TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
VIA: SERGIO GONZALEZ, CITY MANAGER
FROM: ROBERT DELGADILLO, P.E., DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORK/CITY
ENGINEER
DATE: AUGUST 21, 2023
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE PURCHASE AND INSTALLATION OF NORTHSIDE
RECREATION HUB HVAC SYSTEM
BACKGROUND:
On June 20, 2022 the City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 22/23 budget which authorized
$750,000 for the modernization of the Northside Recreation Hub (formerly referred to as the Scout
House) utilizing General Fund Excess Reserves. Following Public Works’ staff assessment, it is
recommended that the existing HVAC system be replaced. Shortly after the assessment was
complete, the existing HVAC system experienced a power surge that caused irreparable damage.
Currently the Northside Recreation Hub does not have any cooling capabilities.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following actions:
1)Waive purchasing procedures as authorized under Azusa Municipal Code Section 2.539
and approve the purchase and installation of the proposed HVAC equipment in the amount
not to exceed $144,454.72; and
2)Authorize the City Manager to execute a construction agreement with Mesa Energy
Systems, Inc. dba EMCOR Services for the purchase and installation of the proposed
Carrier HVAC system.

ANALYSIS:
On June 20, 2022 the City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 22/23 budget which authorized
$750,000 for the modernization of the Northside Recreation Hub (formerly referred to as the Scout
House) utilizing General Fund Excess Reserves. Following Public Works’ staff assessment, it is
recommended that the existing HVAC system be replaced. Shortly after the assessment was
complete, the existing HVAC system experienced a power surge that caused irreparable damage.
Currently the Northside Recreation Hub does not have any cooling capabilities.
The City’s purchasing procedures allow for the acquisition of equivalent equipment through a
process of competitive bidding by using other municipalities or through joint powers programs.
In this case, Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. dba EMCRO Services was able to provide the City with
a Sourcewell Contract (#CA-R7-HVAC02-123021-ES). The City can achieve the benefits of a
competitive bid without the additional costs and delays associated with the standard procurement
process.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for the purchase and installation of the Northside Recreation Hub HVAC system was
approved in the FY 22-23 Capital Improvement Program Budget through the use of the City’s
General Fund Excess Reserves. $144,454.72 will be utilized from Account # 1080000666-
7125/66623A-7125

General Project Clarifications
Concealed Conditions
If concealed or unknown conditions of an unusual nature which affect the performance of the work are encountered below the
roof line or above the ceiling or in an existing part of the building other than the work, which conditions are not ordinaril y found
to exist or which differ materially from those generally recognized as inherent in work of t he character provided for in this
Agreement, notice by the observing party shall be given promptly to the other party, if possible before conditions are distur bed
and in no event later than fourteen days after first observance of the conditions. The Contract Sum shall be equitably adjusted
for such concealed or unknown conditions by Change Order upon claim made within fourteen days after claimant becomes
aware of the conditions.
Regulatory Changes
Mesa Energy Systems Inc. shall be compensated for changes in the Work necessitated by the enactment or revision of codes,
laws or regulations subsequent to the execution of this Agreement.
Hazardous Materials
COMPANY hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. and its agents, employees,
consultants and subcontractors from and against any claim, damage, allegation, suit, cause of action, cost, loss, expense or
injury in connection with Hazardous Materials not introduced to the Project by the Indemnified Parties, including, without
limitation, all costs of remediation, experts, consultants or other costs in connection with Hazardous Materials associated w ith
the Project.
Unforeseen Conditions
COMPANY understands and agrees that Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. shall not be liable for added costs or time delays caused by
unforeseen conditions at the Project, including, without limitation, unanticipated rerouting of existing piping, fire sprinkl ers or
gas piping. In the event that the fire sprinklers, water, electrical conduit or gas piping are required to be relocated, Mesa shall
not be responsible for such work. Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. or a subcontractor under the control and supervision of COMPANY
shall perform such work.
NFPA 70E
Mesa technicians are trained to understand the specific hazards associated with electrical energy according to NFPA 70E,
Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace. They are trained in safety-related work practices and procedural requirements
as necessary to provide protection from the electrical hazards associated with their respective job or task assignments.
Documented safe work practices include lockout/tagout and energy isolation. Category 2 personal protective equipment is
issued for electrical hazards while working on voltages between 50 and 480 volts. Mesa's policy is to remove the energized
electrical hazard by working on de-energized circuits and by using the written lockout/tagout policies and procedures when
feasible.

This proposal, including but not limited to pricing and schedule, is made contingent upon the work addressed herein not being
adversely affected, either directly or indirectly, by the COVID-19 pandemic and/or the Corona virus. This proposal is further
conditioned upon the parties agreeing, prior to beginning of any work and in writing as part of any contract/subcontract, that
any (i) schedule issues (including, but not limited to, delay, acceleration, compression, interference, hindrance), (ii) over time
hours or added resources to perform work, (iii) shortages (whether as to labor, subcontracted services, materials, or supplies),
(iv) change orders, extra work, or extra costs, or (v) inefficiency and impacts relating to the foregoing, that arise as a re sult of
the COVID-19 pandemic or Corona virus will entitle contractor to a change order equitably addressing impacts to its time for
performance and costs.

Supply Chain
The parties understand and agree that (i) there are current issues with the manufacture and supply of various materials and
equipment (all, collectively, “Goods”), which issues generally are referred to as “supply chain disruption” (“Disruption”), (ii) the
Disruption arises from a variety of global, national, and local factors, all of which are beyond the control of Mesa Energy Systems,
and (iii) the Disruption has impacted suppliers’ ability to provide Goods by dates certain, in the quantities ordered, and/or for
the specified price.
This proposal is conditioned on Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. confirming the price, delivery time, and availability of goods with
Mesa Energy System’s subcontractors, vendors, and/or suppliers at the time when Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. and City of Azusa
are ready to enter a final contract for the proposed work. Mesa Energy Systems, Inc. reserves the right to (i) adjust the proposal
price and schedule in the final contract if needed due to such confirmation, and (ii) condition the final contract on, and in clude
in it, any reservations and/or limitations that Mesa Energy Systems Inc. must accept from its subcontractors, vendors, and/or
suppliers to obtain any goods.

equipment (all, collectively, “Goods”), which issues generally are referred to as “supply chain disruption” (“Disruption”), (ii) the
Disruption arises from a variety of global, national, and local factors, all of which are beyond the control of Mesa Energy Systems,
and (iii) the Disruption has impacted supplier’s ability to provide Goods by dates certain, in the quantities ordered, and/or for
the specified price.
Mesa Energy Systems therefore cannot guaranty the timely or complete performance of work that is dependent on the supply
of the following specific Goods for this project: To remove and replace of one existing package unit. Also to provide one new 5-
ton package unit.
And, to the extent Mesa Energy Systems’ supplier(s) are unable to meet their obligations to Mesa Energy Systems solely due to
the Disruption, Mesa Energy Systems (i) shall not be deemed in breach of contract or otherwise assessed costs or dam ages
arising from the Disruption and (ii) shall be entitled to (a) an equitable extension of time and (b) an increase in the contr act
price for Goods, but only if the price increases 1% above the price Mesa Energy Systems had secured from its supplier at t he
time of order.
