REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br />SEPTEMBER 19, 2017 <br />TITLE: <br />APPROVE REVISED COST ANALYSIS <br />FOR THE GRANT -FUNDED BISHOP/ <br />PACIFICISHELTON BICYCLE <br />BOULEVARDS PROJECT <br />(PROJECT NO. 15-6848) <br />(STRATEGIC PLAN NOS. 6, 1B 8/1 G) <br />ER <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br />APPROVED <br />❑ As Recommended <br />❑ As Amended <br />❑ Ordinance on 16' Reading <br />❑ Ordinance on 2 n Reading <br />❑ Implementing Resolution <br />❑ Set Public Hearing For <br />CONTINUED TO <br />FILE NUMBER <br />Approve a revised Project Cost Analysis for the grant -funded Bishop/Pacific/Shelton Bicycle <br />Boulevards project that redirects $95,000 in cost savings achieved through efficiencies in <br />administration, inspection, and testing to the contingency, and increases the scope of work to <br />include the Pacific Avenue/Myrtle Street intersection, resulting in a net zero change in the original <br />approved construction delivery cost of $1,095,140. <br />DISCUSSION <br />On November 15, 2016, City Council awarded a contract to Excel Paving Company, the lowest <br />responsive bidder, in the amount of $876,111, with a contingency of $87,612, to construct the <br />grant -funded Bishop/Pacific/Shelton Bicycle Boulevards project. Adding other ancillary costs for <br />contract administration, inspection, and testing resulted in an approved total delivery cost of <br />$1,095,140. The project improves safety for bicyclists and pedestrians by installing Class III <br />bicycle lanes on BishopNVillits Street from Raitt Street to Flower Street, on Pacific Avenue from <br />McFadden Avenue to First Street, and on Shelton Street from McFadden Avenue to First Street <br />(Exhibit 1). <br />Due to limited funding, the original scope of work did not include the proposed improvements at <br />the intersection of Pacific Avenue at Myrtle Street, identified as "Alternate 1" on the bid <br />documents. However, now that the approved base bid work has been completed and a cost <br />savings of $95,000 has been realized, there are sufficient funds remaining to complete the <br />Pacific/Myrtle intersection without exceeding the original approved total delivery cost or changing <br />the construction contract. Approval of this recommended action is required to revise the <br />approved Cost Analysis and redistribute the project budget accordingly (Exhibit 2). <br />23A-1 <br />
