Are the the 1. 2 million will cover are weve budgeted for and expect to use and to offset the Environmental Review and weve ball parked the time delay and the Environmental Review documents itself you costs about 2 million we were not anticipating so thats where we are we recommend approval the item. Any Public Comment on that item . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Id like to make the motion to approve the allegation of the 108 million. Before i get a second commissioner low. How side this work when kimble with when. It didnt need kimble to be completed but a final lock on the price. That allows us to fund the contingency. Actually, the money is doesnt come from kimble under our bond process there was a skernl wed spend through the dollars early in the program so there was a pause that basic said theres a last 8 million you have to hold onto until the last one goes out to bid so he can deliver the promotions its there not from kim believable but the forest fund really and we couldnt access those funds until we put kimble out to bid to have the cash in hand. So kimble has the contingency. We have a motion is there a second moved and seconded. All in favor, say i. So moved and were on the geneva car bond award. Thank you, commissioners discussion and possible action to approve a design contract to complete the design document for the giving me have a its a Historic Building one of the last not one of but the last reminder of the electric railways that went throughout San Francisco the firm of a. D. Land declaring has if a donated money to help complete the Concept Design im sure youre aware of i talked about this when i came through with the bond we found about 8 hundred 0. 34 thousand dollars and supervisor avalos expressed his preference we keep those funds with that project and since that time nicole went through the Civil Service commission to use those funds for 8 land declaring to make the timelines we needed so thats what it is after following through rec and park opportunity to now award the actual contract so the process can be continued for geneva carbarn to compete for a tax credit for which they need the work to be completed and its evidence of the citys confidence for them to leverage the funds if you have any questions, ill be happy to answer them. Any Public Comment on that item . Seeing none commissioner. Let me make one observation i get excited every time i see this project this destine effort as pointed out by dawn will allow the department to qualify for some of the funding that they hope to garner in making this project work as i recall the project is a 20 million project 10 million is available but this design is necessary to go after some of that and clearly to go after private funding to match the 10 million out there with that, ill entertain a motion. Moved and seconded. All in favor, say i. So moved. Thank you were now think item 10 the termination of construction contract. And good morning, commissioners im marvin with the rec and Park Department dupont is located in the Mission District between clemente and california street. This project is the refurbishment 6 a restroom building under the 2008 parks bond the Commission Award the contract for 3 how does to replace the restroom building despite the multiple efforts during the planning phase it was appealed in 2013. The permit appeal was primarily based on the historic status of restroom building although the project rested a categorical thing they identified the restroom building as being constructed under the dpa building it required the features of the building rather than involving the Arts Commission to further delay the project the department is to renovate the building thereby keeping its original features its necessary to terminate the construction contract per section of the general conditions the rec and Park Department respectfully asked the contract with a retroactive date of 2013 in regards to the post costs prior to the the course of this trial the contract was work that was completed including the work involving mobile shin and partial construction subsequent to the project 57 thousands of work was completed of interior demolitions and hazard demolition and material purchases including the tile that will be turned over to the city therefore the cost is 95,034 the remainder of the money for construction is almost 3 hundred and 44 thoisdz if this item is approved by the commission we believe this will begin in the winter of this year. The staff recommendation to approve the termination of the contract contract for convenience and to authorize the final payment in the amount of 95 thousand dollars plus incurred on the project and item . Seen none, Public Comment is closed. Commissioner low. So what happened at the board of permanent appeals does the project need to be redesigned the department is looking at for the renovation were looking at withdrawing the permit and the item go back to the appeal board and the renovation plan will going cuckoo. And have to be rebid. Were looking at different vehicles for the construction i mean one avenue could be a form of contract and another a j oc thats think exceeded way of completing that, yes there has to be a rebid to the scope. So some of those termination costs that lowers the bids on the new scope of the work. Thats correct the interior part of the work well do on this rams thats buffoon done not an added cost to the rams. So the new scope of work we k can still stay on budget. Thats correct. Seeing no other questions is there a motion . So moved. Moved and seconded in favor so moved. Were on item 11 port smith renovation project and. It the locked in chinatown and near walter alley its a living room of chinatown residents next to some time. The restroom was built in 1990 and quickly became the most uses restroom in our public parks. In under the 2008 bond the restroom task force evaluated the restroom and recommended to increase the capacity. Through Community Meetings we went through a planning process and recommended replacement of the restrooms in order to increase the capacity. On the overhead okay. Our images of that restroom building that was designed and approved by this commission and the Arts Commission that is the modern interpretation of chinese architecture it is increasing the mens room from 4 to 6 and the womens from 2 to 6 and recreational use. The estimated cost of the project at the time of the Commission Approval of the time was 800,000 plus we put the project out to bid twice. The first time was in may of 2014 we received bids four bids the bids expedite our project and the average was 1. 47 million the high costs for the architecture metal work and the c m u this is what the building is comprised of we looked at creating all of the elements in the project identified 8 possible all of the elements and looked at it modifying the details we simply switched in aluminum to a steel material that brought down the price and did a perform specification so theres no unknowns requiring the contractor to do a mac markup of the construction. The overlay project was increased to 1. 265 million. In the 3 bids we received 5 and of those the contractor who submitted the lowest bid is changing construction in the amount of 1 million plus the r and l. B. Contractor that performed on a couple of not more City Projects including the one south van ness project in 2009 the value was 5. 7 million and they did the renovation of the clubhouse for 2. 7 million and the projects were completed to the satisfaction of the city. If approved the changing construction the total budget will be 2 million 37 plus therefore the staff recommendation to say award the contract go to the chang construction. Additional a reallocation of 1. 68 million from the 2008 from the parks Contingency Fund to the project. Any Public Comment on that item . Please come forward richard. Go ahead good morning, commissioners ive been listening tour your package this project has been detailed over different times this project should then be considered whether theres a 20th century 20, 17 or renovation of the entire park area i dont know how that 2012 fits with this project you have this project from the 28 funding enough said i have a question in my mind how that type of money it moving at t park when you look at the other issues on this park practical kind of stuff such theres a lot of pissing often the side of the building and part of my crew were saying things with the hour closes it we make the round i wonder if you, put some gravel around it the structure doesnt afford very much sanitation but he look at that particular part of the park when you have to tear the place down where are the people going to be using the restroom i recommend you put if temporary units and opening up get someone to deal with the square Recreation Center thats been closed a lot of people need those area for their daily activities thank you. Next speaker hi, im speaking that on boost of the Chinatown Development center. Chinatown as two popular public boomers at the Chinese Hospital which is increase in door and Public Square is the other one its if you ask the residents which is one thing in chinatown thats best and the square bathroom also comes up and if i ask the residents most critical things in chinatown this comes up theres no option the neighborhood has so were looking forward to this new design we have many meetings in the last few years it took more time people involved in the chinese rec center the design before you is not the first one it takes years to get where we are and the community we spend a lot of time in translation to the committee
