BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The project was awarded to Granite Construction, of Stockton, on October 7, 1998, in the amount of $390,665.00. Granite Construction and the City did not want the Elm Street construction to interfere with the Grape Bowl Classic band review, so the start of work was postponed until the spring of 1999. The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by the City Council. The contract completion date was July 15, 1999, and the actual completion date was July 15, 1999. The final contract price was $482,946.50. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to extra work done by the contractor to remove and replace unsuitable subgrade which was found under the existing pavement, and the installation of a new 8 -inch water main along the Reese School frontage. Staff is requesting that an additional $54,000.00 be appropriated from Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds to cover the project costs. FUNDING: Budgeted Fund: Gas Tax Fund $ 95,490.00 Federal Funds $258,520.00 TDA $ 74,990.00 (the above funds were appropriated at contract award) Requested Appropriation: TDA $ 54,000.00 Prepared by Wesley K.
