08.m. Castillo Del Mar Bike PathMEMORANDUM TO: CITYCOUNCIL FROM: &d TERESA McCLISH, COMMLlNlTY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR BY: MIKE LINN, ASSISTANT CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF THE CASTILLO DEL MAR BIKE PATH, PW 201 1-05 DATE: JUNE 12,2012 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the City Council: 1. Accept the project improvements, as constructed by Brough Construction, Inc., in accordance with the plans and specifications for the Castillo Del Mar Bike Path Project; 2. Direct staff to file a Notice of Completion; and 3. Authorize release of the retention, thirty-five (35) days after the Notice of Completion has been recorded, if no liens have been filed. IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES: The Capital Improvement Budget includes $186,436 for the Castillo Del Mar Bike Path Project; funded with $150,000 from Transportation Enhancement (TE) grant funds (which require a $19,434 local match), $17,436 from Developer Contribution, and $19,000 from Sales Tax. The projected total construction cost for the project is $123,000 ($1 16,750 for Construction and Construction Contingencies, $1,000 for Testing and $5,000 for Contract Administration). The recommended action will not result in any impact on staff resources. BACKGROUND: On October 25, 201 1, Council awarded a construction contract to perform the Castillo Del Mar Bike Path Project to Brough Construction, Inc. for $1 10,378 and authorized the City Manager to approve change orders in the amount of $1 1,038. 'The project scope of work involved the construction of a Class I bicycle and pedestrian path within the right- of-way of Castillo Del Mar between Orchard Drive and Valley Road. The bike path follows an existing paved fire access that bisects the Arroyo Grande High School property. The approximately 800 foot long, 10 foot wide bike path is detached from the existing paved fire access road and located at the edge of the road right-of-way. The Agenda Item 8.m. Page 1 CITY COLlNClL CONSIDERATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF THE CASTILLO DEL MAR BIKE PATH PROJECT, PW 201 1-05 JUNE 12,2012 PAGE 2 Class I bike path crosses the fire access lane from the south side to the north side opposite the school's parking lot entrance. The Class I bike path continues another 200 feet on the campus side of the existing access road until it reaches the faculty parking lot, where it transitions to follow an existing pedestrian path through the parking lot as a Class II bike lane. Modification to the parking lot included the relocation of a light pole and restriping of a portion of the parking lot. ANALYSIS OF ISSUES: The contractor has completed the work in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. There are no outstanding issues. ALTERNATIVES: The following alternatives are provided for the Council's consideration: - Approve staffs recommendations accepting the project improvements; - Do not accept the project improvements; - Accept the project improvements, but do not authorize release of retention; or - Provide direction to staff. ADVANTAGES: The project is complete. Accepting the improvements will allow staff to close out the project and return any remaining funds to the fund balance. DISADVANTAGES: The disadvantage of accepting the improvements would be if subsequent deficiencies in the work are identified. However, the contract documents include a one-year warranty period for the contractor to address any construction defects that may arise. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15304(h). PUBLIC NOTIFICATION AND COMMENTS: The Agenda was posted in front of City Hall on Thursday, June 7, 2012. The Agenda and report were posted on the City's website on Friday, June 8, 2012.
