$672,552.90
*Corrected Bid Amount
The low total bid amount is one percent below the Engineer's Estimate of $513,196.00.
The difference in the Engineer's Estimate and the low total bid is due to a decrease in
the cost of construction over the last few years. The low bidder, Select Electric, Inc.
possesses a California State Contractors License Classification C -10 as required by the
project specifications. A check of the contractor's references indicates they have
satisfactorily completed similar projects for other municipalities.
Construction of Phase 5 (Newport Center) of the Traffic Signal Modernization Project
includes installation of Ethernet communication equipment, 3 CCTV cameras, and new
traffic signal control equipment at 10 existing signalized intersections within the Newport
Center area. The attached exhibit shows the Phase 5 project corridors as well as the
project corridors for the completed phases (1, 2, 3, 4 and 7), and planned phases.

In addition to modernization of existing traffic signals within the Newport Center area,
new traffic signals will be installed at the Newport Center Drive /Center Drive and
Newport Center Drive /Anacapa Drive intersections.
Staff has also identified the Jamboree Road /San Joaquin Hills Road and Newport
Center Drive /San Miguel intersections to be rehabilitated. Rehabilitation includes
equipment that is outside the scope of the Modernization Project, but is essential to the
operation of the traffic signals.
The Phase 5 field equipment will connect to the City's Ethernet system through existing
equipment installed at the Central Library. Additionally, the system has been designed
to integrate into the existing Traffic Management Center completed through the first
phase of the Modernization Project.
Pursuant to the Contract Specifications, the contractor will have 120 consecutive
working days to complete the work.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this project exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") pursuant to Section 15301 (for repair, maintenance
and minor alteration of existing public facilities with negligible expansion) of the CEQA
Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential to have a significant effect on the environment.
NOTICING:
The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of
