SUMMARY:
An ordinance authorizing a task order to a Job Order Contract with Belt Built Contracting, LLC in an amount not to exceed $188,163.43 for the Culebra Creek Park project, a 2017 Bond funded project, located in District 6.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On May 6, 2017, the City approved the 2017 Bond Program authorizing $368,000.00 for improvements to Culebra Creek Park located in Council District 6. Two separate public meetings were held on November 4, 2018, and March 4, 2019 to gather feedback for the Culebra Creek project. This project will provide for a vandal-resistant, low maintenance restroom building with two, single unisex rooms, utility connections, a walkway, grading and revegetation. The new building will include full utilities and lighting. Construction is anticipated to begin February 2020 and estimated to be completed by July 2020.
This task order utilizes the Job Order Contracting (JOC) approved through Ordinance 2019-02-21-0134 by City Council on February 21, 2019. The use of the JOC delivery method provides the City with on-call construction, renovation and maintenance services for City buildings and facilities. Assignment of JOC contractors to specific jobs is based on the contractor’s current workload, overall capacity, and familiarity with a specific facility, expertise in completing specific task and/or managing a specific trade needed to carry out the requested repair or rehabilitation. Of the ten contractors approved as part of the JOC, Belt Built Contracting, LLC was selected to submit an estimate and project schedule for this project.
This contract will be awarded in compliance with the Small Business Economic Development Advocacy (SBEDA) Program, which requires contracts be reviewed by a Goal Setting Committee to establish a requirement and/or incentive unique to the particular contract in an effort to maximize the amount of small, minority, and women-owned business participation on the contract. The Goal Setting Committee set a 24% Minority/Women Business Enterprise (M/WBE) subcontracting goal and a 4% African American Business Enterprise subcontracting goal. Belt Built Contracting, LLC has committed to a 24% M/WBE and 4% AABE subcontractor participation.
The Discretionary Contracts Disclosure Form, as required by the City’s Ethics Ordinance for all Projects where subjective criteria are used to select the contractor or consultant rather than by low bid, is attached.
