BACKGROUND INFORMATION
On June 14, 2022, the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved the Lake Arrowhead Library Remodel Capital Improvement Program Project No. 22-017 for the 2022-23 budget cycle. The project includes new flooring and paint throughout, an updated shelving layout, new furniture, and a newly designed children’s area. After detailed review and investigation by the Project and Facilities Management Department (PFMD), it was determined that the project will require a budget increase in the amount of $16,100, from $100,000 to $116,100. Based on additional information from several on-site walks and carpet removal, the scope of work and construction costs required for asbestos removal proved to be greater than anticipated.
Approval of this increase and adjustment aligns with the County and Chief Executive Officer’s goal and objective to operate in a fiscally-responsible and business-like manner by allowing the Department to continue its renovation of the Lake Arrowhead Branch Library with the goal of enhancing staff and customer experience.
PROCUREMENT
PFMD will make a determination as to whether the project may be procured through use of an existing Board approved Job Order Contract or will otherwise competitively solicit bids following California Public Contract Code requirements.
