DESCRIPTION: At its meeting of February 14, 1994, the City Council
authorized Staff to advertise for bids for Contract 94-01, Village Parkway
Reconstruction/Overlay-
This year's Annual Overlay Program consists of reconstructing Village Parkway
between Kimball Avenue and Amador Valley Blvd., both northbound and southbound
lanes. In a normal overlay, failed areas are dug out and repaired and then pavement
reinforcing fabric and 1 1/2 inches of asphalt paving are placed over the entire
surface. Apparently, Alameda County performed at least two overlays on village
Parkway, which has resulted in a higher-than-usual crown. The street also needs
extensive repair due to numerous failed asphalt areas which have reflected up
through the previous overlays. Because of these existing conditions, the normal
overlay process cannot effectively be used. Raising the crown another 1 1/2 inches,
as in a normal overlay, would cause further drainage problems, and unrepaired deep
asphalt failures would continue to deteriorate the surface.
Therefore, Staff had prepared the specifications to include the reconstruction of
the road pavement by removing 4 inches of asphalt concrete from the curb edges and 6
to 9 inches from the center (crown) of the roadway. The entire surface will then be
repaved with reinforcing fabric and 4 inches of asphalt, thereby lowering the crown
of the roadways back to a constant cross slope to the outside gutters.
The project has been approved for grant funds from the State-Local Transportation
Partnership Program (SB300 gas tax). The bid package was set up for alternate bids
in order to allow flexibility should the bids come in over the budgets or should the
City Council desire to reduce the scope of work. The alternates are as follows:
1) Reconstruction of Village Parkway from Amador Valley
Blvd. to Kimball Avenue. Low Bid: $428,175
2) Reconstruction of Village Parkway from Amador Valley Blvd.
to Brighton Drive and from Davona Drive to Kimball; repair
Village Pkwy. from Brighton to Davona. Low Bid: $349,720
3) Reconstruction of Village Parkway from Amador Valley Blvd.
to Tamarack Drive and from Davona Drive to Kimball; repair
Village pkwy from Tamarack to Davona Low Bid: $286,162
The City received a total of fifteen bids (see attached summary) for this project.
Meridian Construction was low bidder for Alternate 1 and Alternate 3; Gallagher and
Burk was low bidder for Alternate 2.
Staff has reviewed the submittals of both low bidders, including Disadvantaged
Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements and references, and both bidders are
considered to be responsive.
Staff recommends Alternate fl over Alternates #2 and #3 for the following reasons:
1) Reconstructing Village Parkway all at one time will lessen the inconvenience
to the neighboring public, as the remaining section would need reconstruction
within a very few years.
2) Transitions from a new constant cross slope to an existing crowned section on
each side of the road will have to be installed for Alternates 2 and 3. These
transitions would have to be removed when doing the second phase of
reconstructing the road.
3) The City now has a fairly high matching SB 300 fund ratio (22.43%) for this
fiscal year. In future years, these funds may be much lower or nonexistent
depending on how the State may use the funds to reduce its deficit.
The drawback to Alternate #1 is that it will require an additional $63,791 of
General Fund monies in excess of those budgeted. If this drawdown in reserves
caused a problem in future years, the overlay pr6gram could be cut back in those
years to make up the difference.
