HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - March 18, 1998 (74)AGENDA TITLE: Acceptance of Improvements Under Contract for Central City Revitalization
Improvement Project, Downtown
MEETING DATE: March 18, 1998
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council accept the improvements under the "Central City
Revitalization Improvement Project, Downtown" contract and direct the
City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Diede Construction, of Woodbridge, on
February 5, 1997, in the amount of $4,114,160.48. The contract
has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications approved by the City Council.
The final contract amount is $4,350,567.35. Two additional minor work items are being negotiated with
Diede Construction and will be handled outside the construction contract. The difference between the
contract amount and the final contract price is due to higher quantities of some bid items actually
installed and contract change orders which have been reviewed by Council at previous meetings.
FUNDING: This projected is appropriated with the Cherokee Lane Project; the total appropriation for
both projects will need to be increased approximately 2 1/2% to cover cost increases.
A final accounting and recommendation for appropriation of additional funds will be made
at the acceptance of the Cherokee Lane Project. The additional funds are due to street
and utility work and will not affect the General Fund.
