Subject: Accept Bids and Award Contract to Sylvester Roofing Company, Inc. for
the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility Roof Replacement Project
District: 3
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution accepting the bids and awarding a contract to Sylvester Roofing
Company, Inc. for the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility Roof Replacement Project in an
amount not to exceed $387,931 and appropriating $168,024 from the Recycled Water
Replacement Fund to Capital Improvement Program Project No. 4749.
Executive Summary
The Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility, at 6220 Avenida Encinas, as shown in Exhibit 2, requires a
new roof.
Plans and specifications for the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility Roof Replacement project,
Capital Improvement Program Project No. 4749, were formally bid, and staff have determined
Sylvester Roofing Company is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with a bid in an
amount of $387,931.
Staff request the Carlsbad Municipal Water District, or CMWD, Board of Directors’ acceptance
of bids and award of contract to Sylvester Roofing Company, Inc.
Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.080(C) and Section 3.28.080(I)(6), which cover purchasing
for construction contracts, require the CMWD Board’s approval for all formally bid contracts
when the value exceeds $200,000, making the project subject to this requirement.
Explanation & Analysis
On July 25, 2023, the CMWD Board adopted Resolution No. 1713, approving the plans and
specifications and authorizing advertising for construction bids. The project was then
advertised using the water district’s formal bidding procedures.
Oct. 10, 2023 Item #3 Page 1 of 6
The scope of the project includes replacing the existing low-slope roofing with a single-ply
membrane, replacing the existing standing seam metal roof with a new standing seam metal
roof and replacing rooftop electrical equipment and mechanical ductwork.
Staff received seven bids for construction of the project on Aug. 24, 2023. Staff completed
review of the bids received and determined that Sylvester Roofing Company, Inc. is the
lowest responsive and responsible bidder with a bid amount of $387,931.
Staff recommend accepting the bids and awarding the construction contract to Sylvester
Roofing Company, Inc. for the project in an amount not to exceed $387,931. Additionally,
staff recommend that the CMWD Board authorize the City Manager or designee to
appropriate an additional $168,024 from the Recycled Water Replacement Fund to cover
the remaining costs.
Fiscal Analysis
Capital Improvement Program Project No. 4749 is funded by the Recycled Water Replacement
Fund.
The total cost of project is estimated to be $456,931. An additional appropriation in the amount
of $168,024 from the Recycled Water Replacement Fund is necessary to complete the project.
Sufficient funds are available in the fund to support the requested action.
Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility Roof Replacement Project
Capital Improvement Program Project No. 4749
Total appropriation to date $381,000
Total expenditures/encumbrances to date -$92,093
Total available funding $288,907
Additional project costs
Construction contract – Sylvester Roofing Company , Inc. -$387,931
Construction contingency (estimated) -$39,000
Construction management, inspection and testing (estimated) -$30,000
Total estimated construction costs -$456,931
Additional appropriation requested $168,024
Carlsbad Municipal Code sections 3.28.040(C)(5) and 3.28.090(B) allow for the CMWD Board to
authorize the Executive Manager or designee to approve change orders in an amount equal to
the contingency set at the time of project award, which for this project is $39,000.
Next Steps
Once the CMWD Board accepts the bids and awards the construction contract to Sylvester
Roofing Company, Inc., staff will issue a purchase order, schedule a pre-construction meeting
with the company and issue a notice to proceed for construction of the project.
Oct. 10, 2023 Item #3 Page 2 of 6
The duration of the construction contract is approximately three months, not including rain
days and delays from change orders that may extend the contract duration. Once the project is
completed, which is expected to be in early 2024, a notice of completion to release bonds
issued for the project will be recorded.
Environmental Evaluation
The City Planner, through the process outlined in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 19.04.060,
has determined that the project to replace the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility roof belongs to
a class of projects that the state Secretary for Natural Resources has found do not have a
significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the
requirement for the preparation of environmental documents in accordance with Section
15301 (d) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines.
In making this determination, the City Planner has found that the exceptions listed in Section
15300.2 of the state CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. The project is consistent with
the Class 1 exemption in Section 15301 (d) because it consists of maintenance of public
facilities, such as the restoration or rehabilitation of deteriorated or damaged structures,
facilities, or mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety.
