RECOMMENDED ACTION' Accept improvements under contract for Lodi Electric Utility Storage
Yard Block Wall.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project consists of removing approximately 482 lineal feet of
chain link fence (with barbed wire) at the Lodi Electric Utility storage
yard and constructing a 10 -foot high block wall. The fence is
located along the Woodbridge Irrigation District canal and was the last remaining portion of chain link
along the westerly property line. The chain link fence has been an ongoing maintenance issue and
security concern. The new block wall matches the existing block wall.
The project was awarded to Diede Construction Inc., of Lodi, on April 6, 2016, in the amount of $163,253.
The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the specifications approved by City
Council.
The contract was completed within the original contract schedule. The final cost of the project was
$164,775. The difference between the original bid price and the final contract cost ($1,522) was to
remove some buried, abandoned pipe and concrete encountered during the excavation for the wall
footing. See attached Exhibit A for before and after photos of the work.
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:
FUNDING AVAILABLE:
This project will reduce vandalism and theft in the storage yard and will
minimize the maintenance costs to the existing chain link fence.
This project was funded by Lodi Electric Capital Account (50199000).
