BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Chrisp Company, of Fremont, on September 2, 2009, in the amount of $22,960. As the bid came in well below the estimate and the lane line painting was skipped in 2008 to reduce costs, staff received Council approval to increase the contract to $31,411.51, consistent with funds budgeted. The contract was completed in substantial conformance with the specifications approved by the City Council. The contract completion date was November 2, 2009. The final contract price was $31,248.37. The length of lane line painting completed was 91,867 linearfeet. The difference between the approved changed contract price and the final contract price was due to actual field measurements. 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 project will assist the Streets and Drainage Division in its continuing effort to maintain the City of Lodi's lane lines for visibility and safety. FUNDING AVAILABLE: The money for this project came from Measure K Maintenance FY2009/10. F.
