AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Water Meter Program Non -Residential
Phase
MEETING DATE: November 18, 2015
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept Improvements under contract for Water Meter Program
Non -Residential Phase.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contract was awarded to Teichert Construction, of Davis, in the
amount of $754,044, on March 19, 2014. The contract has been
completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications approved by City Council.
The consisted of installing approximately 381 water meters at non-residential parcels, including
commercial, industrial, and public uses. The public uses include City -owned properties, such as
buildings, parks, and landscape areas. 1,047 sites were investigated for water service connections.
The work was completed within the contract required time frame. The final contract price was
$413,417.62. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is due to
substantial decreases in the required work based on field investigations of each parcel.
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: Water main leak and service repairs will be reduced. No additional costs
will be incurred for reading of the meters as they are automatically read
concurrent with the reading of the electric meters.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded by Water Capital Fund
