BACKGROUND <br /> This project is part of the annual maintenance program and will include removal and <br /> replacement of sidewalks that present potential tripping hazards and curb & gutter to <br /> improve drainage flow. Access ramps that are damaged or missing near the project <br /> work area will also be replaced to meet the current ADA standards. The locations are <br /> selected from the Street Department work order list and also from direct requests from <br /> residents to the Traffic Division (see Attachment 1 for project locations). <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> Bids <br /> Sealed bids for this project were opened on April 23, 2012. There were a total of five <br /> bids received ranging from $178,467.00 to $221,045.00 (see Attachment 2, Bid <br /> Summary). The engineer's estimate for this project was $200,000. <br /> The low bid of $178,467.00 was received from Rosas Brothers Construction of Oakland, <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 /> approximately 12% of the construction contract due to potential expansion of project <br /> limits due to latent 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 May 15, 2012 <br /> Start of Construction May 25, 2012 <br /> End of Construction July 31, 2012 <br /> Submitted by: Fiscal Review: Approve by: <br /> 1 17414 0 <br /> ( <br /> Brian /Ian Emily 9 Wa ner Nelson Fialho <br /> Director of Director of Finance City Manager <br /> Community Development <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
