DESCRIPTION:
In September of 1989, the City Council awarded Contract 89-9, Dougherty Road
Street Lighting and Various Knockdown Replacements, to DJB Electric.
This contract is a portion of the Capital Improvement Project to underground
the utilities on Dougherty Road between the Southern Pacific Railroad
Right-of-Way and Amador Valley Boulevard. Since the wood power poles with
street lights were removed, the City needed to install metal poles along
this section of Dougherty Road in order to maintain the street lighting.
Rafanelli & Nahas
Steve DeBacker, PG&E
In addition to the Dougherty light poles, Contract 89-9 included replacement
of four City-owned poles in various locations which had been knocked down in
traffic accidents. During the course of construction, a fifth pole was
knocked down on Dougherty Road, and a change order was processed to add
replacement of this pole to the contract. The knockdown replacements are
funded in the Operating Budget by the Street Light Assessment District.
The substructures for undergrounding the utilities were installed by
Rafanelli and Nahas as part of that developer's offsite improvement
requirement for the Villages at Willow Creek Project. Pacific Gas and
Electric Company then pulled the wires through the conduit at a total cost
of $176,181.57, of which Rafanelli and Nahas paid $50,680.57.
Some of the sidewalk and curb and gutter along the west side of Dougherty
Road in front of Arroyo Vista had been badly damaged by various construction
projects. Rather than wait for the sidewalk safety project in the spring,
Staff elected to have Rafanelli and Nahas' contractor replace this sidewalk
and curb and gutter at a cost of $4,998. The unit prices for this work were
comparable to bid prices received in the past and the project was
facilitated since the contractor was already working in that area.
An additional item of work associated with this project is relocation of the
fence at the D.S.R.S.D. pump station near the Southern Pacific right-of-way.
This work was a commitment made to D.S.R.S.D. at the time that the District
dedicated right-of-way to the City along the frontage of the pump station.
The fence modification allows D.S.R.S.D. trucks to drive off the pavement
instead of blocking traffic when entering the pump station. This fence work
has not been completed; however, prices have been received from several
contractors, and the low bid is approximately $1,000.
The budget item related to striping and berm removal was accomplished by
Rafanelli and Nahas as part of their project at no cost to the City.
Staff has reviewed the work on the project and determined that it is
complete and in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
Staff recommends that the City Council accept the improvements and authorize
final payment and retention to D3B Electric in the amount of $3,259.90.
