Subject: Approval of Plans and Specifications and Authorization to Advertise for
Bids for the Leo Carrillo Ranch Roof Repair Project
District: 2
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution approving the plans, specifications and contract documents, and authorizing
the City Clerk to advertise for bids for the Leo Carrillo Ranch Roof Repair Project, Capital
Improvement Program Project No. 4748.
Executive Summary
Staff request the City Council's approval of the completed plans, specifications and contract
documents for the Leo Carrillo Ranch Roof Repair Project to be used to solicit construction bids
to complete this work. The scope of work for the project includes structural reinforcements in
each of eight historical buildings as well as removal and replacement of roofing materials.
City Council approval of these plans and specifications is required under Carlsbad Municipal
Code section 3.28.080(E) because the expected value for this work is greater than $200,000.
Discussion
The Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park, at 6200 Flying Leo Carrillo Lane (Exhibit 2), is listed in the
National Register of Historic Places and is a California Historical Landmark. A major restoration
project was undertaken in 2019 to repair a large stable, add restrooms and make selective
repairs to some of the buildings. During the repair work, staff noted that some of the roofs
needed a more thorough assessment of their condition.
In 2020, an inspection and repair cost evaluation were conducted for eight buildings located in
the park. The buildings are identified as the Hacienda, Wash House, Cabana, Cantina, Carriage
House, Deedie's House, the historic Caretaker Residence which has staff offices, and the
restroom building adjacent to it.
In November 2020, staff issued a request for proposals for preparation of construction
drawings and specifications to make repairs recommended in the condition assessment report.
Five proposals were received and evaluated, and on April 6, 2021, the City Council authorized
March 15, 2022 Item #2 Page 1 of 7
execution of an agreement with Heritage Architecture & Planning for design services by
approving Resolution No. 2021-071.
The plans, specifications and contract documents (Exhibit 2) have been completed, reviewed by
staff and submitted for the required building permits. A building permit has been issued and is
on file with the Building Division of the Community Development Department, ready to be used
by the successful bidder.
Options
Staff provide the following options for the City Council's consideration:
1. Adopt a resolution approving the plans, specifications and contract documents for the
Leo Carrillo Ranch Roof Repair Project and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise for bids
Pros
•The plans and specifications for the project have been developed in coordination
with staff, reviewed by the city's plan review consultant and a building permit
has been issued
•Staff have prepared a request for bids in coordination with the design team and
have made this document available for public review
•Staff have obtained an updated cost estimate for the work and anticipate a bid
response in line with this estimate
•Proceeding with work as soon as possible will minimize the risk of further
deterioration and increased costs due to inflation
Cons
•None identified
2. Do not adopt a resolution approving the plans, specifications and contract documents
for the Leo Carrillo Ranch Roof Repair Project and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise
for bids, and request staff to reduce the scope of repair work
Pros
•None identified
Cons
•The building deficiencies identified in the scope of work will continue to
deteriorate, ultimately resulting in an irreplaceable loss of the buildings' historic.
fabric
•A scope of work that is less than what is identified in the plans, specifications
and contract documents could potentially increase the risk for structural failure
in those historic structures
•Work deferred to a future date could result in an overall project cost increase
due to document rework and future construction cost increases due to inflation
Staff recommend Option 1 for the City Council's approval.
Fiscal Analysis
No additional funding is requested at this time. However, additional funding may be necessary
at the time of contract award when staff return to the City Council to share bid results and
request a contract award to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.
