STAn REPORT
CaDi tal ImDrovement Proiect for Easter Seal Society
Development Department staff has received a request from Easter Seal
Society for $4,800 in additional CDBG funds to replace the heating and
air conditioning system in its offices located at 241 E. Ninth Street.
Previously, Easter Seal Society applied for fiscal year 1991/1992 CDBG
Capital Improvements funds and the Mayor and Common Council approved
$12,000 to replace three (3) heating and air conditioning units that
will be more energy efficient and provide a healthier environment for
clients. On Thursday, January 9, 1992, Easter Seal Society opened bids
for the heating and air conditioning units. The lowest responsible bid
was $16,800. The bid is $4,800 above the allocation approved by the
Community Development Citizens Advisory Committee (CDCAC) and the Mayor
and Common Council.
Because of the shortfall and to expedite this project, the CDCAC on
January 30, 1992 reviewed Easter Seal Society's proposal and
recommended that the Mayor and Common Council approve the Society's
request for $4,800 in additional CDBG funds for replacement of the
heating and air conditioning system.
Staff has reviewed the bids as submitted, concurs with the Society's
findings and recommends approval of the request as submitted.
Staff recommends adoption of the form motion.

Dear Mr. Henderson:
On Thursday, January 9, 1992, 2P.M., at the Easter Seal Society, the bids
for the Easter Seal Heatin9/Air Conditioning project were opened. Two
bids were received. One from Davidson's Air Conditioning and the other
from Wright's Air Conditioning. A third contractor, Clement's Heating
and Air Conditioning, reviewed the documents and declined to enter a bid.
Twenty prospective heating and air conditioning contractors were sent
bid information.
The low bid was Davidson's Air Conditioning at $16,800.00. This was
$1,200 less than the bid received from Wright's.
Our Board member, Tom Brickley, was familiar with both companies and
stated that they were both reputable firms and, therefore, the recom-
mendation was made from Easter Seals that we go with the low bid, David-
son's Air Conditioning and Heating.
The requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act in regards to federal construction
projects increased the overall cost of this project over and above Our
estimates by $4,800. To assist Easter Seals with completing this project
in a timely manner, our request is hereby made for addition funding of
$4,800 to meet the requirements of the low bid.
Your earliest possible consideration of this request would be greatly
appreciated as we would like to st~rt the project as soon as possible.
The units that we now have in place are not working satisfactorily.
I will be out of town for the next two weeks. If you need any additional
information, or have come to a decision on additional funding, please
contact Bob Miller, Vice President, Program Services at the' Easter Seal's
office, 714-888-4125.
Thank you for your kind cooperation and assistance.
Sincerely,
~~
Brian Bost, CEO
