BACKGROUND:
On March 23, 2009, the City Council awarded a construction contract to National
Demolition Contractors in the amount of $13,800 along with a $2,070 change order
authority provided to the Public Works Director/City Engineer.
The scope of work consisted of hazardous material abatement and demolition of a
building located at 5041 Rhoda Way that once served as a youth sport storage
facility. The building was closed by the Risk Management Division more than five
(5) years ago due to its poor condition and the presence of asbestos and lead paint.
As part of the project and prior to the demolition of the building, the asbestos and
lead paint were abated utilizing procedures required by law.
DISCUSSION:
Following award, the work on the project was postponed due to various contractor
delays and staff workload on priority, time-sensitive federal ARRA (stimulus bill)
projects. In May 2010, National Demolition Constructors successfully completed the
work. The construction management was performed by staff with the design and City of Culver City, California
