Authorize a payment to Southern California Gas Company in the amount <br />of $7,683.73 as final payment for the relocation of a 3-inch gas <br />main line located on Main Street north of Broadway Place. <br />2. Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the <br />attached second amendment to the Cooperative Agreement between the <br />City of Santa Ana and the Community Redevelopment Agency for the <br />manufacturing and installation of the Main Street archway sign <br />increasing the total amount by $7,683.73, subject to non-substantive <br />changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On July 2, 2007, City Council authorized a payment to Southern California <br />Gas Company in the amount of $75,540 to relocate the gas line on Main <br />Street just north of Broadway Place. Recently, the City received a final <br />invoice in the amount of $83,227.73 from the Gas Company for the actual <br />cost of work performed. The additional cost due to Gas Company is <br />$7,687.73. <br />The City Council awarded a contract to LNI Custom Manufacturing, Inc. for <br />the fabrication and installation of the new 87-foot wide Main Street <br />archway sign in October 2006. To accommodate the proposed sign post <br />footing location, the interfering underground gas line needed to be <br />relocated from the sidewalk into the street by Southern California Gas <br />Company. Based on the City's franchise agreement, Southern California <br />Gas Company is not responsible for the relocation cost of the gas line <br />since the scope of work for the Main Street Archway Sign project was not <br />a change of grade, alignment or width of a public street. The City, <br />therefore, is responsible for the full cost of relocating the gas line. <br />29B-1 <br />
