AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Downtown Sidewalk Paver Maintenance
MEETING DATE: September 16, 2015
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept improvements under contract for Downtown Sidewalk Paver
Maintenance.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Emert Construction, Inc., of Stockton, in
the amount of $64,133. The contract was executed on April 16, 2015
and has been completed in substantial conformance with the
specifications approved by City Council.
The purpose of this project was to eliminate tripping hazards in the downtown area. Public Works staff
performed a survey of the downtown area pavers and identified 100 separate locations totaling
approximately 1,900 square feet of pavers needing adjustment. This project removed the existing pavers,
re -compacted the base below the pavers, and then re -installed the pavers. During the project, additional
locations were identified that needed adjustment at the Transit Station.
The contract completion date was May 27, 2015, and the actual completion date was July 31, 2015. The
final contract price was $83,210. The difference between the contract and the final price and completion
dates were due to the additional work added at the Transit Station and the emergency work needed at Lodi
Avenue and Stockton Street related to a sink hole.
Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineer will 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 minimize the tripping hazards in downtown and the related
potential liability.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded through the General Liability Fund.
