Discussion:
On May 26, 2006, City Council awarded Contract No. C24100 to Sukut Construction,
Inc. of Santa Ana, California in the amount of $ 6,931,432.50 for the construction of the
Fred Waring Drive Sound Wall project. The project was essentially completed in May of
2007, but unanticipated maintenance issues have delayed the process of filing a notice
of completion.

The contract included the installation of ledge stone veneers on the sound wall as an
aesthetic treatment. After the installation of the veneers some of the panels fell off the
wall. They have now been replaced and re -inspected and found to be acceptable;
however, staff recommends that the City enter into a maintenance agreement for the
ledge stone veneers and that City Council accept a $25,000 letter of credit from the
contractor against defects for a period of two years from the date that the notice of
completion is recorded. This two-year warranty is a departure from the City's standard
one-year warranty period.
Therefore, the Public Works Department, having inspected the work performed by the
contractor and found said work to be complete and in accordance with the contract
requirements, recommends that City Council authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of
Completion for the subject project, accept the letter of credit, approve the Ledge Stone
Veneer Maintenance Agreement, and authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement.
Fiscal Impact: None. There are no change orders for this project.
