<br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the City Manager <br /> <br />June 26, 2000 <br /> <br />Subject <br />Final Acceptance (Stacy Witbeck, Inc.) - Rubberized Railroad Crossings in the Cities of <br />Burlingame and San Mateo Engineering File No. 801-05 <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Accept the construction of the Rubberized Railroad Crossings in the Cities of <br />Burlingame and San Mateo, and authorize the release of the bonds to the Contractor. <br /> <br />Background <br />On September 21, 1998, by Resolution No. 13461, the City Council awarded the <br />Contract for the Rubberized Railroad Crossings in the Cities of Burlingame and San <br />Mateo to Stacy Witbeck, Inc. of San Francisco, California, in the amount of <br />$1,228,623.50. A total of five (5) at-grade railroad crossings were improved and <br />upgraded. These at-grade crossings included Broadway, Howard Avenue, and Oak <br />Grove Avenue in Burlingame, 25th Avenue in San Mateo, and Peninsula Avenue, which <br />is in both Burlingame and San Mateo. At the direction of the Joint Powers Board <br />(JPB), the at-grade panels were changed from rubber to concrete. The work has been <br />satisfactorily completed and accepted by the JPB, and each of the respective cities. <br /> <br />There were a total of 23 change orders totaling $72,982.98. This represents 5.9% over <br />the original contract award amount, with a final contract amount of $1,301,606.48. <br /> <br />Although this recommendation will close out the construction contract, staff is awaiting <br />final costs from the JPB for Construction Management, Inspection, flagging and other <br />related expenses. Once these costs are reviewed and substantiated, a final report will <br />be prepared recommending closing out JPB's Service Agreement with the City. <br /> <br />Fiscal Impacts <br />Funds in the amount of $1,301,606.48 have been appropriated in the 1996/1997, <br />1998/1999, and 1999/2000 Capital Improvements Program for Gas Tax Construction, <br />and are reimbursed from Federal and State Grant Funds, and from the Cities of <br />Burlingame and San Mateo. <br /> <br />~ ./ <br />~/¿,4&j» / ./ <br />Brian Lee - <br />Senior Civil Engineer <br /> <br /> <br />e atterson <br />anager, Engineering & Construction <br /> <br />., :1 <br />'f' ;: <br />/' '1, 1,: <br />J !' .! <br />'f:' >vJJif"'- <br /> <br />Ed Éverett <br />City Manager <br /> <br />BLss <br />sAibrary/reportslbrian/A CCEPT ANCE- RUBBE RIlED RRXING <br /> <br />.~_.-... --'I' <br />
