priate to discuss it at this Agency meeting. He suggested that this be

MINUTES: of the regular meetings of October 27 and November 3, 1982, be approved.
Motion, as made and seconded, was unanimously carried.
CONSTRUCTION Director of Public Services Yee recalled the negotiation of the contract
MANAGEMENT FOR for the East Grand Avenue project and the Construction Management contract
E. GRAND GRADE with CH2M Hill which would allow this firm to oversee the construction
SEPARATION project. He stated that the total fee for Construction Management project
PROJECT ST-80-3 was not to exceed $650,000 on a time-and-expenses basis. He addressed
two matters before the Board:
The first was a recommendation to adopt a resolution authorizing execu-
tion of Supplement No. 2 to the agreement with CH2M Hill, not to exceed
$650,000 for work up to and including September 14, 1984. Should the
contractor complete the work before this'date, there would be no problem,
Mr. Yee commented. He stated that should it extend beyond this date,
the Agency would have to negotiate with the consultants for additional
time and cost.
The second issue concerned the manufacturing of the bridge itself in
Japan. He stated that the $650,000 does not include expenses for the
CONSTRUCTION consultant to 90 to Japan; however, under "Specifications," the contractor
IvJABAGEMENT FOR will rebate to the City the amount of $60,000 to cover this expense.
I GRAND AVE.GRADE Mr. Yee cautioned that this amount may or may not cover this additional
' 'ARATION expense but felt that Supplement No. 2 was no different from the previous
i..JJECT ST-80-3 one. He remarked that the City Attorney had reviewed the contract, and
(Continued) Mr. William O'Leary, CH2M Hill, was present to answer any questions.
The Agency Board questioned the necessity of on-site inspections and
was answered that it is the renuirement of the specifications.
Vice Chairman Addiego next inquired about Task 4.0 on page 2 of the
Supplement which noted that attendance of meetings was stipulated up to
a total of ten. Mr. Yee remarked that Staff and the consultants did
not feel there would be more than ten, and even less were anticipated.
Next discussed was the formula of fabrication of steel beyond 3,000 miles
and the charge per pound of steel to be rebated. Mr. Yee remarked about
the satisfaction of Caltrans had with the construction of the Antioch
Bridge by this Japanese firm.
In answer to Member Acosta's request for information on possible delays
in the completion of the project through "Acts of God," strikes, etc.,
Mr. William O'Leary, CH2M Hill, stated that there were provisions in the
contract which would speak to that situation; that the amount of the
contract would be no more than $650,000; and should circumstances neces-
sitate their working beyond that date, they would negotiate with Staff
for whatever reasonable costs would be involved.
City Attorney Robert Rogers explained the provision in the contract
which contains a termination clause of 15 days for any reason.
RESO. NO. 38 Member Damonte moved, seconded by Vice Chairman Addiego, that the Reso-
AUTHORIZING EXECU- lution entitled: "A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF SUPPLEMENT NO. 2
TION OF SUPPLEMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH CH2M HILL FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES RELATED TO
NO. 2 - CH2M Hill EAST GRAND AVENUE GRADE SEPARATION," be approved and adopted.
Roll call vote was as follows: Ayes, Members Ronald G. Acosta, Mark N.
Addiego, Emanuele N. Damonte, Gus Nicolopulos, and Roberta Cerri Teglia.
Noes, none. Absent, none.
DISCUSSION RE Executive Director Birkelo stated that the proposed contract for pro-
BURNS INTERNA- fessional services with Burns Consulting Services, division of Burns
TIONAL SECURITY International Security Services, Inc., required no Board action and was
SERVICES, INC. fully explained in the Staff Report from the Chief of Police in
Council's agenda. The Board was assured that this was not a reimbursable
item to Homart Development Company..
RECEIPT OF BIDS Director of Public Services Yee commented on the'seven bids received this
GATEWAY ASSESSMENT day on the Gateway Assessment District which ranged from $8.1 million to
DISTRICT $10.2 million. He stated that there was a question with one of the bids,
and he was consulting with the City Attorney to resolve the matter and
-- proceed with the award of contract.

i ~EIPT OF BIDS Executive Director Birkelo remarked that the bids were substantially
i 'EWAY ASSESSMENT below the Engineer's estimate, that there were other estimated costs that
DISTRICT are percentages of the contruction, and that the "ripple" effect would
(Continued) bring the total of the first stage bo,d ~ale considerably below the
amount previously discussed, ~probably, in the $16-17-million range.
GOOD & WELFARE: Chairman Teglia invited anyone in the audience to speak.
Mr. John Aguilar, Project Director of Homart Development Company, spoke
concerning the Grade Separation project. He stated that he felt time was
being lost from the August 1 date and hoped that the contract with Dan
Caputo, low bidder, would be accelerated. He requested to know when
the Notice of Proceed would be issued to Mr. Caputo.
Mr. Yee replied that he felt no time had been lost. He stated that the
official date would be Monday, November 22, 1982. He remarked that the
contractors desired to start after Thanksgiving, but November 22 is the
date set. He further spoke about the "behind-the-scenes" coordination
and scheduling which had been taking place.
