EXPLANATION:
Project Professionals Corporation ("PPC") is a qualified construction manager which has performed at
or above expectations on a variety of capital projects for the City of National City such as the Bay
Marina Drive widening, soccer field, and 23rd Street streetscape improvement. Following the approval
of a Cooperation Agreement between the City and CDC for completion of the Aquatic Center and
issuance of the 2011 Tax Allocation Bonds to fund construction, staff has moved swiftly to bring the
project to bid readiness in order to meet the three-year completion requirement of the Bond issuance.
Consequently on August 10, 2011 the Port of San Diego issued the Coastal Development Permit
required for the project which requires construction within two years and on August 24, 2011 the City of
National City approved the building permit for the project, which requires construction to be underway
within six months. Due to the need to get the project underway swiftly, staff waived the usual
competitive request for proposals process and requested a sole source proposal for project
management from PPC. Said proposal was reviewed and negotiated with leadership from the Director
of Development Services/City Engineer and analyzed against the California Multi -Agency Benchmarking
Study, 2010. The scope and cost for these services has been determined to be reasonable.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: ACCOUNT NO.
APPROVED: Finance
524-409-500-598-3816. The proposed Agreement shall not exceed $291,777. The current
construction estimate for the Aquatic Center is $3.01 million, plus soft costs, public art, and staff
time charges of $947,720. The Port of San Diego is considering approval of $830,000 matching
funds to be applied to the project. The Agreement stipulates that no pledge of General Funds is
being made but that redevelopment and Port funding shall be used for the project.
