SFPUC approves consent items, a contract novation, property purchase and construction contracts
Summary
The commission approved the consent calendar, separately approved a novation/amendment to a federal-legislative representation agreement, authorized purchase of ~5 acres of Alameda Watershed land for $1.59 million, and awarded a $5 million job-order contract for upcountry construction.
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission moved and approved its consent calendar and heard several items removed from consent for separate consideration.
Item 9B: staff described a novation of agreement PRO0061 for federal legislative representation from Darryl Owens Associates, Inc. to Owens Evans Ingalls, Inc., and an amendment increasing the contract by $20,000 to cover travel reimbursements (up to $5,000 per year for the final four years), removing a 5% invoice withholding requirement and bringing the total not-to-exceed to $1,220,000. The commission approved the novation and amendment after brief discussion about standard withholding practices (SEG 783–848).
Item 10: the commission authorized the general manager to execute a purchase-and-sale agreement for approximately five acres of Alameda Watershed land from Michael Mitchell for $1,590,000 plus transaction costs not to exceed $100,000. Staff said the parcel is an inholding adjacent to existing SFPUC property near Wool Ranch and recommended acquisition under the watershed and environmental improvement program; the commission approved the purchase (SEG 857–903).
Item 11: a job-order contract (JOC74) for San Joaquin, Stanislaus and Tuolumne counties was awarded to the lowest responsive bidder, Sierra Mountain Construction, Inc., for a two-year term not to exceed $5,000,000. A SFPUC project manager presented terms and answered questions; the commission approved the award (SEG 907–927).
Item 12: the commission consented to completion and acceptance of water, stormwater and sewer infrastructure in the Mission Bay South plan area under a July letter of agreement among the Office of Community Investment and Infrastructure, FOCIL MB LLC, and the City and County of San Francisco. A public commenter then described a long-running sewer backup at his Bernal Heights residence; SFPUC staff acknowledged receipt of his letter and assigned wastewater staff to follow up (SEG 929–1014).
Votes: all items described above were approved by voice vote in the meeting record. No roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript excerpts.
