DESCRIPTION: In February of 1991, the City Council awarded Contract
90-10A, Pedestrian Signal Handicap Modification, to Richard Heaps,
Electrical Contractor.
This project installed or relocated stand-alone pushbuttons or provided for
the removal of curbs to provide handicap access to all the City's traffic
signal system pushbuttons.
The locations of these modifications are:
Amador Valley Blvd. at Stagecoach - northwest corner
Amador Valley Blvd. at Village Parkway - northwest, northeast,
and southeast corners
Amador Valley Blvd. at Amador Plaza - median nose
Amador Valley Blvd. at San Ramon Road - northwest, southwest,
and southeast corners, and median nose
San Ramon Road at Dublin Blvd. - northwest corner, median noses
Dublin Blvd. at Amador Plaza - median noses
Dublin Blvd. at Sierra Court - median noses
Village Parkway at Lewis - median noses
When the project was originally bid last October, the bids received were
considerably over budget, and the low bidder withdrew his bid. The City
Council rejected all bids and authorized Staff to rebid the project. An
item providing for construction of two concrete pads at Stagecoach Road and
Amador Valley Boulevard was deleted and subsequently installed through the
Annual Sidewalk Repair project. The increased cost in the actual amount for
Design and Inspection is a result of Staff time expended in rebidding.
A budget transfer in the amount of $347.50 is necessary to complete this
project. Staff recommends transferring this amount from the Contingent
Reserve.
The City Engineer 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, authorize
the budget transfer, and authorize payment to Richard Heaps, Electrical
Contractor in the amount of $18,592.00.
