Kenneth C. Gilbert, Director of Public Works August 4, 2003 (Council Meeting 8- 20 -03) Cost Reduction Alternatives for the Corporation Yard Project A. Backaround In June of this year the City Council approved the preliminary layout for the new Corporation Yard [Exhibits 1 & 2], but directed staff to confer with the project architect to identify possible cost reduction measures prior to proceeding with the final conceptual design. The cost of the four options initially suggested by the architect, are summarized as follows: With Covered Without Covered Building Type Parking ($) Parking ($) Concrete Masonry 3,836,420 3,406,663 Pre -Fab Steel Building 3,563,178 3,133,421 B. Maior Cost Reduction Measures The architect has identified a number of design changes which would generate significant cost savings. These changes are listed in prior order (as viewed by staff) as follows: Item Delete Reduced Cost Savings ($) A. Cover for Outside Storage B. Wrought Iron changed to chain link C. Electrical Charging Station D. LNG Fueling Station E. Skylights F. Reduce Paved Area G. Covered Parking Area at Building H. Reduce Building Footprint I. Refuse Handling Facility Total CorpYard costs 0208 X 258,000 X 74,000 X 35,000 X 27,000 X 20,000 X 109,000 X 183,000 X 80,000 X 120,000 ✓ �./ v Y � � -r V Corporation Yard Costs August 4, 2003 Page 2 The location of the above listed facilities is shown on the diagram attached as Exhibit 3. The major cost cutting options listed above are described in more detail below, along with comments and recommendations. A. Delete Cover for Outside Storage [$258,000]: 1. Action: Delete the proposed covers for the outside storage and parking areas along the north and the west fence lines. 2. Effect: This change would delete protective improvements designed to increase the useable life of equipment and materials. 3. Recommendation: Delete from the project scope (or possibly show as an Add Alternate). B. Fencing [$74,000]: 1. Action: Replace wrought iron fencing with chain link along the perimeter of the facility, except the westerly entry area where wrought iron would remain. 2. Effect: This change would only slightly diminish the aesthetic presentation of the facility, as seen from adjacent properties. The adjacent Caltrans facility uses chain link fencing. 3. Recommendation: Delete from the project scope. C. Delete Electrical Charging Station [$35,000]: 1. Action: Delete this facility from the plan. 2. Effect: This action would impede the City's ability to utilize low- emission, fuel- efficient vehicles in the future. 3. Recommendation: This feature can be funded from Traffic System Management (TSM) Funds. Do not delete this facility. D. Delete LNG Fueling Station [$27,000]: 1. Action: Delete this facility from the plan. 2. Effect: This action would impede the City's ability to utilize low - emission, fuel - efficient vehicles in the future. 3. Recommendation: This feature can be funded from Traffic System Management (TSM) Funds. Do not delete this facility. E. Delete Skylights [$20,000]: 1. Action: Delete this component of the building design from the plans. 2. Effect: Such an action would eliminate possible electrical energy cost savings which could be derived from the use of skylights. 3. Recommendation: Do not delete skylights. CorpYard costs 0208 .. v >v........ Corporation Yard Costs August 4, 2003 Page 3 F. Reduce Paved Area [$154,000]: 1. Action: The draft concept plan called for paving the entire site except for the expansion area at the east end of the property. The action would be to limit the pavement to only the shaded area shown on Exhibit 4. If this change were to be implemented, the surface for the area north of the "shaded" area [approximately 32,000 sq. ft.] would be left in a gravel or base material. 2. Effect: Such an action would diminish the usability of the facility, while increasing the long -term maintenance costs. An unpaved surface is less "user- friendly" and durable than an asphalt surface. 3. Recommendation: Do not delete implement this change. G. Delete Covered Parking Area [$200,000]: 1. Action: Revise the building roof structure to delete the roof for covered parking along the north side of the building. 2. Effect: Such an action would not only delete the shelter for vehicles and storage in this area (increasing wear and tear), but also eliminate the sheltered work area for re- stocking trucks and related activities. Such a change would also encourage the continued use of storage bins for primary work activities and for the storage of supply and materials. 3. Recommendation: Do not delete implement this change. H. Reduce Building Footprint [$80,000]: 1. Action: Reduce the building foot print 800 sf, generally as follows: > Conference Room: reduced 200 sf > Quad Office: reduced 200 sf > Quad Office: reduced 400 sf 800 sf 2. Effect: Such an action would reduce the useable building area. 3. Recommendation: Do not delete implement this change. I. Delete Refuse Handling Facility [$120,000]: 1. Action: Delete this facility. 2. Effect: By lowering the bins and raising th 3. areas, the planned design will enable City contractors to easily and efficiently dump refuse into forty (40) cubic yard bins for recycled materials, without the need for doub l or the use of heavy equipment. An action to facility would require the continuation of t practice of "double" handling, requiring the manpower and equipment costs related thereto. e "dumping" crews and debris and refuse and e handling delete this he current additional Recommendation: Do not delete implement this change. r CorpYard costs 0208 r' Fir 'w Corporation Yard Costs August 4, 2003 Page 4 C. Other Minor Chancres Certain other design changes were identified by the architect, which have a lesser cost savings significance. Those possible design changes are listed as follows: Item Delete Reduced Cost Savings ($) 1. Chain link instead of roll -up doors x 10,400 2. Landscape / Hardscape x 540 3. Monument Sign x 4,000 4. Shower x 3,500 5. Change north wall to chain link x 21,000 Total 39,440 It is not recommended that any of these changes be implemented. D. Fiscal Impact 1. Total Project Cost Estimate: The estimated cost range for the project previously presented to the City Council is summarized as follows: Note: This amount does not include any revenues which might be derived from the sale of Parcel "C ", the approximately one -half (',�) acre lot at the west end of the site. 2. FY 2003104 Budget: The current FY 03/04 Budget for the project is as follows: High End Low End Description Amount ($) Amount ($) Design 210,000 210,000 Environmental Document 25,000 25,000 Land Acquisition 920,792 920,792 Construction 3,840,000 2,518,421 Inspection 250,000 200,000 Total 5,245,792 3,874,213 Note: This amount does not include any revenues which might be derived from the sale of Parcel "C ", the approximately one -half (',�) acre lot at the west end of the site. 2.

Budget Amendment: If necessary, a budget amendment will be prepared to fully fund the estimated cost of the scope of the project approved by the City Council. E. Photovoltaics In response to interest expressed by the City regarding this matter, the architect is investigating the cost /benefit of providing for the installation of photovoltaic systems at this facility. A report on this option will be provided to the City Council at a later date. F. Summary / Conclusions It is the view of staff that the original recommended design, calling for the construction of a masonry building, be approved with the deletion of Items A (perimeter cover) and B (wrought iron fencing east of the entry) above. The revised construction cost with these changes is noted as follows: Description Amount ($) Original Construction Cost Estimate 3,836,420 Less: A. Perimeter Cover [ *Add Alternate] (258,000) Less: B. Wrought Iron Fencing East of Entry Area (74,000) 3,504,420 As noted above, it is recommended that this be included in the project design and the bid documents as an `'ADD ALTERNATE ". If it is at the time of award of contract, that the Perimeter Cover can be constructed, the ADD ALTERNATE can be added to the scope and cost of the construction project. With regard to the other items listed in Section B of this report [Items C thru I] , it is the view of staff that the long -term costs, in terms of efficiency, equipment life - cycle, usability and capability, exceed the cost - savings which would be generated in the short -term.

Schedule It is anticipated that the Conceptual Design (Phase 2) and the Final Design (Phase 3) will be completed in approximately eight (8) months. During that period, staff will have an environmental document prepared, select a Construction Management firm and complete the required Bidder Pre - Qualification process. Construction is planned to commence in July 2004. STAFF RECObMNDATIONS Approve the preliminary design for Construction Option `A' (masonry construction with covered parking), with the deletion of Change Item B [portion of wrought iron fencing] and the inclusion of Change Item A [cover for perimeter parking / storage areas] as a Bid Add Alternate.
