BACKGROUND INFORMATION-. This project repaired a portion of the subgrade below the existing paving stones installed as part of the Elm Street Reconstruction Project in 2001. The subgrade within the travel lanes had failed due to a combination of poor original compaction during construction and wet winter storm drainage damage over the past few years. This project consisted of the removal and replacement of approximately 5,000 square feet of existing paving stones, including work to scarify, recompact and regrade the existing subgrade and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the project. Plans and specifications for this project were approved on September 7, 2005. The City received the following three bids for this project on November 29, 2005: Bidder Engineer's Estimate Earth Shelters Developers Odyssey Landscape Company Nede Construction Location Bid $62,000 Lodi $57,585 Lodi $60,507 Lodi $64,693 The contract was signed on February 28, 2006. Actual work on the project was delayed until May 2006 after the rainy season. The final contract price was $114,207.78. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to Contract Change Order No. 2 which modified this contract to include the removal and replacement of areas needing paver repair work on School Street between Locust Street and Lodi Avenue. Council approved the expenditure of additional funds for the School Street repair work on June 15, 2006. The School Street work was done last fall after Labor Day and completed in December 2006. Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineer will file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office. The notice serves to notify vendors and subcontractors that the project is complete and begins their 30 -day period to file a stop notice requiring the City to withhold payments from the prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute.
