DISCUSSION:
On June 27, 2000, the City Council authorized the award of the Newport Heights Street
Improvements contract to Nobest, Inc., of Westminster, California.
The contract provided for rehabilitation of existing asphalt concrete pavement by
constructing an asphalt concrete overlay, and in some areas, complete removal and
replacement of the roadway. In addition, curb and gutter, driveway approaches, and
concrete street replacement were constructed. The improved Newport Heights streets
were Santa Ana Avenue, Catalina Drive, Holmwood Drive, and Beacon Street.
The contract has now been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works
Department. A summary of the contract cost is as follows:
Original bid amount: $449,955.00
Actual amount of bid items constructed: 490,374.22
Total amount of change orders: 29,584.34
Final contract cost: $519.958.56
The increase in the amount of actual bid items constructed over the original bid amount
resulted from the need for over - excavation of unacceptable subgrade materials and for
additional areas of asphalt paving. The final overall construction cost including change
orders was 15.6 percent over the original bid amount.
