AGENDA TITLE: Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize Advertisement for Bids for
2014-2015 Fence Repair Program, Various Locations
MEETING DATE: February 19, 2014
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement for
bids for 2014-2015 Fence Repair Program, Various Locations.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: City grape stake fences and block walls are occasionally destroyed
around town by vehicle accidents or intentional vandalism.
Previously, the City has hired contractors to repair the segments on
a case-by-case basis. This method has historically been effective for small sections; however, the
repairs have been delayed for larger projects.
This project will allow the City to hire a contractor on an "as -needed" basis to quickly respond to any
necessary repairs, regardless of the size. The contract will include masonry block repair and replacing
damaged grape stake fences with matching slump stone block.
The plans and specifications are on file in the Public Works Department. The planned bid opening date
is March 12, 2014. The initial contract estimate is $50,000.
FISCAL IMPACT: The project will have a minimal impact on total maintenance cost but will
reduce the City's liability associated with the damaged walls by reducing
the repair response times.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funding will be identified at project award.
