A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE
CITY OF TEMECULA COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT
APPROVING A CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT WITH 2H
CONSTRUCTION FOR THE STRUCTURAL RENOVATION OF
THE CHILDREN'S MUSEUM BUILDING
THE CITY OF TEMECULA COMMUNITY SERVICES DISTRICT RESOLVES AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Board of Directors of the City of Temecula Community Services
District hereby finds, determines and declares that:
a. On September 17, 2002, the Board of Directors awarded a bid for
the remodeling and renovation of a building located at 42081 Main Street
in the City's Old Town Area for the Temecula Children's Museum. In
addition to the remodeling and renovation of the building, the Board also
awarded a contract for the construction and installation of extensive and
complicated creative exhibits for the children. As the construction
progressed, the contractor and staff discovered that severe structural
problems exist in the exterior bearing wall of the structure, threatening the
building's stability. Following an engineering investigation was
conducted. It was determined that the wall would need to be
reconstructed at the wall's joint with the foundation and the roof and that
other structur~.l improvements would be required to insure the structural
integrity and stability of the building and the safety of the persons who will
be using the building. The work required to reconstruct the wall involves
specialized construction techniques.
b. 2H Construction has the special expertise and experience
required for the construction required to rehabilitate the structural integrity
of the building. A proposal was also solicited from the current contractor
for the project, which was higher than the proposal of 2H Construction.
2H Construction is also currently working on a historical restoration
project for the City of Temecula on a building located near the Children's
Museum building. Therefore, the mobilization and administrative costs for
2H Construction on the Children's' Museum Project will be less than other
outside contractors.
c. It is necessary to interrupt the renovation of the building and the
construction of the Children's Museum exhibits in order to address the
structural renovation of the walls. Lengthy delays in bidding for the
structural renovation work will substantially increase the costs of the
building renovation and exhibits.
d. Based on the findings set forth above, the Board of Directors
hereby finds and determines that the method of selecting the contractor
for the structural renovation of the Children's Museum building has
enabled the City to obtain excellent bids from qualified contractors in a
short period of time so as to allow for the prompt structural renovation of

the Children's Museum and the protection of the public health, safety and
general welfare. The Board of Directors further finds and determines that
based upon the findings set forth above, full compliance with the
otherwise applicable requirements of the Public Contracts Code would be
unavailing, would not produce an advantage for the City, and would thus
be undesirable, impractical, and impossible. The City's authority to
proceed with the structural renovation in this manner was established in
Graydon v. Pasadena Redevelopment Agency et aL (1980) 104 Cal. App.
2"d 631 and the cases cited therein.
Section 2. The Board of Directors of the City of Temecula Community Services
District hereby approves that certain Agreement between the Board and 2H Construction, Inc.,
in the amount of one hundred fifty one thousand one hundred sixty five dollars ($151,165.00) for
the structural renovation of the Children's Museum building and authorizes the President to
execute the Agreement in substantially the form submitted to the City.
Section 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
