Analysis:
The proposed Police Canine Training Facility Project will improve the lot adjacent to the Huntington Beach Police Department (HBPD) Helipad in preparation for the construction of a new outdoor canine training area and movement training building. The improvement will consist of the removal and disposal of existing dirt and rocks, grading, construction of drainage rock buffers, and the paving of new asphalt concrete over new aggregate base. This will create a parking lot and a path of travel for police vehicles. Bids were electronically opened on July 28, 2023 with the following results:

As part of the larger future HBPD Training Facility project, PD has retained a separate contractor for the demolition and construction of the dog training course and movement training building. After bids opened, the police department’s contractor took on additional work resulting in scope reduction of the CC1744 project. As a result, the contract award was reduced from $147,780.00 to $134,387.26.
The total cost of the project is $147,826.00 as outlined below:
