BACKGROUND <br /> This project is part of the annual maintenance program and will include removal and <br /> replacement of sidewalk that presents tripping hazards and damaged curb & gutter. <br /> Access ramps that are damaged or missing near the project work area will also be <br /> replaced to meet the current ADA standards. The locations are selected from the Street <br /> Department work order list and also from direct requests from residents to the Traffic <br /> Division (see Attachment 1 for project locations). <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> Bids <br /> Sealed bids for this project were opened on September 14, 2010. There were a total of <br /> eleven bids received ranging from $123,405 to $179,804, compared with the engineer's <br /> estimate of $151,000 for the project (see Attachment 2, Bid Summary). <br /> The low bid of $123,405 was received from JJR Construction, Inc. of San Mateo, <br /> California. Since all bid documents were found to be in order and past work performed <br /> by this contractor was verified to be satisfactory, staff is recommending award of the <br /> construction contract to this firm. <br /> Budget <br /> Staff recommends that the construction contingency amount for this project be set at <br /> 20% of the construction contract due to potential expansion of project limits due to latent <br /> defects that become apparent during the demolition phase. <br /> Schedule <br /> The proposed schedule for the subject project is as follows: <br /> Approval of Plans and Specifications and Award of Contract October 5, 2010 <br /> Start of Construction November 1, 2010 <br /> End of Construction December 2010 <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approved by: <br /> rian Do /)14 <br /> an Emily Wagner Nelson Fialho <br /> Director of Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Community Development <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
