SUBJECT: CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH LYNCO ASSOCIATES
FOR REPAIRS OF THE RAINMAKER FOUNTAIN AT FRANCES
STEVENS PARK.
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Community & Economic Development
SUMMARY
The Public Arts Commission has sought proposals to repair the Rainmaker Fountain at
Frances Stevens Park, Lynco Associates specializes in "water features" and submitted
a proposal in the amount of $35,000.00 to repair the interior surfaces of the pools and
arroyo and clean and seal the exterior surfaces. The Public Arts Commission felt that
Lynco Associates presented the best solution for long-term maintenance and integrity of
the Fountain.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve Minute Order No authorizing the Contract Services Agreement with
Lynco Associates in the amount of$35,000.00; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Public Arts Commission Subcommittee has spent over a year researching and
reviewing solutions to repair the interior and exterior surfaces of the Fountain. The top
layer of the interior surfaces of the pools and arroyo has delaminated (eroded) and
needs a new topcoat. It was originally treated with a "cool deck" surface, which has not
held up to the extreme conditions of the heavy chlorine and acid use of the Fountain.
The process to repair the interior surfaces for long-term integrity requires abrasive
blasting and/or grinding to remove the remaining material; pressure injection of all
visible or exposed cracks with epoxy resin and corrosion inhibitor to reduce damage
from water leaching through cracks; and installing a new coating system keeping the
same color that the Artist originally intended. The exterior surfaces would be cleaned
Item No. 2 . D .

with pressure washing and an application of corrosion inhibitor in areas where
reinforcing steel exhibits rust stains. An application of a sealer to the exterior surface
will be applied which will bring out the red color of the cement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The contract amount is $35,000.00 and will be paid from the Public Arts Fund Account
#150-30-4408-43160. No gene al fund money will be used for this project.

such action.

injured party shall notify the injuring party in writing of its contentions by submitting a claim
therefor. The injured party shall continue performing its obligations hereunder so long as
the injuring party commences to cure such default within ten (10) days of service of such

notice, or such longer period as may be permitted by the injured party; provided that if the
default is an immediate danger to the health, safety and general welfare, such immediate
action may be necessary. Compliance with the provisions of this Section shall be a
condition precedent to termination of this Agreement for cause and to any legal action, and
such compliance shall not be a waiver of any party's right to take legal action in the event
that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing herein shall limit City's or the
Contractor's right to terminate this Agreement without cause pursuant to Section 7.8.
7.3 Retention of Funds. Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from

compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all
amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor's acts or
omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor's obligation under this Agreement.
In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is
disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis
for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest
because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City
to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of
the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by
a nondefaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a
waiver. A party's consent to or approval of any act by the other party requiring the party's
consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the other party's
consent to or approval of any subsequent act. Any waiver by either party of any default
must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any
other provision of this Agreement.

and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement,the rights and remedies
9
CONTRACT SERVICE AGREEMENT LYNCO A8SOCIATES.DOC

may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure,correct or remedy any default, to recover
damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain
declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of
this Agreement.
7.7 Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for
any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to

be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of -0-_($_-0-_)as liquidated
th damages for each working day of delay in e performance of any service required

of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance
with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion
by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost
for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein
