DISPATCH CENTER REMODELING, 40 GLACIER.DRIVE, MARTINEZ, 250-9702/13.4.1
FOR SHERIFF-CORONER(WH354C,D) September 15, 1998
C. In December, the Sheriff determined that the temporary Dispatch Center',did not have enough work
stations to properly handle a countywide emergency. Consequently, on January 27, 1998 (Agenda
Item C-57), the board 1) found that an emergency exists, 2)delegated authority to the General Services
Director to proceed in the most expeditious manner to remodel the 40 Glacier Drive Dispatch Center,
3) directed the General Services Director to make reports to enable the Board to review the emergency
actions and to determine that there is a need to continue the action, and 4) declared that the project, as
an emergency, is except from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.
D. Lease Management Division negotiated a lease for temporary space at 827 Arnold Drive, Suites 80
and 230, in Martinez, to house the administrative personnel displaced by the remodeling of 40 Glacier
Drive. The administrative personnel vacated 40 Glacier Drive and occupied the Arnold Drive Suites
on March 18, 1998.
E. On February 18, the proposed contractor submitted a proposal, work plan and schedule for
construction, based on progress prints of the construction documents. A contract was issued to the
Contractor, RGM and Associates, Inc. on March 5, 1998, with an effective date of February 4, 1998
and a payment limit of$658,796.00. On March 6, 1998, the completed construction drawings were
issued to the contractor with a request for confirmation of the payment limit. On March 17, a formal
notice to proceed was issued to confirm the contract starting date of February 4, 1998. The contractor
started demolition work on March 23, 1998.
F. A consulting services agreement with Harding Lawson Associates was issued with an effective date of
March 10, 1998 and a payment limit of$5,800.00. The agreement covers geotechnical engineering
services, including recommendations for foundation design and construction, and on-site testing of
existing and imported soils.
G. A consulting services agreement with Signet Testing Labs was issued with an effective date of March
10, 1998 and a payment limit of$72,726.00. The agreement covers construction materials testing and
special inspections in accordance with the requirements for essential services buildings in Title 24 of
the California Code of Regulations.
H. Change Carder No. 1 for$97,393.00 was issued April 30, 1998 to incorporate the scope of work shown
on the completed construction drawings into the contract. The revised contract payment limit is
$756,189.00. There is no increase in the Contract time for completion.
I. On August 31, 1998 the Sheriff Dispatch operation moved from the temporary Dispatch Center at
1960 Muir Road to the remodeled Dispatch Center at 40 Glacier Drive.
J. Change Order No. 2 for $71,492.00 was issued September 29, 1998. The revised contract payment
limit is $827,681.00. The Contract Completion Date is October 29, 1998.
K. On October 20, 1998, the Board accepted the work as complete, except for certain minor punch list
work.
L. The condition that the Board found to be an emergency on January 27 no longer exists. That is, the
temporary facility at 1960 Muir Road no longer serves as the Dispatch Center because the permanent
facility at 40 Glacier Drive is now occupied. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to continue the
emergency action previously taken by the Board.
