January 16, 2002, in the amount of $158,592.00. The contract has
been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and
specifications approved by the City Council.
This project provided the City with a unit -price -based bid for removing and replacing curb, gutter, and
sidewalk at various intersections throughout the City and installing handicap ramps to meet the
requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This project was funded by Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds, and purchase orders were issued during the year using the
unit -price bids to utilize the full CDBG allocation. $237,482.00 was allocated from CDBG funds to pay for
the installation of these handicap ramps. Additional work at the corners increased the total cost of the
project to $263,567.85. Staff is recommending that street funds be used to cover the balance of the
project which was paid by CDBG funds.
Following acceptance by the City Council, the City Engineer will file a Notice of Completion with the
County Recorder's office.
