RESOLUTION OF THE BAKERSFIELD CITY COUNCIL
DISPENSING WITH FORMAL BIDDING PROCEDURES
DUE TO THE URGENT NECESSITY FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE BAKERSFIELD POLICE
DEPARTMENT SHOOTING RANGE SOUND
MITIGATION PROJECT AND AUTHORIZING
SUPERIOR CONSTRUCTION, INC., FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF SAID PROJECT, NOT TO
EXCEED $1,000,000.
WHEREAS, Bakersfield Police Department completed Phase 1 of the
Shooting Range project, which constructed a pre-engineered metal building and
a new baffling system, which greatly improved the safety and conditions of the
site; and
WHEREAS, Bakersfield Police Department would like to proceed with Phase
2 of the project, which would include sound mitigation at the shooting range
facility which would bring the sound levels to within OSHA compliance levels, and
protect the health and safety of the police officers at the facility; and
WHEREAS, the Public Works Department and Bakersfield Police Department
have worked together to find solutions for improving the existing sound conditions
at the shooting range, and have been successful in finding a sound mitigation
materials manufacturer and supplier, Troy Acoustics, that specifically works on law
enforcement shooting range projects at the local, state and federal level, and
have determined that using this materials supplier in conjunction with Superior
Construction, Inc., is the most feasible solution; and
WHEREAS, Bakersfield Police Department currently is unable to use the
shooting range site due to sound safety concerns and currently has to find
alternate solutions for training staff and weapons certifications; and
WHEREAS, to meet the needs of the Bakersfield Police Department, the
Police Shooting Range Sound Mitigation Project must be completed as urgently
as possible, and the most feasible solution is to enter into a contract with Superior
Construction, Inc., which is the same General Contractor who constructed the
Shooting Range's pre-engineered metal building in Phase 1 of the project; and
WHEREAS, the Public Works Director recommends the Council authorize the
proposed construction and dispense with bidding requirements, in accordance
with BMC Section 3.20.60(D) (4).
