OC Public Works is adding an addtional $100,000 capacity to the contract for John Wayne Airport (JWA) maintenance requirements.

 

OC Public Works is recommending the Board approval to authorize the County Procurement Officer or Deputized designee to execute Amendment No. 2 to renew aggregate Contracts with the Contractors for Services, effective January 28, 2024, through January 27, 2025, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $600,000, for an aggregate cumulative total amount not to exceed $4.1million. The work will be assigned to whichever Contractor is available and, depending upon the request, work can be assigned to multiple Contractors at the same time.

 

The Contractors’ respective performances have been confirmed as satisfactory. OC Public Works has verified there are no concerns that must be addressed with respect to Contractors’ ownerships/names, litigation status or conflicts with County interests. Covello’s Pacific AirCare, Inc. is based in Riverside County and The Machado Environmental Corporation dba Air Duct Cleaning Company is based in Los Angeles County.

 

The Contract does not currently include subcontractors or pass through to other providers. See Attachment C for the Contract Summary Forms.

 

Prior to Contract expiration, OC Public Works plans to issue a solicitation to continue Services.

 

Compliance with CEQA: The proposed project was previously determined to be Categorically Exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1) on January 28, 2020, when it was originally approved because it involves the operation, repair, maintenance or minor alternation of existing structures, facilities or mechanical equipment involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former uses. The proposed project is still consistent with this determination.

 

 

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

 

Appropriations for the aggregate Contract are included in Budget Control 080, OC Public Works, and Fund 280, JWA, FY 2023-24 Budget and will be included in the budgeting process for future years. 

 

The Contract includes a provision stating that the County has the right to immediately terminate this Contract without penalty for cause or after 30 days' written notice without cause.
