<br />6.2C <br /> <br /> <br />REPORT <br /> <br />To the Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From the Ci Mana er <br /> <br />June 28, 2010 <br /> <br />SUBJECT <br />Final Acceptance - 2008-2009 Street Overlay Project (Jefferson Avenue and Roosevelt <br />Avenue) <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Accept, by motion, the 2008-2009 Street Overlay Project, and authorize the release of <br />bonds and the retention according to city procedures. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />On July 27, 2009, Council awarded the construction contract for the 2008-2009 Street <br />Overlay Project to G. Bortolotto & Co., Inc. The project was awarded for a base bid of <br />$578,096.39. Construction began in September, 2009, and concluded in June, 2010. <br />The project is successfully completed in accordance with the plans and specifications. <br />Two (2) change orders totaling $58,227.80 were issued. The final contract amount is <br />$636,324.19, and 10.1 % more than the contract amount initially awarded. Change <br />orders resulted from quantity adjustments. <br /> <br />A federal grant totaling $736,000.00 has been awarded for the work of this specific <br />project, as a result of staff's timely application for American Recovery and Reinvestment <br />Act of 2009 (ARRA) funds. This project resurfaced the segments of Jefferson Avenue <br />located north of Farm Hill Boulevard, and Roosevelt Avenue between Upton Street and <br />Alameda de las Pulgas. <br /> <br />AL TERNA TIVES <br />Council may choose not to accept the project or authorize the release of bonds and <br />retention which would be contrary to the terms of the contract, prior Council action, and <br />public contracting code. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The general work of this project is reimbursed by the ARRA grant which totals <br />$736,000.00. The contract amount is much lower than estimated due to the highly <br />competitive bid environment experienced last year. Only the actual amount spent on <br />this project will be reimbursed by the grant, including staff costs. <br /> <br /> <br />-?n4at~~~CA.-.a--~~ ~~ <br />M.
