environment and high construction activity throughout Southern
California, the City continues to receive fewer bids on projects at ahigher cost. The project
budget of $250,000 is insufficient to complete the construction of this project. The appropriation
request of $150,000 will cover the remaining contract cost, administrative costs, and staff time.
The requested contingency will cover any unforeseen issues or additional needs that may occur
during the construction process. The remaining funds in the budget will cover staff oversight,
plan checks, building permits, related labor compliance, and administrative costs.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Upon approval of the recommended actions, adequate funds will be available in project
expenditure account F1025228-516101 (American Rescue Plan Act Fund) to support the
recommended contract and all anticipated project costs.
