AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for School Street Tree Well LED Light
Retrofit Project Lodi Avenue to Locust Street
MEETING DATE: February 3, 2016
PREPARED BY: Interim Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION Accept improvements under contract for School Street Tree Well
LED Light Retrofit Project Lodi Avenue to Locust Street.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The contract was awarded to RSW Construction, of Highland, in the
amount of $85,575, on August 19, 2015. The contract has been
completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications
approved by City Council on June 17, 2015.
The project included the installation of 139 LED tree well light fixtures and relocated 36 electrical outlets,
and associated work on School Street between Lodi Avenue and Locust Street (Exhibit A).
The contract was completed within the 40 -day contract duration. The final cost of the project was
$101,697. The difference between the original contract amount and final contract was due to one change
order totaling $16,122. The changes included replacing missing or damaged electrical receptacles,
replacement of conduit and wires at some locations, and anchorage of conduits within the tree wells.
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 inform vendors and subcontractors
that the project is complete and to initiate the 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: There will be a decrease in maintenance and electrical costs.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded through Public Benefits (50465100.72920).
