RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendation
1. Approve a budget adjustment increase in the amount of $152,340 to Capital Improvement Program Project No. 26-020, increasing the total project budget from $69,510 to $221,850, for the Fleet Garage Temperature Improvement Project, to complete the mechanical and electrical engineering design services required to advance the project.
2. Authorize the Auditor-Controller/Treasurer/Tax Collector to post the necessary budget adjustments as detailed in the Financial Impact section (Four votes required).

Body
COUNTY AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER GOALS & OBJECTIVES
Improve County Government Operations.
Provide for the Safety, Health and Social Service Needs of County Residents.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will not result in the use of Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost). The recommended budget increase of $152,340 for the Fleet Garage Temperature Improvement Project (Project) (WBSE #10.10.1951), increasing the total project budget from $69,510 to $221,850, will be fully funded through Fleet Management’s (Fleet) Internal Service Fund (Fund 7910004064). The additional funding will support the completion of design development, construction documents, bidding assistance, and construction administration services necessary to implement temperature improvement upgrades at the Fleet Garage located at 210 N. Lena Road.
Upon completion of the design phase and refinement of the Project scope and cost estimate, Project and Facilities Management Department (PFMD) and Fleet will jointly return to recommend a subsequent budget adjustment to the Project for the Board of Supervisors consideration, to incorporate construction funding into the Project budget.
No additional appropriation is required within Fleet’s FY2025-26 adopted budget, as sufficient funding is available within the department’s Internal Service Fund resources.
Approval of this recommendation will allow Auditor-Controller/Treasurer/Tax Collector to post the following adjustment to the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget:

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The CIP Project No. 26-020, Fleet Garage Temperature Improvement Project, was initiated to assess interior climate conditions at the 210 N. Lena Road Fleet Garage. The Project was originally funded at $69,510 to evaluate the existing garage and develop recommendations for improvements. The assessment explicitly excluded design efforts and construction cost estimates were a preliminary estimate.
PFMD retained on-call mechanical and electrical engineers to conduct site visits and assess existing conditions at the Fleet Garage. The engineers evaluated the ventilation system, building envelope, and interior climate conditions and determined that meaningful temperature reductions can be achieved through a combination of improved air circulation, enhanced heat rejection, and upgraded exterior insulation via roof replacement.
The design consultants have submitted a proposal to provide design development and construction support services for these temperature improvements. The scope of design includes high-volume air circulation fans, exhaust fans integrated with an automated climate management system, and a new roof.
All work will be designed and constructed in compliance with applicable California Building Code requirements. The Project supports Fleet Management’s operations at 210 N. Lena Road by improving worker comfort and safety conditions within the garage facility.
The recommended action will approve the budget adjustment in the amount of $152,340 for the Project, which will allow PFMD to proceed with the design phase of the Project.
