BACKGROUND As part of the Santa Clarita 2025 Strategic Plan, the City Council identified a goal of completing energy efficiency upgrades to all City of Santa Clarita (City) facilities. Completing these upgrades aims to save money, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and meet growing energy demand. Following a competitive procurement process, on September 27, 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to Climatec, LLC. (Climatec) to complete the City's Energy Efficiency Program. Since its award, the project has successfully implemented approximately 75 percent of the Energy Conservation Measures (ECM) identified in the project, including: Page 1 Packet Pg. 68 1:0 • Heating, ventilation, and A/C (HVAC) upgrades • Water conservation measures at City parks • Interior and exterior lighting upgrades • Sports field lighting upgrades • Solar canopies at the Santa Clarita Sports Complex and Newhall Community Center The project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024, after which the savings' full impact will begin. One of the upcoming initiatives that will be completed this summer includes the installation of solar canopies in the City Hall parking lot. During the development of this portion of the project, staff recognized that repairs to the parking lot surface were required. To efficiently complete both the solar canopy installation and the repairs to the parking lot surface, staff recommends amending the contract with Climatec to include this additional work in their project scope. The amendment would allow Climatec to coordinate the schedules of various subcontractors to ensure the project is completed in the most cost effective manner, with as little disruption possible to visitor and employee parking at City Hall. The specifications for this work were prepared by City staff and provided to Climatec to solicit quotes from four potential sub -contractors. Climatec received a quote from one company, Toro Enterprises, to complete the work. The quote has been reviewed by City staff and determined to be consistent with the current market costs. If approved, Climatec would oversee the repairs at the City Hall parking lot, which include filling cracks, applying a double seal coat, restriping parking spaces, and adding a speed hump. This work is scheduled to begin in July, and will take approximately seven weeks to complete. ALTERNATIVE ACTION Other action as determined by the City Council. FISCAL IMPACT Upon approval of the recommended actions, adequate funds will be available in expenditure accounts R0033264-516101 (Measure R Local Return) and R0033723-516101 (Facilities Fund) to support the recommended contract.
