body
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Hutchins Street Square Pool experienced water leakage through cracks and deteriorated concrete within the pool shell. Investigations by Siegfried Engineering, Inc., and Pacific Coast Leak Detection identified structural cracking and areas of concrete deterioration requiring repair. The project utilized pressure-injected epoxy to seal cracks, restore the integrity of the concrete shell, and reduce water leakage. These repairs are intended to extend the pool's service life by approximately five years until more comprehensive rehabilitation can be completed.
On May 6, 2026, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-092, authorizing the Interim City Manager or designee to award the construction contract and execute change orders within a combined amount not to exceed $40,000. The City received one bid on May 27, 2026, from Ichor Restoration of Prunedale, California, in the amount of $29,900. The contract was executed on July 28, 2026.
During construction, additional concrete deterioration and cracking were discovered, requiring Change Order No. 1 in the amount of $8,470. The project was completed in substantial conformance with the approved plans and specifications, with a final contract amount of $38,370, within the Council-authorized budget of $40,000.
Project photographs are provided in Exhibit A. Following Council acceptance, the City Engineer will file a Notice of Completion with the San Joaquin County Recorder in accordance with applicable law.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The final construction cost of $38,380 is within the previously authorized budget. The repairs are anticipated to reduce water leakage and associated maintenance needs while extending the pool's service life.
FUNDING AVAILABLE:
Funds were provided through a restricted donation from the Hutchins Street Square Foundation as identified on Resolution No. 2026-092.
