SUBJECT: ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 75 (BALBOA BUSINESS DISTRICT)
AUTHORIZE PAYMENT FOR ADDITIONAL PAVING
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize payment in the amount of $36,000 to Arizona Pipeline Company, from the
Assessment District No. 75 Construction Contingency Account, Account No. 74075-
9805, for unexpected concrete paving.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
Prior to Underground Utility Assessment District No. 75 construction (see Exhibit 'A' for
district boundaries), requirements were provided to Southern California Edison, AT &T
(known as SBC at time of construction), and Adelphia to repave the utility trenches. At
the time of paving requirement preparation, staff was advised that Balboa Village
Project Phase III would provide final concrete street repaving on East Bay Avenue from
Main Street to Adams Street after the underground utility construction was complete.
Staff, accordingly, directed the utility companies to only repave the utility trenches within
the limits of the Balboa Village Project with trench -width asphalt.
Due to funding considerations, the scope of the Balboa Village Project Phase III has
been reduced and the originally planned concrete repaving of East Bay Avenue from
Palm Street to Adams Street will not be constructed. Consequently, the scope of work
for AD -75 needed to be changed from asphalt trench repairs to concrete paving to
match the pre- construction pavement conditions. The additional 2,400 square feet of
asphalt - placed pavement removal and concrete pavement replacement resulted in
unexpected construction costs. Southern California Edison's underground contractor,
Arizona Pipeline Company, will do the additional work at the unit prices bid in the
Southern California Edison Assessment District 75 contract for the total amount of
$36,000.
