AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A DEDUCTIVE CHANGE
ORDER TO THE ALTEN CONSTRUCTION, INC. CONTRACT FOR CITY OF
SAN RAFAEL ESSENTIAL FACILITIES CONSTRUCTION PROJECT — FIRE
STATIONS #52 AND #57, IN AN AMOUNT OF APPROXIMATELY $850,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a deductive
change order modifying the construction contract awarded to Alten Construction, Inc., upon completion
of negotiations with Alten.
BACKGROUND: In 2014, the City hired Mary McGrath Architects and Kitchell to develop the
Essential Facilities Strategic Plan for the City of San Rafael. The goal of this Strategic Plan was to create
a thorough and operationally forward -thinking Essential Facilities Strategic Plan for the City of San
Rafael. The Plan guided the City of San Rafael through the implementation of the replacement and/or
seismic upgrade of the City's essential services buildings, here -in referred to as "essential facilities", to
ensure that the essential facilities within the City are capable of serving the citizens in the event of a
major earthquake and other potential disasters.
The Strategic Plan identified that the existing Fire Stations (FS) #52 and #57 are past their useful life and
therefore, were recommended to be replaced. They are proposed to be replaced at their existing locations
with increased response capacity by enlarging each station to allow the placement of a medic company at
these locations. In addition, FS #52 is the training location for the SRFD and this site will include a
replacement training classroom and tower.
The successful bidder, Alten Construction, Inc., proposed to construct the two fire station projects for
$19,940,000, above the consultant's estimate of $17,600,000. This difference of more than $2.3 million
must be reduced or offset in order to ensure that the City has sufficient funding to construct the remainder
of the Measure E Essential Facilities program.

SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
ANALYSIS: By separate action earlier on this agenda, the City Council has been asked to award the
contract for construction of new Fire Stations #52 and #57 to Alten Construction, Inc. In recommending
the award to Alten Construction, Inc., Staff noted and recommended that the contract should subsequently
be revised through a deductive change -order to reduce the total construction costs for the project.
City Staff and its consultants have worked with the successful bidder, Alten Construction, Inc. to identify
a series of deductive changes that provide an opportunity to save significantly on the construction cost
while not having a significant impact on the useful life of the buildings or impacting Fire Department
response times. The team has identified more than $800,000 in savings and is in the process of
concluding the negotiations with Alten. The most cost-saving examples include changing bi-fold
apparatus bay doors to more traditional roll -up doors at FS #52, renegotiating and reducing the cost of the
bi-fold doors at FS #57, changing the concrete block exterior privacy wall material from concrete block to
a decorative fence at FS #52, removing the brick facade to expose the concrete block at FS #52, changing
the traction elevator to a hydraulic elevator at FS #52, and numerous other changes in the interior of both
buildings. In total, the deductions will reduce the overall construction cost of these two projects by
approximately $850,000. This change -order is being negotiated with Alten Construction, Inc. and Staff
plans to have it available for execution immediately following the award and execution of the contract for
the construction project.
In addition, as noted in the earlier staff report, Staff has identified contingency funding previously set
aside for design, permitting, other pre -construction activities, and construction contingency during design
to offset the remainder of the difference between the consultants estimate and Alten's proposal.
Deduction
Category -Eden Expense Code Amount Note(s)
Approximately Deductive Change Order (Alten Construction,
Construction -02 $850,000 Inc.)
Total Deduction TBD
FISCAL IMPACT: The Council approved contract amount of $19,940,000 plus a construction
contingency of $115,000 for a total construction cost of $20,055,000 was approved with the
understanding that this change -order would immediately follow. Upon incorporation of this change -
order, the contract with Alten Construction, Inc. will be for an amount of approximately $19,100,000 plus
a contingency amount of five percent ($955,000) reserved by the City for unforeseen conditions, bringing
the total construction cost to $20,055,000. Therefore there is no fiscal impact on Measure E funding.
OPTIONS:
1. Adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a deductive change order to the
contract with Alten Construction, Inc. If this option is chosen, the change -order will be executed
immediately following execution of the construction contract and construction will commence as
soon as possible.
2. Council can choose not to adopt the resolution and direct staff to continue negotiations with
Alten Construction, Inc. to further reduce the cost. Staff does not recommend this alternative
because we believe that additional cost cutting will result in potential impacts to the useful life of
the buildings or will impact the response times of the Fire Department. However both Alten and
the City team will continue to look for opportunities to save money as the project progresses into
construction.
