On May 3, 2021, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Hardy & Harper, Inc., of Lake Forest, California, in the amount of $593,000, for the construction of the Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation and Slurry Seal Project FY 2020-2021, Project No. 4-R-20 (Project).  The Project included street improvements, such as cold-milling and overlaying various streets with new asphalt concrete pavement and slurry seal, as well as reconstruction of PCC curb and gutters, cross gutters, spandrels, curb ramps, sidewalks, and driveways, utility adjustments, the restoration of traffic loops, and striping of traffic pavement markings.
 

All improvements have now been completed.  Staff conducted a final inspection and found that the work was completed satisfactorily and in accordance with the Project plans and contract documents. Upon acceptance by the City Council, staff will file the Notice at the County Recorder’s Office for recordation as noted in Attachment 1.  Before and after photos for the Project are included as Attachment 2.

The total construction cost for the project was $545,006.04, which is 8.1 percent, or $47,993.96, under the approved construction contract.  The savings were a result of quantity adjustments made to the Project after field verification.  There are sufficient budgeted funds to cover the construction cost and the savings from this project will be available for future capital construction appropriation.
