SUBJECT AND ISSUE
Authorize an additional amount of construction contingency for the contract for the
Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters, and Sidewalks, Project No. 2006-03, in the amount of
$25,000.00 to incorporate additional funds in the amount of $10,000 from an Association of Bay
Area Governments (ABAG) block grant, and to cover the additional work required to complete
the project, to bring the total project amount including contingency to $510,000.00.
BACKGROUND
On October 17, 2006, the City awarded the 2006 Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters, and
Sidewalks, Project No. 2006-03, to JJR Construction, in the amount of $412,125.00, and
approved a construction contingency of $72,875.00, for a total of $485,000.00. Two previous
change orders to incorporate additional work have been approved that have nearly exhausted the
existing contingency.
In order to incorporate additional funds for sidewalk repair in the form of an Association of Bay
Area Governments (ABAG) block grant, as well as to undertake the installation of additional
wheelchair ramps required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), an additional
contingency amount of $25,000.00 would need to be authorized. If approved by the Council, a
final Contract Change Order would be approved by the Director of Public Works to finish and
close out the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
The project was budgeted in the 2006-2007 Capital Improvement Program in the amount of
$500.000.00 of which $485,000, as noted above, had been previously authorized by the Council.
This action would appropriate the remaining $15,000 from the approved repair of curbs, gutters,
and sidewalks budget account no. 270-9451-9300 and incorporate funding from the ABAG block
grant in the amount of$10,000.00 for a total amount of$ 25,000.00.
