COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 12/16/2003 -Ordinance No. 15805
DATE: 12/16/2003 REFERENCE NO.: **C-19903 LOG NAME: 30FOGG
CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: NO
SUBJECT: Appropriation Ordinance and Award of Contract to McClendon Construction Company, Inc. for
Reconstruction of Fogg Street, West of Berke Road to East Dead End, Contract 25, with
Associated Water and Sanitary Sewer Main Improvements
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the transfer of $379,763 from the Water & Sewer Fund to the Water Capital Project Fund in the
amount of$191,886 and Sewer Capital Project Fund in the amount of$187,877; and
2. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the Water
Capital Project Fund in the amount of$191,886 and the Sewer Capital Project Fund in the amount of
$187,877, from the available funds; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with McClendon Construction Company, Inc. in the
amount of$644,981 for the reconstruction of Fogg Street including water and sanitary sewer main
improvements.
DISCUSSION:
On December 19, 2000, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the issuance of$45,000,000 in
Certificates of Obligation to supplement the funding of capital projects in the 1998 Capital Improvement
Program. The Neighborhood Street Program was allocated $8,000,000 of these supplemental funds. Fogg
Street, from west of Berke Road to the east dead end, is one of the streets identified for reconstruction in the
1998 Capital Improvement Program. The Water Department has determined that the existing water and
sanitary sewer mains in the street should be replaced prior to street reconstruction.
Bids were received on two alternates:
Alternate "A" for 5-inch HMAC (hot mix asphalt concrete) over 6-inch subgrade with lime stabilization;
and
Alternate "B" for 6-inch concrete over 6-inch lime stabilized subgrade.
After review of all the bid proposals, staff recommends the award of Alternate "B" for street reconstruction,
as concrete will result in lower future street maintenance costs.
The proposed street improvements include 6-inch lime stabilized subgrade and 6-inch concrete pavement,
driveway approaches, and sidewalks along with water and sanitary sewer improvements.
This project was advertised for bid on July 31, and August 7, 2003. On August 28, 2003, the following bids
were received:
