AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for
Stockton Street Improvements
MEETING DATE: March 20, 2013
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for
bids for Stockton Street Improvements.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project consists of furnishing and installing approximately
5,200 square feet of asphalt concrete and aggregate base,
approximately 550 lineal feet of concrete vertical curb, gutter and
sidewalk, storm drain inlets, and curb return; relocating an existing signal pole; providing traffic signal
loop detectors and modifications; and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and
specifications for the above project.
On October 14, 2008, Council approved an Improvement Deferral Agreement for Thule Hitch Systems for
the property located at 1313 South Stockton Street. The Improvement Deferral Agreement required the
owner to pay for and/or complete frontage improvements along Stockton Street within two years from the
approval date. Since that time, Thule Hitch Systems sold the property to Mepco Company before the
required improvements were completed. As a condition of sale, Thule Hitch Systems was required to
fulfill the terms of the original Improvement Deferral Agreement by paying the City $110,000 for frontage
improvements along Stockton Street. The Public Works Department will hire a contractor to construct the
improvements.
The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date
is April 10, 2013. The project estimate is $150,000. The difference between the Improvement Deferral
Agreement amount ($110,000) and the project estimate ($150,000) is due to the Public Works
Department expanding the original scope of work to include needed improvements to the northwest curb
return and signal at the Kettleman Lane and Stockton Street intersection.
FISCAL IMPACT: The project will increase the long-term maintenance cost of the added
pavement sections.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at project award.
