BACKGROUND The Los Angeles County Fire Department requested that the City take over construction of the Temporary Fire Station No. 104 after the County's low bidder was deemed non-responsive. The scope of work for the project consists of installing pre -manufactured steel buildings; relocating a trailer, stairway, and handicap ramp from the Los Angeles County Fire Department's Pacoima facility; and constructing paved areas and fencing. On June 29, 2004, the City Clerk's office received the following bids for the project: Company Amount Location DuMarc Corporation $359,900.00 Placentia, CA Evans & Son, Inc. $434,000.00 Santa Clarita, CA The Engineer's Estimate, including the 20 percent contingency, for the Temporary Fire Station No. 104 project is $250,000.00 to $350,000.00. The lowest responsive bid was submitted by DuMarc Corporation in the amount of $359,990.00. After reviewing the bid summary, staff verified the apparent low bidder's contractor's license, sureties company, and project references. Based on the investigation, staff recommends awarding the construction contract to DuMarc Corporation, the lowest responsive bidder, in the amount of $359,990.00. The current balance in Account No. F3011455-8001 is $267,421.53. Staff is requesting an additional $158,500.00 to be allocated from the developer fees fund to account for the shortfall. Construction is scheduled to start in August 2004, and the contractor will be given 60 working days to complete the work after the date construction commences.

FISCAL IMPACT Funds for this project have been approved and budgeted in Account No. F3011455-8001 (developer fees) for Fiscal Year 2004/2005 with a current balance of $267,421.53. Appropriating $158,500.00 from the developer fees fund leaves a remaining balance of $4,166,898.00 in the Fire District developer fees fund.
