Bueren, Public Works Director/Chief Engineer Date:January 6, 2015 Contra Costa County Subject:Adopt Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion for the Improvements to Tamalpais Unit, 202 Glacier Drive, Martinez (WH194B) BACKGROUND: (CONT'D) a current capacity of 30 beds and is housed on the Cypress Unit of the Juvenile Hall. The Tamalpais Unit was not upgraded at the time the new facility was constructed. By upgrading the Tamalpais Unit, the YOTP would be able to expand services offered to residents of the facility by providing vocational training in addition to regular high school classes offered by the Office of Education. The YOTP was opened on October 1, 2008 and has been at capacity with a waiting list since soon after it opened. The Cypress/YOTP Unit is currently at capacity with a waiting list of 8. This delays commitments from entering the program and thus delays their opportunity to complete the program resulting in longer, costlier stays in detention. The opportunity to offer additional vocational training will provide much needed services for residents of the program, better preparing them to return to their communities. It will also afford the Probation Department the opportunity to apply for grants related to programs that offer vocational programming such as a recent Second Chance Technology Grant. On May 13, 2014, the County entered into a construction contract with Vila Construction Co. for the subject project. The above contract has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. It is recommended that the work covered by the contract be accepted by adopting a Resolution of Acceptance and Notice of Completion (Resolution 2015/11). The project acceptance includes a withhold amount of $7,500 to ensure the completion of the project closeout items. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Accepting a contract as complete is standard procedure and allows for proper closeout of the contract. If the above contract is not accepted as complete, the period for filing stop payment notices and bond claims may be extended. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Not applicable.
