Body

DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

The contract for the Project was approved by the Board on May 19, 2020, Legistar 20-0598, Item 16.  All roadway repairs were completed by July 22, 2020.  Recordation of the NOA will start legal time frames for guarantees, a lien period, and return of retention monies.  Recordation of the NOA will also start the one-year time frame for releasing the Payment and Performance Bonds to the Surety.

 

Direct Construction Cost Summary:

 

Original Bid Price                     $ 486,786.00

Contract Item Cost                     $ 363,731.30

Contract Change Order Cost                     $     3,583.00

Total Direct Construction Cost                     $ 367,314.30

Direct Construction Budget                                          $ 515,665.00

 

Major Contract Change Orders on the Project dealt with the following:

                     Additional drain pipe was added to convey stormwater under the railroad to the adjacent creek.

                     Additional erosion control measures deemed necessary for the railroad project.

 

The final costs listed have been agreed to by the Contractor and approved by County staff.  Transportation has closed out the Project with the Contractor and those finalized costs are shown.

 

ALTERNATIVES

The Board could choose not to approve the NOA.  Transportation staff would make modifications as directed by the Board and return for Board approval of the NOA.  This would delay the release of the Payment and Performance Bonds and extend the Contractor’s warranty period.

 

PRIOR BOARD ACTION

The Board approved the Project for advertisement of bids on December 10, 2019, Legistar 19-0998, Item 31.

 

OTHER DEPARTMENT / AGENCY INVOLVEMENT

CAO RECOMMENDATION

Approve as recommended.

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT

There is no change to Net County Cost associated with this item.  The Project is budgeted in Transportation’s 2020 CIP, which was approved by the Board on June 9, 2020, Legistar 20-0675, Item 54, and funded by HLP Trust - Park Fees, SPTC JPA funds, Ponderosa Quimby Funds, ACO, and FEMA/Cal OES.  The anticipated direct construction cost is less than the direct construction budget established by the Board.
