APP ' 9F CITY - CPYWIL • A, t INTRODUCED August 8, 2005 BY Michael Occhiato Councilperson CD Background Paper for Proposed RESOLUTION AGENDA ITEM #14 DATE: AUGUST 8, 2005 DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR — DANIEL E. CENTA, P.E. TITLE A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF $1,500 FROM THE 2005 CONTINGENCY ACCOUNT TO THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT BUDGET TO PAY FOR ADDITIONAL ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH ADA ISSUES RELATIVE TO THE EL CENTRO DEL QUINTO SOL COMMUNITY CENTER. ISSUE Should the City Council approve the transfer of $1,500 from the 2005 Contingency Account to the Public Works Department budget. RECOMMENDATION Approval of this Resolution. BACKGROUND The City put out a request for proposals to determine what improvements were necessary to bring the El Centro Del Quinto Sol Community Center facility into full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and to provide a cost estimate for such improvements. Architectural Innovations, LLC, is the architectural firm that was contracted to do this study. Upon initial review, it appeared that the installation of an elevator providing access to the 2 °d floor would be required. After further investigation, is seems that the Justice Department will allow comparable recreational facilities to be placed in the basement, thus eliminating the need for the elevator. The alternative would be to install an interior ramp to the basement. This would result in a significant cost savings for the required ADA renovations of this building. Architectural Innovations, LLC., has submitted a proposed cost of $1,500 in additional architectural work to prepare a concept plan which shows the configuration of this ramp alternative. Once completed, all alternatives will be presented to City Council. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funds in the amount of $1,500 will be transferred from the Contingency Fund in the Public Works Department Budget, Account No. 101 - 4010- 430.30 -01.
