Strateqic Plan Obiective The proposed action will further the goals of the strategic plan by providing a safe area for residents in the event of power loss during an emergency. This is a key component of the Public Safety and Emergency Services area of the Strategic Plan. Background: On June 30, 2016, Council authorized staff to advertise for bids for the refurbishment and relocation of an emergency generator from the Sheriff Substation to the Joslyn Center. The plans for the relocation have been completed and reviewed by SCE. In order to bring the system up to current SCE standards, a transformer must be relocated and an easement must be granted to SCE to accommodate their infrastructure. Staff Report Grant an Easement to SCE for the Generator Relocation Project Page 2of2 July 28, 2016 The electrical engineer that designed the generator relocation has provided a cost estimate for a contractor to remove the generator from the Sheriff Substation facility, upgrade the generator system to comply with air quality regulations, and install the generator at the Joslyn Center. The cost for the work is estimated at $164,000, and SCE fees would increase the project cost by approximately $10,000. The fees charged by SCE are for the upgrades to their electrical system, to be performed by SCE contractors, and it is not work that the City can bid out. In addition, staff is requesting that an additional $6,000 be allocated to cover any unforeseen conditions. Fiscal Analvsis: In addition to the estimated $180,000 cost of the project, the generator will require periodic maintenance, and annual fees must be paid to the Air Quality Management District. The cost for annual maintenance and fees for the generator is estimated to be less than $1,000 per year. Prepared By: i Rya Gayler, Project Administrator Ja4a".
