AGENDA TITLE: Accept Improvements Under Contract for 2017 DeBenedetti Park Trail and Parking
Lot Improvements Project
MEETING DATE: December 6, 2017
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION Accept improvements under contract for 2017 DeBenedetti Park Trail
and Parking Lot Improvements Project.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: DeBenedetti Park is heavily used from spring through fall for various
sports, primarily soccer. Many visitors park on Lower Sacramento
Road and a portion of Century Boulevard, most of which is not wide
enough to accommodate parallel -parked vehicles. Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services staff has
received comments from the Police Department and the public about the need for additional parking.
This project consisted of removing the turnaround at the end of the existing parking lot, extending the
access road, constructing a parking lot addition, constructing a walkway connecting to Heavenly Way, and
other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the above project.
The contract was awarded to A.M. Stephens Construction Company, Inc., in the amount of $630,137, on
May 17, 2017. The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications approved by City Council on March 1, 2017.
The contract completion date was November 1, 2017, and the actual completion date was October 23,
2017. The final contract price was $739,989. The difference between the contract amount and the final
contract price is due to the addition of minor electrical work and substantial pavement repair work at Lodi
Lake Park, which was authorized by a separate City Council action on September 6, 2017. Photos of the
parking lots for DeBenedetti Park and Lodi Lake Park are 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:
There will be a slight increase in Parks maintenance costs. The paving work
at Lodi Lake eliminates a substantial amount of uneven pavement reducing
the City's exposure to potential trip and fall claims.
