The low total bid amount is 19% below the Engineer's Estimate of $120,000. The low

This project provides for constructing the following items of work on a hillside within the
City's Harbor View Nature Park (see attached Vicinity Map):

2. Installing three rows of 'pipe and board' stabilizing wall within the area, complete
with subdrains and a downdrain.
3. Covering the entire installation with compacted soil.
This work is needed to restore a surficial slope failure that occurred about the time of
the 1996 -97 El Nino storms. The work will necessitate:
1. Shutting off irrigation in the park so that the subgrade soil will dry up and providg.
adequate support for the contractor's work vehicles.
2. Closing the portion of the park adjoining the work site for the duration of work.
3. Using manual labor to complete the work upon a very difficult site.
The contract requires that all work be completed within 20 consecutive working days,
such that all work may be finished before the end of November. Normal working hours
are 7:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.
Plans, specifications and estimate (PS &E) were prepared by Zeiser -Kling Consultants
(geotechnical); Dewan, Lundin & Associates (topographic surveying and mapping); and
by Public Works Department. Upon completion of the contract work, General Services
Department will re- establish the irrigation system, re -plant the slope, and install a
surface matting to protect the slope until the re- planting is established.
Environmental Review:
This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to
Section 15301, Class 1 of the CEQA Implementing Guidelines. This exemption covers the
