MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 4, 2012
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION TO AWARD A CONTRACT FOR THE ROOF
REPLACEMENT ON FIRE STATION #1
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider approval of a resolution to award a contract for the roof
replacement on Fire Station #1 to Weatherproofing Technologies, Inc. through an
established interlocal agreement with The Cooperative Purchasing Network (TCPN).
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funding for this purchase is currently available in account 174-74004-012-000 (Capital
Replacement/Roof Program Repairs and Maintenance) in the amount not to exceed
$101,824.37.
BACKGROUND:
This contract award will be made in accordance with an existing interlocal agreement
with The Cooperative Purchasing Network (TCPN) as allowed by Texas Local
Government Code, Section 271.102 Cooperative Purchasing Program. Council
approved participation in the cooperative on May 16, 2000.
Bids were taken by the cooperative and a contract was awarded to Weatherproofing
Technologies, Inc. The current contract will expire on October 31, 2012. The interlocal
agreement satisfies all bidding requirements under Texas Local Government Code.
The contractor will:
• remove the shingles, felt, gutters and 2X fascia from the building,
provide and install new 30 pound felt with 30 year dimensional shingles,
provide and install ridge vents along each section of roof,
provide and install new 2X fascia,
paint and install new 24 gauge gutters and downspouts, and
• provide a two year warranty against defects in workmanship.
The existing roof is over 17 years old and repair costs are increasing every year due to
high winds blowing off shingles.
The Facilities Department staff reviewed the contract for specification compliance and
pricing and determined that the contract would provide the best product and pricing for
meeting the needs of the City.
Weatherproofing Technologies, Inc. has provided similar work to the City in the past with
satisfactory results.
Staff recommends approval.
