AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Lodi Public Library Entry Project
MEETING DATE: October 7,2009
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept the improvements under the Lodi Public Library Entry
Project contract.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contractfor this project was awarded to S.W. Allen
Construction, Inc., of Sacramento, on November 19, 2008, in the
amount of $37,244.75.
This project consisted of removing the existing concrete entry to the Lodi Public Library and replacing it
with a new concrete ramp and guardrails. The project also included replacing the existing exterior
automatic door system, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and
specifications for the above project.
The final contract price was $48,725.19. The difference between the contract amount and the final
contract price was due to contract change orders, which increased the quantities of import material and
concrete work and paid for the painting of the railings to match the green color of Downtown amenities.
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: There will be no additional maintenance costs associated with the project.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Community Development Block Grant Funds ($48,725.19)
