Approve a contract change order to add local street improvements to the construction contract with All American Asphalt in the amount of $1,000,000, which increases the total estimated contract to $7,786,182. 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute said change order in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 for construction of local streets. 3. Approve an appropriation adjustment recognizing $176,271 in unrecognized interest earnings on Gas Tax revenue bond proceeds, transferring the funds to the Gas Tax Residential Street Improvement revenue account, and appropriating the same into the Gas Tax Residential Street Improvement expenditure account, which totals $1,000,000 when added to the undesignated bond proceeds of $823,729. DISCUSSION The recommended action allows the City to commit the remaining balance of Residential Street Repair bond funds principal before its expiration at the end of Fiscal Year 2013 -14. By issuing a change order to the existing All American Asphalt, Inc., the contractor performing the Bristol Street Improvements between 2nd and 10th Streets, the City can meet the bond issuance commitment deadline and may benefit from low unit pricing for the residential street improvements. In December 2007, the City leveraged gas tax revenues as debt service for a $68 million bond. The funds were restricted for the purposes of rehabilitating local streets. Over the initial five years of the Residential Street Repair Bond Program project, streets were rehabilitated at much lower costs. Lower unit pricing from a favorable bid climate, economies of scale associated with large bid quantities, and advanced construction techniques enabled the City to perform more street rehabilitation work than anticipated. As a result, after each phase of construction, a balance remained unexpended. The bond terms require that all proceeds be committed before the end of Fiscal Year 2013 -14. 20A -1 Contract Change Order to Add Local Street Improvements to Contract with All American Asphalt, Inc. May 20, 2014 Page 2 Staff has identified the streets in Exhibit 1 as the next highest priority residential streets eligible for using these bond funds. The recommended streets were constructed with concrete pavement and have deteriorated due to weather, age, and heavy usage, In response to the time constraint, staff recommends modifying the current All American Asphalt, Inc., contract to maximize economies of scale and favorable unit prices received in the open bid process for the procurement of the Bristol Street Improvements and Widening Project. The City Council awarded a contract to All American Asphalt, Inc., the lowest bidder, on January 22, 2013. The prices are within the range the City has paid for similar residential street repair work of this magnitude in the past. Staff has determined that approving a change order to cover residential street repairs is the most efficient way to meet the requirements of the bond. This final phase of residential street repair will consume the remaining bond principal balance. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project is exempt from future review. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2014 -40 will be filed for the project. FISCAL IMPACT The appropriation adjustment will recognize and appropriate $176,271 in unrecognized interest earnings on bond proceeds in the Special Revenue Gas Tax Fund revenue account (02917002- 58004) and facilitate an interfund budgetary transfer expenditure (02917019 -68000 -058) to the Gas Tax Residential Street Improvement Fund revenue (05817002- 59000 -029) and expenditure (05817661- 66220) accounts. The Project Cost Analysis (Exhibit 2) has been revised for a total estimated construction contract of $7,786,182. APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: ;dwin "William" Galy , P.E.
