AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for Lodi Lake Nature Area Emergency Levee
Repair
MEETING DATE: June 21, 2017
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept improvements under contract for Lodi Lake Nature Area
emergency levee repair.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project consisted of placing quarry stone and rock within the river,
placing earth fill to rebuild the levee crown and other incidental and
related work to provide emergency repair of the existing levee along
Mokelumne River, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the above project.
On April 19, 2017, Council declared a local emergency and authorized the City Manager to execute the
required documents to perform the repairs. After conducting an informal bid, the City Manager executed a
contract with Ford Construction Company, Inc., of Lodi, in the amount of $94,010, on May 10, 2017. The
contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications.
The contract completion date was June 1, 2017. The final contract price was $165,194.45. The difference
between the original contract price and the final contract cost ($71,184.45) is due to one change order
which includes additional rock material needed to fill a large and unknown hole on the waterside of the
levee, remove and replace several signs and a bench to permit equipment access, to remove and replace
three areas of asphalt pavement, and regrade the decomposed granite path damaged by the heavy
equipment and delivery trucks. A photo of the completed project is shown in Exhibit A.
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 emergency project was funded using the General Fund Capital Outlay
Fund. Discussions with the Federal Emergency Management Agency staff
indicate the City is eligible to recover up to 75 percent of the project costs from
the Federal Government and 18.75 percent from the State of California. The
City of Lodi is responsible for the remaining funding obligation of 6.25 percent.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded from the General Fund Capital Outlay Fund.
