<br />...5./£)-/ <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the Ci Mana er <br /> <br />September 12, 2005 <br /> <br />Subject <br />Award of Contract - Water Main & Sewer Main Replacement On Broadway Project <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />Approve the Contract Documents and award the contract for the Water Main & Sewer <br />Main Replacement On Broadway Project to the lowest bidder, Shaw Pipeline, Inc. of <br />San Francisco, California, for their bid of $383,275.00. <br /> <br />Background <br />As part of the "On Broadway" development and the proposed Streetscape <br />Improvements downtown, the existing water lines need to be relocated, and sewer <br />mains on Broadway need to be replaced. The existing 16" water main needs to be <br />relocated to accommodate the new median island and palm trees for the pedestrian <br />drop off area on Broadway. With the new cinema and proposed new restaurants on <br />Middlefield Road, the capacity of the existing sewer main will be increased from 8" to <br />10" on Broadway. <br /> <br />A notice to inform the general public will be published in the local paper in advance of <br />starting the work. The location of the work is on Broadway from Jefferson Avenue to <br />Hamilton Street. The contract time for the work to be completed is 45 calendar days <br />after Notice to Proceed. We expect the work to be completed no later than November <br />3, 2005. <br /> <br />Pedestrian foot traffic will remain open at all times, but vehicular traffic will be closed <br />during the hours of 7 am until 7 pm. Transferring water services at night or weekends <br />will further minimize disruption to the businesses. The contractor will notify each <br />business when their water and sewer services will be transferred. <br /> <br />As an option to the contract and to expedite completion of the project, vehicular traffic <br />will remain closed at night and on weekends during the 45 calendar-day period. This <br />will be determined based on review of the contractor's overall schedule. <br /> <br />Bids for the above-referenced project were opened in the Office of the City Engineer <br />(public counter - Maps & Records area) Wednesday, September 7, 2005, and are <br />summarized below. <br />
