SUBJECT:
Title
Discuss and consider approval of a contract with Key Enterprises for the replacement of the gym flooring at the Westside Community Center.
Body
BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
After a heavy rain event in 2014, leaks in the gym roof caused serious water damage and warping to a section of the gym floor. Roof repairs were completed, but the floor was still damaged and created a hazardous area in part of the gym. Staff contacted gym flooring contractors and all of them declined to bid on a repair job as the floor would lose substantial integrity. Staff was told that repairs would not hold up and would not be warrantied.
Over time, subsequent sections of the floor have begun to deteriorate. Total replacement of the gym floor, with additional water barrier underlay, is recommended at this time to keep the facility useable.
Per the previous agenda item, Community Development Block Grant funds may be available for reallocation towards the replacement of the gym flooring at the Westside Community Center. The total cost for the contract will include materials and installation for $63,159. Key Enterprises is a BuyBoard approved vendor and satisfies the procurement responsibilities. The contract will include the removal of the existing floor, new flooring prep and installation and game lines.
