BACKGROUND The streetlights in the Valley Trails Neighborhood were in need of replacement. Several of the foundations had started to shift causing the poles to lean, the paint was peeling from the poles, and fixtures had reached the end of their useful life. On March 7, 2006, the City Council approved the award of the Valley Trails streetlight replacement contract to the lowest bidder, Bleyco, Inc. in the amount of $331,637.00. At that time, a 20% contingency amount of $66,327.00 was approved to cover unforeseen changes and the possibility of necessary additional foundation replacements. The base bid amount of $331,637.00 included replacement of 159 streetlights and 10 concrete foundations. It was only necessary to replace 4 concrete foundations which reduced the total work performed on the contract to $322,787.00. Staff added four poles to the contract through a change order and approved other minor change orders. The modification of the number of foundations needing replacement and the additional change orders resulted in a total contract price of $345,359. The project is complete and staff recommends acceptance of the public improvements and authorization for final payment of $1,893.35 and the release of retention in the amount of $17,168.30.
