After reviewing all submissions, staff recommends that the City Council award the construction contract to GA Technical Services, Inc., the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Financial Impact: The total project cost for the Central Library Switchgear project, including 20% contingency, and supplemental expenses is $818,720.60. Below is the project cost breakdown: Item Amount Bid submitted by GA Technical Services, Inc. $606,459.70 20% Contingency $121,291.94 Supplemental $90,968.96 Total Construction Cost: $818,720.60 Full funding for this project has been allocated in the FY 2026/27 Proposed Budget. To initiate the project immediately, the department will temporarily utilize funds from delayed projects, which will be replenished on July 1, 2026. Recommended Action: A) Accept the lowest responsive and responsible bid submitted by GA Technical Services, Inc. in the amount of$606,459.70; and, City of Huntington Beach Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/10/2026 power68O LegistarT" File #: 26-498 MEETING DATE: 6/16/2026 B) Authorize the Director of Public Works to approve construction change orders within the approved contingency amount of twenty percent (20%) of the contract amount; and, C) Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a construction contract in a form approved by the City Attorney. Alternative Action(s): Reject all bids or provide staff with alternative action. Analysis: The electrical equipment that provides power to the Central Library failed on April 14, 2023, resulting in the temporary closure of the facility to staff and patrons. Since the failure, the City has relied on temporary generators and associated electrical equipment to maintain library operations. This project includes replacement of the existing electrical switchgear and transformers, installation of new duct banks, electrical vaults, Southern California Edison equipment pads, and demolition and removal of the existing damaged electrical infrastructure. Temporary transformers and switchgear currently provide power to the facility cost about $22,000 per month. These costs will continue until permanent electrical service is restored through completion of the project. Bidder's Name Bid Amount KOBA Construction $565,000.00 GA Technical Services, Inc. $606,459.70 Mel Smith Electric, Inc. $824,300.00 AVA Builders $857,000.00 Outsource Utility Contractor LLC $879,481.63 MINAKO AMERICA CORPORATION $1,377,000.00 Pacific Industrial Electric $1,382,839.00 DAVIS MORENO CONSTRUCTION INC $1,578,787.00 Eco Energy Solutions, Inc $1,581,597.00 SNOWDEN ELECTRIC COMPANY, INC $1,596,500.00 Staff determined that Koba Construction was non-responsive to the requirements of the bid documents. Therefore, GA Technical Services, Inc., is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Staff received ten bids ranging from $565,000 to $1,596,500. The engineer's estimate for the project was $1,000,000. Given the age of the existing electrical infrastructure, the need to demolish and replace failed equipment, the presence of existing underground electrical facilities, utility coordination requirements, and the need to maintain uninterrupted library operations during construction, staff recommends a construction contingency of twenty percent (20%). The contingency is intended to address unforeseen field conditions and necessary modifications that may be identified during construction. GA Technical Services, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid in the amount of City of Huntington Beach Page 2 of 3 Printed on 6/10/2026 poweratti Leg'star T' File #: 26-498 MEETING DATE: 6/16/2026 $606,459.70. Therefore, staff recommends awarding a construction contract to GA Technical Services, Inc. for the project. The total project cost is $818,720.60, which includes the construction contract amount of $606,459.70, a twenty percent (20%) construction contingency of$121,291.94, and $90,968.96 for construction management, inspection, and project support services.

In case of a discrepancy between any Plans, Specifications, Special provisions, or Addenda, the matter shall be immediately submitted by CONTRACTOR to the Director of Public Works of CITY or his or her written designee (hereinafter referred to as "DPW"), and CONTRACTOR shall not attempt to resolve or adjust the discrepancy without the decision of DPW, save only at its own risk and expense. Should there be any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the bid or proposal of CONTRACTOR, then this Agreement shall control and nothing herein shall be considered as an acceptance of the terms of the bid or proposal which is in conflict herewith. 3 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 3. COMPENSATION CITY agrees to pay and CONTRACTOR agrees to accept as full compensation for the faithful performance of this Agreement, subject to any additions or deductions made under the provisions of this Agreement or the Contract Documents, a sum not to exceed Six Hundred Six Thousand Four Hundred Fifty-Nine and Seventy Cents ($ 606,459.70 ), as set forth in the Contract Documents, to be paid as provided in this Agreement. 4.

TIME OF THE ESSENCE The parties hereto recognize and agree that time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement and each and every provision of the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall prepare and obtain approval as required by the Contract Documents for all shop drawings, details and samples, and do all other things necessary and incidental to the prosecution of its work in conformance with the progress schedule set forth in the Contract Documents. CONTRACTOR shall coordinate its work with the work of all other contractors, subcontractors, and CITY forces working on the PROJECT in a manner that will facilitate the efficient completion of the PROJECT and in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. CITY shall have complete control of the premises on which the work is to be performed and shall have the right to decide the time and order in which the various portions of the work shall be performed and the priority of the work of other contractors, 4 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 subcontractors and CITY forces and, in general, all matters concerning the timely and orderly conduct of the work of CONTRACTOR on the premises. 6. CHANGES CONTRACTOR shall adhere strictly to the plans and specifications set forth in the Contract Documents unless a change therefrom is authorized in writing by DPW. CONTRACTOR agrees to make any and all changes, furnish materials and perform all work necessary within the scope of the PROJECT as DPW may require in writing. Under no condition shall CONTRACTOR make any changes without the prior written order or acceptance of DPW, and CITY shall not pay any extra charges made by CONTRACTOR that have not been agreed upon in writing by DPW. When directed to change the work, CONTRACTOR shall submit immediately to DPW a written cost proposal reflecting the effect of the change. Should DPW not agree to such cost proposal, the work shall be performed according to the changes ordered in writing by DPW and the proper cost thereof shall be negotiated by the parties upon cost and pricing data submitted by CONTRACTOR; thereupon, CITY will promptly issue an adjusted change order to CONTRACTOR and the contract price will be adjusted upward or downward accordingly. 7. NOTICE TO PROCEED No work, services, material, or equipment shall be performed or furnished under this Agreement unless and until a Notice to Proceed has been given to CONTRACTOR by CITY. CITY does not warrant that the work will be available on the date the Notice to Proceed is issued. In the event of a delay in commencement of the work due to unavailability of the job site, for any reason,relief to CONTRACTOR shall be limited to a time extension equal to the delay due to such unavailability. 5 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 8. BONDS Only bonds issued by California admitted sureties will be accepted. CONTRACTOR shall, prior to its performance of this Agreement, furnish the following two (2) bonds approved by the City Attorney: One in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the contract price to guarantee the CONTRACTOR's faithful performance of the work, and one in the amount of one hundred percent of the contract price to guarantee payment of all claims for labor and materials furnished. In addition, CONTRACTOR shall submit to CITY a bond in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the final contract price, including all change orders, to warrant such performance for a period of one (1) year after CITY's acceptance thereof within ten (10) days of filing of the Notice of Completion. 9. WARRANTIES CONTRACTOR unconditionally guarantees all work done under this Agreement including, but not limited to, any workmanship, installation, fabrication, material or structural facilities constructed. CONTRACTOR, within ten (10) days after notice by CITY of any defect in the work, shall have the option to make appropriate repairs or replace the defective item or items. Upon expiration of such ten (10) day period, CITY may then make appropriate repair or replacement at CONTRACTOR's risk and own cost and expense. 10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR It is understood and agreed that CONTRACTOR is,and shall be,acting at all times hereunder as an independent contractor and not an employee of CITY. CONTRACTOR shall secure at its own cost and expense, and be responsible for any and all payment of all taxes, social security, state disability insurance compensation, unemployment compensation and other payroll 6 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 deductions for CONTRACTOR and its officers, agents and employees and all business licenses, if any, in connection with the PROJECT and/or the services performed hereunder. 11. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES/DELAYS It is agreed by the parties hereto that in case the total work called for hereunder is not in all parts and requirements finished or completed within the number of calendar days as set forth herein, damage will be sustained by CITY; and that it is, and would be, impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the actual damage which CITY would sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay. It is, therefore, agreed that CONTRACTOR will pay to CITY, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of One Thousand ($ 1,000 ) per each calendar day's delay in completing the work in excess of the number of working/calendar days set forth herein, which represents a reasonable endeavor by the parties hereto to estimate a fair compensation for the foreseeable damages CITY would sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay; and CONTRACTOR agrees to pay these damages herein provided,and further agrees that CITY may deduct the amount thereof from any monies due or that may become due to CONTRACTOR hereunder. CONTRACTOR will be granted an extension of time and will not be assessed damages for any portion of the delay in the completion of the work due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of CONTRACTOR, including, but not limited to, acts of God or of the public enemy, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, unsuitable weather,or delays of subcontractors due to such causes. CONTRACTOR shall, within fifteen (15) days from the beginning of any such delay (unless DPW shall grant a further period of time), notify DPW in writing of the cause of the 7 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 delay and CITY shall extend the time for completing the work if, in its judgment, the findings of fact thereon justify the delay; and the decision of DPW shall be conclusive on the parties hereto. Should CONTRACTOR be delayed in the prosecution or completion of the work by the act, neglect or default of CITY, or should CONTRACTOR be delayed by waiting for materials required by this Agreement to be furnished by CITY, or by damage caused by fire or other casualty at the job site for which CONTRACTOR is not responsible, or by the combined action of the workers, in no way caused by or resulting from default or collusion on the part of CONTRACTOR, or in the event of a lockout by CITY, then the time herein fixed for the completion of the work shall be extended by the number of days CONTRACTOR has thus been delayed,but no allowance or extension shall be made unless a claim therefor is presented in writing to CITY within fifteen (15)days of the commencement of such delay. No claims for additional compensation or damages for delays, irrespective of the cause thereof, and including without limitation the furnishing of materials by CITY or delays by other contractors or subcontractors will be allowed and an extension of time for completion shall be the sole remedy of CONTRACTOR. 12. DEMANDS FOR ADDITIONAL TIME OR MONEY. A. Definitions. (1) "Change Order"means a document signed by the CONTRACTOR and CITY which authorizes an addition, deletion or revision in the work, or an adjustment in the Compensation under Section 3,or the Completion Time specified at Section 4. (2) "Demand" means a written demand for a Change Order by the CONTRACTOR for any of the following: (a) A time extension; 8 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 (b) Payment of money or damages arising from work done by,or on behalf of, the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement and payment of which is not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement; (c) Payment of an amount the CITY disputes; (d) Any disputes and other matters relating to the acceptability of the work performed or the interpretation of the Contract Documents; (e) A request for a time extension or additional payment based upon differing site conditions, such as subsurface or latent physical conditions at the job site differing materially from those indicated in this Agreement or the Contract Documents, or unknown physical conditions at the job site,of an unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent to work of the PROJECT; or (f) A request for a time extension or additional payment based upon acts of neglect by CITY or due to fires, floods, labor disputes,epidemics, abnormal weather conditions or acts of God. B. A Demand for a time extension or payment of money or damages may only be granted by a Change Order. C. No Change Order may be granted except where the Contractor has submitted a Demand to the DPW(or his or her written designee). All Demands shall be submitted promptly, but in no event later than thirty(30) days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the Demand. The Demand shall be in writing and include all documents necessary to substantiate the Demand. The DPW shall act on the Demand within fifteen (15) days after receipt, including by requesting additional information from the CONTRACTOR to determine whether to approve the Change Order the Demand seeks. The DPW shall act on the Demand within fifteen(15) days 9 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 after receipt of the additional information or within a period of time no greater than the time the CONTRACTOR took to produce the additional information requested,whichever is greater. D. Notwithstanding the thirty (30) days to submit a Demand under Subparagraph C, in the case of differing or unknown site conditions, immediately upon encountering the conditions, CONTRACTOR shall notify the DPW in writing of the conditions, so that the CITY may promptly investigate the conditions. E. If the CONTRACTOR disputes the DPW's written response on the Demand, or the CITY fails to respond within the time prescribed, the CONTRACTOR may so notify the City Engineer,in writing,either within fifteen(15)days of receipt of the City Engineer's response or within fifteen (15) days of the DPW's failure to respond within the time prescribed, respectively,and request an informal conference to meet and confer for settlement of the Demand. Upon the CON"1RACTOR's request,the DPW shall schedule a meet and confer conference within thirty(30)days to seek to resolve. F. CITY and CONTRACTOR shall execute appropriate Change Orders covering changes to the time or price by executing the Change Order by mutual agreement. If the CITY and CONTRACTOR are unable to reach a mutual agreement, then the City Engineer shall issue a written decision on the claim within a reasonable time. G. Following the meet and confer conference, if the Demand remains in dispute,the CONTRACTOR may file a claim with the City as provided in Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 900)and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 910)of Part 3 of Division 3.6 of Title 1 of the Government Code. For purposes of those provisions, the running of the period of time within which a claim must be filed shall be tolled from the time the CONTRACTOR submits his 10 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 or her Demand until the Demand is denied as a result of the meet and confer process, including any period of time utilized by the meet and confer process. 13. VARIATIONS IN ESTIMATED QUANTITIES The quantities listed in the bid schedule will not govern final payment. Payment to CONTRACTOR will be made only for the actual quantities of contract items used in construction of the PROJECT, in accordance with the plans and specifications. Upon completion of the PROJECT, if the actual quantities used are either more than or less than the quantities listed in the bid schedule, the bid price shall prevail subject to the provisions of this Section. DPW may, at its sole discretion, when warranted by the facts and circumstances, order an equitable adjustment, upwards or downwards, in payment to CONTRACTOR where the actual quantities used in construction of the PROJECT are in variation to the quantities listed in the bid schedule. No claim by CONTRACTOR for an equitable adjustment in price or time for completion shall be allowed if asserted after final payment under this Agreement. If the quantity variation is such as to cause an increase in the time necessary for completion, DPW shall ascertain the facts and circumstances and make such adjustment for extending the completion date as in its sole judgment the findings warrant. 14. PROGRESS PAYMENTS Each month DPW will make an estimate in writing of the work performed by CONTRACTOR and the value thereof. From each progress estimate, five percent (5%) will be deducted and retained by CITY and the remainder of the progress estimate, less the amount of all previous payments since commencement of the work,will be paid to CONTRACTOR. When CONTRACTOR has, in the judgment of DPW, faithfully executed fifty percent(50%) or more of the value of the work as determined from the bid schedule, and if DPW finds that satisfactory progress has been and is being made, CONTRACTOR may be paid such 11 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 sum as will bring the payments of each month up to one hundred percent (100%) of the value of the work completed since the commencement of the PROJECT,as determined in its sole discretion by DPW, less all previous payments and less all previous retained amounts. CITY's final payment to CONTRACTOR, if unencumbered,or any part thereof unencumbered,shall be made thirty-five (35) days after the acceptance of the work and the filing of a Notice of Completion by CITY. Provided, however,that in the event of a dispute between CITY and CONTRACTOR,CITY may withhold from the final payment an amount not to exceed 150 percent of the value of any disputed amount of work. Payments shall be made on demands drawn in the manner required by law, each payment to be accompanied by a certificate signed by DPW, affirming that the work for which payment is demanded has been performed in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and that the amount stated in the certificate is due under the terms of the Agreement. Partial payments on the contract price shall not be considered as an acceptance of any part of the work. 15. WITHHELD CONTRACT FUNDS, SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES At the request and at the sole cost and expense of CONTRACTOR,who shall retain beneficial ownership and receive interest, if any thereon, CITY shall permit the substitution and deposit therewith of securities equivalent to the amount of any monies withheld by CITY to ensure performance under the terms of this Agreement. 16. AFFIDAVITS OF SATISFACTION OF CLAIMS After the completion of the work contemplated by this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall file with DPW its affidavit stating that all workers and persons employed, all firms supplying materials and all subcontractors working upon the PROJECT have been paid in full and that there are no claims outstanding against the PROJECT for either labor or material, except certain items,if any,to be set forth in CONTRACTOR's affidavit covering disputed claims, 12 16-5195/City Funded Construction Contract.docx—revised 04/2016 or items in connection with Notices to Withhold, which have been filed under the provisions of the statutes of the State of California. 17. WAIVER OF CLAIMS The acceptance by CONTRACTOR of the payment of the final certificate shall constitute a waiver of all claims against CITY under or arising out of this Agreement. A. The CITY has ascertained from the Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California the general prevailing rate of per diem wages and the general prevailing rate for legal holiday and overtime work in the locality in which the work is to be performed for each craft or type of work needed to execute this Agreement,and the same has been set forth by resolution on file in the office of the City Clerk of CITY.

USING A310-2010 Modifications.Particularly with respect to professional or contractor licensing laws,building codes,taxes,monetary and interest charges,arbitration,indemnification,format and font size,AIA Contract Documents may require modification to comply with state or local laws.Users are encouraged to consult an attorney before completing or modifying a document. In a purchased paper AIA Contract Document,necessary modifications may be accomplished by writing or typing the appropriate terms in the blank spaces provided on the document,or by attaching Supplementary Conditions,special conditions or referenced amendments. Modifications directly to purchased paper AIA Contract Documents may also be achieved by striking out language. However,care must be taken in making these kinds of deletions. Under NO circumstances should standard language be struck out to render it illegible.For example,users should not apply blocking tape,correction fluid or Xs that would completely obscure text.Such practices may raise suspicion of fraudulent concealment,or suggest that the completed and signed document has been tampered with. Both parties should initial handwritten changes. Using AIA software,modifications to insert information and revise the standard MA text may be made as the software permits. By reviewing properly made modifications to a standard AIA Contract Document,parties familiar with that document can quickly understand the essence of the proposed relationship.Commercial exchanges are greatly simplified and expedited,good faith dealing is encouraged,and otherwise latent clauses are exposed for scrutiny. AIA Contract Documents may not be retyped or electronically scanned.Retyping can introduce typographic errors and cloud legal interpretation given to a standard clause.Furthermore,retyping and electronic scanning are not permitted under the user's limited license for use of the document,constitute the creation of a derivative work and violate the AIA's copyright. Identification of the Parties.The Contractor,the Surety,and the Owner should be identified using their respective full names and addresses or legal titles under which the bond is to be executed.The state in which the Surety is incorporated • also should be identified in the space provided. • Bond Amount.The dollar amount of the bond should be provided in both written and numerical form. • Project Description.The proposed project should be described in sufficient detail to identify(1)the official name or title of the facility;(2)the location of the site;(3)the proposed building type,size,scope or usage;and(4)the project a, number required by the owner,if any.A project number may be required by certain public owners to adequately identify • the project to which the bond pertains. • Execution of the Bond.The bond must be signed by both the Contractor and the Surety.The parties executing(signing) g ( .gn g) a the bond should print their title and impress their corporate seal,if any.
