TITLE: Street Pavement Repair Program Fiscal Year 2024-25 — Award of
Contract No. 9716-1 (25R03)
The City of Newport Beach received construction bids for the Street Pavement Repair
Program Fiscal Year 2024-25 project. Staff requests City Council approval to award the
construction contract to Hardy & Harper, Inc. of Lake Forest. This project removes and
replaces areas of deteriorated asphalt pavement in the Spyglass Hill, Newport Hills,
Harbor View and Seawind communities.
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 the project plans and specifications;
c) Award Contract No. 9716-1 to Hardy & Harper, Inc. for the total bid price of $1,425,000
for the Street Pavement Repair Program FY 2024-25 project, and authorize the Mayor
and City Clerk to execute the contract; and
d) Establish a contingency of $143,000 (approximately 10% of total bid) to cover the cost
of unforeseen work not included in the original contract.
DISCUSSION:
The Street Pavement Repair Program FY 2024-25 project includes reconstructing
isolated portions of deteriorated asphalt concrete pavement, lowering and raising
manhole frames, replacing utility boxes and lids, replacing and resetting survey
monument boxes, and installing new traffic striping. These improvements are needed to
prepare for the upcoming annual slurry seal program, which will be in the same
communities.
