That the City Council:
A.  Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Total Security Solutions, Placentia, California, in the amount of $237,267.00, for the Police Department installation of level three bullet resistant windows, and authorize staff issue a purchase order in the amount of $260,993.70, which includes up to a 10% Project contingency; and

B.  Appropriate $130,496.85 from General Fund Facility Improvement reserves and $130,496.85 from the Asset Seizure Fund to cover the cost of this project.

The proposed project includes the installation of level three bullet resistant framing and glass at the Police Department main lobby and employee entrances, as well as the replacement of all external non-bullet resistant doors with level three metal doors, and the installation of internal framing system and level three bullet resistant polycarbonate clad acrylic glass windows for all the remaining non-bullet resistant exterior windows.

Staff solicited bids for local experts in the field of building security and received three (3) bids with following results:

After reviewing project proposals, staff determined that the apparent low bidder, Total Security Solutions proposal included a back glaze window system that does not require the removal and replacement of the existing windows, but rather the installation of an internal level three bullet resistant frame and glass for 13 exterior windows.  This method of construction will expedite the installation without damaging or requiring modifications to the external walls of the building and would not require any painting. The contractor has successfully completed similar projects, has no record of excessive Change Order requests on prior contracts, and maintains a current and valid Contractor's License.
