CHURCH FOR AN EASEMENT AT 3073 VESSING ROAD, PLEASANT HILL, JOB 3977 AND EXECUTION OF A QUITCLAIM DEED FOR AN EXISTING EASEMENT ON THE SAME PROPERTY JOB 3977 AND AUTHORIZE RECORDING OF BOTH DOCUMENTS. submitted By: Ricardo Hernandez initiating Dept. /Div.: Engineering Assistant III Engineering / Environmental Services REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDER BOARD ACT /O R. Hernandez J. 'yamoto -Mills C. Swanson A. Farrell General M ISSUE: Easements must be accepted or quitclaimed by the Board of Directors by resolution. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolutions accepting the Grant of Easement and approving the quitclaiming of the existing easement, and authorizing recording with the Contra Costa County Recorder. FINANCIAL IMPACTS. Payment of $3,000 has been made to the property owners. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: None. BACKGROUND: In 1985, the District repaired a sewer on the subject property. As part of the repair work, the sewer was moved further into the property and closer to the house. Property rights over the relocated sewer were never obtained due to divorce proceedings affecting title to the property. The property was subsequently sold to Michael and Tamara Church, the current owners. Last year, Mr. and Mrs. Church initiated a remodeling project and the missing easement came to the attention of staff. Negotiations were then initiated to acquire the needed property rights. The old easement is being quitclaimed as part of this transaction. A map showing the replacement easement and the easement to be quitclaimed is attached. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Adopt resolutions accepting the Grant of Easement from Michael A. Church and Tamara P. Church and authorizing the Quitclaim Deed (for the old easement) to the same, and authorizing staff to record the Grant of Easement and the Quitclaim Deed with the Contra Costa County Recorder. 10/31/02 U: \Position Papers \Hernandez R \ACCEPT -1.WPD Page 1 Of 2 HILL SITE GEARY RD LOCATION MAP CHURCH NEW EASEMENT EASEMENT TO BE QUITCLAIME FEET Central Contra Costa Attachment Sanitary District 3073 VESSING RD, PLEASANT HILL EASEMENT ACOUISITION MAP Page 2 of 2 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District ' BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 7, 2002 No.: 4.b.

T. Godsey . Pi ki W. Brennan A. Farrel Charles . Bi General Mani ISSUE: Construction has been completed on the Manzanita Creek Crossing Repair Project, (DP 5434) in Orinda, and the work is now ready for acceptance. RECOMMENDATION: Accept the contract work for the Manzanita Creek Crossing Repair Project, and authorize the filing of the Notice of Completion. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None related to this action. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Not applicable. Filing the Notice of Completion is advisable under the California Civil Code Section 3093. BACKGROUND: The Manzanita Creek Crossing is a sewer creek crossing carrying the sewer flow for 60 homes in the Manzanita and Kittiwake Drive area of Orinda. Inspection revealed that the pipe crossing had developed a sag due to bridge supports that had shifted and settled. This creek crossing is one of the largest in the District in terms of length (200 feet) and height (30 feet). The contractor underpinned the trestle bents, re- plumbed the trestle bents vertically and horizontally, adjusted the sewer pipe's grade, and repainted the trestle bents. On August 15, 2002, the Board of Directors (Board) authorized the award of a contract for the construction of the project to Taber Construction Company. The Notice to Proceed was issued on September 3, 2002. The work was completed on October 3, 2002. The remaining items of work consist of minor punchlist items, which do not affect the project acceptance. The total authorized budget for the project is $172,000. The budget includes the cost of engineering design, alternative routing analysis, District forces, testing services, geotechnical services, contractor services, etc. An accounting of the project costs will 10/30/02 CPD -GL -I: \Design \Position Papers \2002 \DP5434AcceptanceBTG.wpd Page 1 of 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 7, 2002 Subject: ACCEPT THE CONTRACT WORK FOR THE MANZANITA CREEK CROSSING REPAIR PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5434, IN ORINDA, AND AUTHORIZE THE FILING OF THE NOTICE OF COMPLETION be provided to the Board at the time of project closeout.

BIDS AND AWARDS Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AWARD Subject: AUTHORIZE AWARD OF A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO SILVERADO CONTRACTORS, INC., FOR THE INFLUENT DIVERSION SUPERSTRUCTURE DEMOLITION PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 6167 Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Ba T. Than, Senior Engineer Operations / Plant Operations REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION., 1 B. Than j J. General ISSUE: On October 11, 2002, sealed bids were received and opened for the Influent Diversion Superstructure Demolition Project, District Project No. 6167. The Board of Directors must authorize award of the contract or reject bids within 50 days of the bid opening. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize award of a construction contract to Silverado Contractors, Inc. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Approximately $220,000 including bid price, contingency, and construction management. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Reject all bids. BACKGROUND: The Influent Diversion Structure was built as part of the original headworks facility in the 1950's. Since the original construction, additional gravity pipes and a superstructure had been added and several bypass pipes have been removed (part of the Headworks Facilities Improvement Project). The superstructure (constructed in the early 1970's) has corroded to the point where the inside of the building has been damaged. It has been determined that this building should be demolished to avoid a safety issue. This project will remove the existing roof and concrete walls, install lighting and handrails, and permanently support remaining equipment. Refer to Attachment 1 for project location. Plans and specifications for this project were prepared by District staff with the assistance of WRMS Engineering. The engineering estimate for construction cost is $160,000.

Three (3) bids, ranging from $145,700 to $174,423, were received and publicly opened on October 11, 2002. A summary of these bids is shown in Attachment 2. Staff conducted a commercial and technical evaluation of these bids and has determined that Silverado Contractors, Inc., is the lowest responsible bidder with a bid amount of $145,700. Construction management, construction contract administration, and construction inspection will be performed by District staff. Construction support services, which include reviewing shop drawings and submittals, responding to design questions, evaluating change order requests, and performing site visits to verify compliance with the design intent, will be performed by WRMS. The allocation of funds required to complete this project, as shown in Attachment 3, is $220,000. The Influent Diversion Superstructure Demolition is part of the Treatment Plant Safety Improvements Project, which is included in the Fiscal Year 2002 -03 Capital Improvement Budget on pages TP -50 through TP -51. Staff has determined that there are adequate funds in the Capital Improvement Budget and Plan for this project. The Project Manager has reviewed the expenditure requirements for this allocation and has determined that they are consistent with the Capital Improvement Budget and Plan. Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301, since it involves minor alterations to an existing sewage facility with no increase in capacity. Approval of this project will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize award of a construction contract in the amount of $145,700 for the Influent Diversion Superstructure Demolition Project, District Project No. 6167, to Silverado Contractors, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder. 10/30/02 S:\ Correspondence \POSPAPR \2002 \IDS Demolition.wpd Page 2 of 5 r u N Q o 00 0 150 300 FEET 001 �-- rD elk a`e�g 1 / O �1 Warehouse ■ �m �J Poo Nog sdt. 0� Q ,j � Proms shoo ° s6a��a Kg ,� as Soli anio9 / C0 oaJ�a�o9 4 ii /i PROJECT SITE Central Contra Costa INFLUENT DIVERSION SUPERSTRUCTURE Attachment Sanitary District DEMOLITION PROJECT N 1 District Project 6167 Project Location a Page 3 of 5 ATTACHMENT 2 SUMMARY OF BIDS PROJECT NO.: 6167 DATE: OCTOBER 11, 2002 PROJECTS NAME: INFLUENT DIVERSION SUPERSTRUCTURE DEMOLITION LOCATION: MARTINEZ, CALIFORNIA ENGINEER EST.: $160,000 No. BIDDER BID PRICE (Name & address) 1 Silverado Contractors, Inc. $ 145,700 3233 Peralta Street Oakland, California 94608 2 ICONCO $ 159,000 303 Derby Avenue Oakland, California 94601 3 Soil Enterprises, Inc. $ 174,423 P.O.

ADMINISTRATIVE Type of action: Authorize Funds subject: AUTHORIZE GENERAL MANAGER TO AMEND THE $25,000 CONSULTING AGREEMENT WITH MGH CONSULTING FOR UP TO $15,000 FOR COMPLETION OF THE TEAM TRAINING PROGRAM THROUGH MARCH, 2003 Submitted By Initiating Dept /Div.: Harriette Heibel, Community Affairs Mgr. Administration REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: 4R— 'e-M — W H. Heibel R. Musgraves A. Farrell General e ISSUE: Board of Directors approval is required for professional consultant agreement over $25,000 that are funded from the Operations and Maintenance Budget. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize General Manager to amend the $25,000 Consulting Agreement with MGH Consulting for up to $15,000 for completion of District Team Training Program through March, 2003 FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Funds have been budgeted in the O &M budget to cover the costs associated with this training program. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: End training at the current level. BACKGROUND: One of the items from the District's 1998 Strategic Planning Sessions with the Board of Directors was the recognition of the need for some level of District -wide training to prepare for the transition taking place due to significant retirements, a younger workforce and other organizational changes. In 1999, the District conducted a needs assessment to determine what type of training would be most beneficial to managers, supervisors, and employees during this transition. As a result, a three year program was developed with training for all employees in the areas of communications and team building. There was additional training identified for supervisors and managers that dealt with performance appraisals and improved outcomes. Each of the identified training components has been customized to address the District's needs, and each training element has built upon the preciously provided training. All District employees, including managers and supervisors, attended sessions on listening skills in 2000, and constructive conflict resolution in 2001. Supervisors and managers attended sessions on how to improve work performance and performance appraisals in 2000. The 10/31/02 H:WdminStuff\PosPapMGH2.wpd Page 1 of 2 POS /T /ON PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 7, 2002 subject. AUTHORIZE GENERAL MANAGER TO AMEND THE $25, 000 CONSULTING AGREEMENT WITH MGH CONSULTING FOR UP TO $15,000 FOR COMPLETION OF THE TEAM TRAINING PROGRAM THROUGH MARCH, 2003 District has also provided training on specific work related topics to supervisors to address both required skills and work unit team building. Because of District staff's aid in developing the various program components, and because the training is being held onsite, the actual cost of the training remains approximately $100 per employee. This amount is consistent with past training budgets for professional development. Equivalent training on the outside would cost considerably more. As part of the effort, District work groups are currently in the process of attending a four -hour team building training session. In preparing the original scope of work for the team building training, it was envisioned that the training would be conducted department by department using the same basic approach. Based on that assumption and general guidelines on the type of training required, the Management Training Committee interviewed potential trainers, and selected MGH Consulting whose principal is Maria Hernandez, Ph. D. A $25,000 contract was signed with her firm based on a common approach for each training session. As the team training unfolded, and as managers and supervisors requested the consultant develop customized training elements for various work groups, it became apparent that more training sessions would be required focusing on individual work units. The resulting work unit training sessions had less people in each session to maximize the value of team training for both the supervisors and their employees. This program has been very well received by the work groups who have already participated in the team training. However, the reformatting of the team training with additional sessions and the need for follow -up training with some of the individual work groups, requires additional funds. The cost of the additional work is estimated to be less than $15,000. The work group training sessions will be completed by January, 2003, and the follow -up work will be completed by March, 2003. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize General Manager to Amend the $25,000 Consulting Agreement with MGH Consulting for up to $15,000 for Completion of the Team Training Program through March, 2003, bringing the total contract amount to $40,000. 10/31/02 H:WdminStuiflPosPapMGH2.wpd Page 2 of 2 om II ! i 1i T 1 t� T 1 ` y 4 .
