BACKGROUND: The Parking Garage 9 - 2017 Repair Project arises from a recommendation received by the City in a condition appraisal report prepared by Walker Restoration Consultants, dated March 2007. The most significant deficiency to be addressed by the proposed project involves replacement of the top layer of concrete (the “wear slab”) on the top level of Garage 9. Other work includes selective concrete repair, crack sealing and waterproofing. The repairs will protect structural components and extend the service life of the parking garage.
On September 4, 2018, an award of Contract No. C01823 to Ashron Construction and Restoration, Inc., of Santa Clara, California was presented to the City Council for consideration. The motion to award the contract resulted in a tie vote (3 ayes, 3 noes).

BACKGROUND: In September 2015, the City contracted with Koff & Associates (K&A) to conduct a classification and compensation study for select classifications in the Water Department. Those findings were delivered in draft form in March 2017 but were not acted on due to the use of nonstandard comparables in the market survey and a change in Water Department objectives. In January 2018, the City contracted with K&A to update the study using standard comparables and those findings were delivered in April 2018. K&A found the Utilities System Operator II classification to be approximately 5% below market, the Laboratory Supervisor to be approximately 10% below market, and recommended changes to classifications in the Mechanical Services Section.
