RON DRAGOO,SENIOR ENGIN~
RECOMMENDATIONS:Review and reconfirm by four/fifths (4/5)vote,the City Council's
previous action taken on February 21,2012,authorizing staff to continue with the actions
taken to perform emergency repairs to the Abalone Cove Sewer Pump Station located within
the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park.
BACKGROUND
On February 21,2012,the City Council found that an emergency exists,which will not
permit a delay arising from a competitive solicitation for bids to enter into a contract with a
contractor,to perform emergency sewer pump and electrical control panel repairs which are
needed to repair the failing sewer pump station at Abalone Cove's Shoreline Park.
Accordingly,the City Council approved a contract with Multi W Systems,Inc.to re-establish
a safe and operational sewer pump station.
DISCUSSION
Approval of the emergency for this work required a four-fifths (4/5)vote of the City Council
under Public Contract Code Section 22050(a)(1).In addition,Public Contract Code Section
22050(c)(1)requires that when a governing body takes action under Section 22050(a)(1),it
must review this action and reaffirm it by a four-fifths (4/5)vote at each subsequent regularly
scheduled meeting until the work is completed and accepted.
Accordingly,because at the time of writing this report,the sewer pumps and three phase
electrical control panel and converter have been ordered but not yet received and installed,
staff has placed this item on tonight's agenda.This item will be placed on each subsequent
agenda until all the work is completed and the City Council accepts the project as complete.
Delivery of the pumps and control panel are anticipated during the week of April 23,2012.
A-1
Two days are needed to complete the installation of the components;consequently,work
should be completed by May 3,2012.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council review and reconfirm by four/fifths (4/5)vote,their
previous action taken on February 21,2012,authorizing staff to continue with the actions
taken to perform emergency repairs to the Abalone Cove Sewer Pump Station located within
the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park.
