RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with A Thru Z Consulting
& Distributing, Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $245,000 for the
installation of new aviary netting at the Colors of the Amazon Aviary at
the Santa Ana Zoo at Prentice Park.
DISCUSSION
In 2003, the City received Roberti Z'Berg Harris Grant funds to replace
the aviary netting for the Colors of the Amazon Aviary due to
deterioration. The new netting will provide added security for the
animals in the aviary exhibit as well as provide a durable, long lasting
enclosure with minimal maintenance costs.
Three qualified firms were contacted, A Thru Z, International Cordage and
Nets Unlimited. Due to limited staff resources only one firm, A Thru Z,
submitted a proposal. A Thru Z has prior experience in working with the
City, having installed the original netting for the Aviary. Both the
Public Works and Parks and Recreation Community Services Agencies are
familiar with their expertise in the aviary netting field. Based on
these qualifications, staff recommends the firm of A Thru Z be retained
for the required services in the not-to-exceed amount of $245,000.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, Environmental
Review No. 2002-304 has been completed and a Negative Declaration has
been filed for this project.
