("Contractor") in the amount of$1,393,039 for the interior and exterior renovation to the second floor of the California Theatre located at 562 West 4th Street, San Bernardino ("Theatre"). In addition, the Commission approved a 15% contingency amount of $208,956 to cover unforeseen items (total budget $1,601,955). The renovation included, but not limited to the following: the restoration of a currently unused second floor room and conversion of that second floor room into a banquet/dining/lecture room, with a food service room (serve-only), employee dressing room, storage areas, a waitress area, the 2nd floor men's and women's restrooms, and the installation of a new turnkey elevator. The renovation project, as of November 1, 2005, is 75% completed. CURRENT ISSUE: Situations that required Staff to authorize the Contractor to perform additional work in order to proceed and complete the original work described above. The items ranged from health and safety, to environmental and from structural encounters to reevaluating architectural details to ensure the appropriate design concept. Specifically, items included the relocation of several structural and partition walls, relocation of the new HVAC equipment, ceiling insulation, 3 hour fire-rated doors, rather than 1 hour doors, fire-rated ceiling tiles, replacement of deteriorated plumbing lines, changes to the flooring specifications, additional lead-based paint abatement, replacement of non—compliant handrails, and an array of interior design changes. These unforeseen construction items have depleted the 15% contingency funds noted above. The new banquet room restoration has prompted the need to evaluate the condition of other adjoining rooms that had not been anticipated by Staff, Architect and Interior Designer nor included in the budget. These conditions include items such as the deteriorated carpet in the 1St and 2nd floor lobby, stairwell, and in the Will Rogers Lounge and the replacement of said carpet to be complimentary to the new carpet in the newly renovated room, painting in the ticket office and Will Rogers Lounge, interior signage and electrical for the exterior display cases. Consequently, it is requested that an additional $75,000 be allocated for these improvements. It should be further noted that the final completion date for the renovation and these other improvements will occur around January 31, 2006. This new completion date, however, will not impact the on-going performances nor the day-to-day operations at the Theatre. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P:\Agendas\Cornrn Dev Commission\CDC 2005\05-12-05 California Theatre Additional Funds SR.doc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA Meeting Date: 12/05/2005 CC Agenda Item Number: /�� j c Economic Development Agency Staff Report California Theatre—Additional Renovation Funds Page 2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: None.
