AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for School Street and Spruce Street
Wastewater Pipe Improvement Project
MEETING DATE: July 15, 2009
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept the improvements underthe School Street and
Spruce Street Wastewater Pipe Improvement Project contract.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contract for this projectwas executed with L. R. Gomez
Construction, of Dixon, on September 17, 2008, in the amount of
$63,130.
This project consisted of trenching and installing approximately 535 linearfeet of 8 -inch wastewater pipe,
abandoning the existing wastewater pipe, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the
plans and specifications for the above project.
The final contract price was $77,119.81. The difference between the contract amount and the final
contract price was due to Contract Change Order No. 1 which was issued to compensate the contractor
for delay time caused by conflicts with existing utilities and for additional labor, equipment and material
used to perform work around existing utilities. Contract Change Order No. 1 also included work done to
investigate a sewer problem in Mills Avenue and an increase in the quantity of curb, gutter and sidewalk.
Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineerwill 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.
FISCAL IMPACT: This projectwill decrease the amount of maintenance required for this
section of the wastewater pipe.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Wastewater Capital (171010) funds were used to cover the costs for this
project.
