AGENDA TITLE: Acceptance of Improvements Under Contract for Central City Revitalization
Improvement Project, Cherokee Lane
MEETING DATE: August 5, 1998
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council accept the improvements under the "Central City
Revitalization Improvement Project, Cherokee Lane" 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 Granite Construction, of Stockton, on
February 5, 1997, in the amount of $3,865,318.00. The contract
has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications approved by the City Council.
In accordance with the City's Contract Change Order Policy (Resolution 85-72), the City Council is also
being informed of the contract change orders approved by the City Manager for this project. Contract
Change Order No. 10 replaced the street light lamps and ballasts to provide improved lighting on the
street. Contract Change Order No. 11 paid Granite Construction for additional work done in the medians
and at the signalized intersections. These two change orders increased the contract by $28,436.09.
Contract Change Orders 1 through 9 resulted in a net increase to the contract of $97,038.50.
The final contract amount is $3,990,792.59. 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.
FUNDING: At the time the improvements under the Downtown portion of the Central City Revitalization
project were accepted, Council was informed that a recommendation regarding the
appropriation of additional funds would be made when Cherokee Lane was accepted.
Additional funding will be needed from the street and utility funds to cover cost increases.
This recommendation is not complete and will be made at a future Council meeting.
