Webb, Public Works Director - 949-644-3311, dawebb@newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Andy Tran, Senior Civil Engineer, atran@newportbeachca.gov PHONE: 949-644-3315 TITLE: Concrete Replacement Program — Award of Contract No. 8921-1 (23R06) ABSTRACT: The City of Newport Beach (City) has received construction bids for the FY 2022-23 Concrete Replacement Program project and requests City Council approval to award the construction contract to Towo Enterprise, Inc. of Fullerton, California. This project will replace deteriorated concrete sidewalks, driveways, curbs and gutters, and access ramps in the Irvine Terrace, Corona del Mar, and Shorecliffs neighborhoods. RECOMMENDATIONS: a) Find this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(c), Class 1 (maintenance of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use) of the CEQA Guidelines, because this project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment; b) Approve a Reimbursement Agreement with Newport -Mesa Unified School District for concrete improvements adjacent to Corona del Mar High School and Ensign Intermediate School; c) Approve Budget Amendment No. 23-049 appropriating $102,850 in new revenue and expenditures from Newport Mesa Unified School District to 13501-980000-23R06; d) Approve the project plans and specifications; e) Award Contract No 8921-1 to Towo Enterprise, Inc. for the bid price of $1,096,200 for the FY 2022-23 Concrete Replacement Program, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the contract; and f) Establish a contingency of $110,000 (approximately 10 percent of total bid) to cover the cost of unforeseen work not included in the original contract. 8-1 Concrete Replacement Program — Award of Contract No. 8921-1 (23R06) February 14, 2023 Page 2 DISCUSSION: This construction contract was previously advertised in September 2022. Upon review of the bid results, the apparent low bid appeared to be unbalanced. On November 29, 2022, the City Council rejected all bids and directed staff to re -advertise the contract. The bid package was reviewed and released for new bids. At 10 a.m. on January 10, 2023, the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for this project: BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT Low Towo Enterprise, Inc. $ 1,096,200.00 2nd Stance Construction Company $ 1,114,421.30 3rd Gri olla & Sons Construction Company $ 1,142,000.00 4th NR Development, Inc. $ 1,150,500.00 5th S&H Civilworks $ 1,187,500.00 6th Vido Samarzich, Inc. $ 1,193,725.00 7th Addison -Miller, Inc. $ 1,210,750.00 8th Diamond Construction $ 1,298,925.00 9th CT&T Concrete Paving, Inc. $ 1,361,055.00 10th Armstrong Cal Builders, Inc. $ 1,397,605.00 11 th PUB Construction, Inc. $ 1,421,295.00 12th Onyx Paving Company, Inc. $ 1,587,000.00 13th Beador Construction Company, Inc. $ 1,987,700.00 The City received 13 bids for this project. The low bidder, Towo Enterprise, Inc., possesses a California State Contractor's License Classification "A" General Engineering, as required by the project specifications. A review of references for Towo Enterprise, Inc. shows satisfactory completion of similar contracts for other municipalities. The low bid was 12.3 percent below the Engineer's Estimate of $1,250,000 and $45,301 less than the rejected low bid last fall. The difference between the low bid and the Engineer's Estimate reflects a very competitive bidding climate for surface concrete work. The high number of bids received also indicates a competitive bidding climate. The Engineer's Estimate was prepared based on recent (last six months) unit prices and reflects the recent inflation that the City has seen over the past year. The City's annual Concrete Replacement Program involves replacing deteriorated concrete sidewalks, driveways, curbs and gutters, and access ramps. This program precedes the annual slurry seal program, which is scheduled to start in spring. This year's project focuses on concrete improvements in the Irvine Terrace, Corona del Mar, and Shorecliffs neighborhoods. Staff also recommends the approval of a Reimbursement Agreement with Newport -Mesa Unified School District (District) to complete parkway improvements adjacent to Corona del Mar High School and Ensign Intermediate School. The District is responsible for maintaining the parkways in front of these two schools. Proposed improvements involve widening the sidewalks within the parkways. The Reimbursement Agreement identifies cost sharing for these parkway improvements. 8-2 Concrete Replacement Program — Award of Contract No. 8921-1 (23R06) February 14, 2023 Page 3 Pursuant to the contract specifications, the contractor will have 60 consecutive working days to complete the work. Work is scheduled to start in the middle of March. The project plans and specifications will be available for review at the February 14, 2023 City Council meeting or upon request. FISCAL IMPACT: As approved, the proposed budget amendment and current adopted Capital Improvement Budget provide sufficient funding for the award of this contract. The Concrete Replacement Program has $1,262,560 available through the General Fund, the Contribution Fund, and the Neighborhood Enhancement Fund (536). The Neighborhood Enhancement Fund is used for projects that enhance neighborhood aesthetics and functionality and is funded via surplus general funds. The following funds will be expended: Account Description General Fund Neighborhood Enhancement Contribution — Newport Mesa School District Proposed funds uses are as follows: \/Pnrinr Towo Enterprise, Inc.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(c), Class 1 (maintenance of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because this project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

ATTACHMENT C REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN NEWPORT-MESA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH FOR SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS THIS REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of this 14th day of February, 2023 ("Effective Date"), by and between the CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, a California municipal corporation and charter city ("City"), and NEWPORT-MESA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, a political subdivision of the State of California ("District"), and is made with reference to the following: RECITALS A. City is a municipal corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of California with the power to carry on its business as it is now being conducted under the statutes of the State of California and the Charter of the City. B. As part of the City's Capital Improvement Program ("CIP"), the City is administering the annual Concrete Replacement Program for Fiscal Year 2022-23. City intends to construct improvements on sidewalks, driveways, curbs and gutters at various locations in the Irvine Terrace and Corona del Mar Village communities ("Project"). C. The District is responsible for maintaining the parkways in front of the Corona Del Mar High School and Ensign Intermediate School ("Schools"), both of which are within the District, and desires the City, as part of the Project, remove the parkways and widen the existing sidewalks in front of the Schools as depicted on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein ("Improvements"). D. The parties have determined that it would be more expedient and cost effective for City to construct the Improvements as part of the Project than it would be for District to do so independently. E. District is amenable to the City constructing the Improvements with the City agreeing to advance the costs. F. District agrees to fully reimburse the City for the actual costs of the Improvements through a lump sum billed by the City and approved by District for the entire cost of the Improvements. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENTS In conjunction with the Project, City agrees to initiate and pursue to completion the design and construction of the Improvements. No 2. PLANS City agrees that the Improvements shall be completed pursuant to approved project plans and specifications (the "Plans and Specifications") which shall be approved by District and used in awarding the construction contract. 3. BIDDING AND AWARD The parties agree that the construction of the Improvements shall be included in City's contract awarded for the Project and that the Improvements shall be bid as a separate item or items that can be deleted. The total estimated construction cost of the Improvements is One Hundred Two Thousand Eight Hundred Fifty Dollars and 00/100 ($102,850.00), provided however, the amount to be reimbursed by District shall be based on the actual costs, not to exceed such amount without the prior written approval of the District which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Upon award of the construction contract, City shall provide District with one (1) original copy of the fully executed contract documents and one (1) copy of the bid package relating to the Improvements received from the successful bidder. 4. CHANGE ORDERS District shall promptly review proposed change order(s) and provide City with a response within five (5) working days or sooner of receiving proposed change order(s) information from City. District agrees not to unreasonably cause delay(s) to the construction schedule of the Project in reviewing proposed change order(s) for the Improvements. 5. REIMBURSEMENT District agrees to reimburse City for the following costs (collectively, the "Cost"): (a) the actual costs of design, construction, permits, bonds, and legal fees (excluding the costs of preparation for this Agreement) reasonably incurred by City in connection with the design and construction of the Improvements with reasonable prior notice to District, plus (b) an administration fee which shall be equal to four percent (4%) of the actual cost of construction (costs paid directly to City's contractor for construction, only, excluding any cost for design, surveying, geotechnical or other work) of the Improvements and which shall be deemed to cover all costs of project administration, including, but not limited to, accounting, inspection, surveying, compaction testing, geotechnical services and engineering. City shall keep a separate accounting of all costs incurred by City in relation to the Improvements. Within sixty (60) days of District's acceptance of the Improvements as provided in Section 8, a final accounting of the Costs shall be made by City and submitted to District along with an invoice for the costs and any supporting documentation necessary to show the amounts which represent costs of Improvements.

INSPECTION District shall be entitled, but not required, to inspect the construction of Improvements as it deems necessary to assure compliance with the Plans and Specifications, including shop drawing review and material inspection thereof. District shall have access to all phases of the Project work to be performed by City for the purpose of such inspection; provided, however, all questions regarding the work being performed will be directed to City's resident engineer or its qualified designee. District will promptly notify City of any portion of the work on the Improvements which appears not to conform to the Plans and Specifications. The determination of District as to conformity of the Improvements with the Plans and Specifications shall be made in District's sole and absolute discretion. District agrees not to unreasonably withhold its approval as to such conformity of the Improvements with the Plans and Specifications. City shall require its contractor to construct the Improvements so that the Improvements conform to the Plans and Specifications. City agrees to assume full responsibility for certifying or obtaining certification of the compaction of backfill material over the Improvements. 8.
