BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
The City-Wide Streets Program was approved as part Proposition 1 in the 2019 Bond Program. Projects in this program could include mill & overlay of pavement, curb repair/replacement, sidewalks, and concrete diamonds around meter boxes and manholes.
The Lakeview Blvd Improvements Project was designed by HMT Engineering. The project includes spot base repairs, milling and overlay of pavement, and the installation of sidewalks on the southeast side of the street. In September a solicitation for competitive proposals was issued, and five proposals were received on September 24, 2020. The proposals were evaluated and Dean Word Company, Ltd. was determined to provide the best value to the City. Dean Word Company, Ltd submitted a proposal in the amount of $1,737,407. With the addition of a fifteen percent contingency the total amount for improvements is $1,998,018.
The agreement with HMT will be amended to include bidding phase services, construction administration, and as-built-drawings in support of the Lakeview Blvd. Improvements Project. This addendum totals $16,400, increasing the total contract amount from $139,500 to $155,900.
