City Council
6. AUTHORIZATION TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH VICON ENTERPRISE INC., FOR THE CONSTRUCTION
OF AN OIL CONTAINMENT SYSTEM AT THE VILLA SUBSTATION FOR THE WATER AND POWER
DEPARTMENT (Water & Power Dept.)
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council:
(1) Find the proposed action in the agenda report to be categorically exempt under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(b) (Existing Facilities) and that there are no
features that distinguish this project from others in the exempt class, and therefore, there are no unusual
circumstances; and
(2) Accept the bid dated March 7, 2023, submitted by Vicon Enterprise Inc., ("Vicon"), in response to the
specifications for the construction of an oil containment system at the Villa Substation for the Water and Power Department
(“PWP”); and authorize the City Manager to enter into a contract with Vicon for an amount not-to-exceed $603,750 or
for a period of two years, whichever occurs first.
