<br /> 0· ¡ 6-1 <br />REPORT <br /> To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> and the Redevelopment Agency Board from <br /> the Ci Mana er and Executive Director <br />August23,2004 <br />Subject <br />Award of Contract - Street Improvement Plans - Alley From Belle Avenue to Haven <br />Avenue (Between Rolison Road & Hoover Street). <br />Recommendation <br />That the City Council approve the Contract Documents and award the Street <br />Improvement Project for the Alley from Belle Avenue to Haven Avenue (between <br />Rolison Road & Hoover Street) Project to O'Grady Paving, Inc. of Mountain View, <br />California, for their low bid of $220,217.00. <br />Background <br />This project is to reconstruct a 900 foot-long alley adjacent to the 36-unit, affordable <br />housing project by Peninsula Habitat for Humanity, Inc., located on 3426-3486 Rolison <br />Road. <br />On April 14, 2000, the City of Redwood City (City) and the City's Redevelopment <br />Agency (Agency) entered into a "Transfer Agreement" with Peninsula Habitat for <br />Humanity, Inc. (Habitat) for the construction and resale of the abovementioned <br />affordable housing project. This Transfer Agreement specifically assigned the <br />completion of certain offsite improvements (as part of the Friendly Acres Neighborhood <br />Plan) following the transfer of the property from the City & Agency to Habitat. The <br />City/Agency's obligated offsite improvements consist of reconstruction of the pavement <br />in the alley, which is badly deteriorated. Also included will be an improved storm <br />drainage system, new street trees, new street humps, new fences along adjoining <br />property (to be completed as a separate project), and a new irrigation system. <br />Furthermore, the original Development Agreement for Habitat called for the Agency to <br />reimburse Habitat for the cost of irrigation installed for trees planted in the City's right- <br />of-way - presuming that the Habitat would install the irrigation. However, since the <br />City/Agency will install (through this contract) the irrigation, the City/Agency will use <br />funds from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) budgeted for this work. <br />The seven (7) bids received at the bid opening on August 16, 2004, are summarized <br />below: <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br />- - - -- T ,.,,- <br />
