Ready, City Manager BY: Library Services Department Public Works and Engineering Department SUMMARY Award of this contract would allow the Library to use Measure Y funds to replace all existing glass doors on the Library Center Building. RECOMMENDATION: 1. APPROVE A PURCHASE ORDER CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT OF $36274.00 WITH MAGIK GLASS & DOOR, FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF EXTERIOR GLASS DOORS OF THE LIBRARY CENTER. 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents. STAFF ANALYSIS: The Library Center building was completed in 1975. The newest of the glass exterior doors are the main entrance electric doors, installed in 1995. Due to heavy use over the years, building settling, seismic activity, sun damage, and materials age, none of the doors close or lock properly. This makes the Library Center prone to vandalism and burglary as well as loss of heating and cooling energy. In addition due to the age of the security system, there are no alarms on the exit doors panic bars thereby providing easy illegal exit opportunities. Project specifications have been prepared by the Library and Public Works/Facilities Maintenance Department staff. ITEM NO.
