TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council through City Manager
FROM: Dan.ESt. F. � E — Director, Public Works & Utilities

SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Award of Contract for the Deer Creek Improvements to
Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc., Revising the Project Budget, and
Authorizing the Transfer of Funds
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Resolution Authorizing the Award of
Contract for the Deer Creek Improvement Project to Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc.,
Revising the Project Budget, and Authorizing the Transfer of Funds.
BACKGROUND
In 2012, the Petaluma Neighborhood Association (PNA) filed an appeal to the City Council with
respect to the approvals for the Friedman's- anchored Deer Creek Village Shopping Center. PNA
raised concerns that the developer did not adequately address the traffic impacts and pedestrian
safety around the development. The PNA withdrew its appeal in exchange for additional traffic
mitigations and charitable contributions to organizations that serve the Petaluma Community.
Mitigation measures that were suggested included pedestrian improvements to make the project
more accessible to their community.
The mitigations consist of traffic calming measures that include the construction of three new
curb ramps and the installation of a marked crosswalk with rectangular rapid flashing beacons on
Professional Drive at Rushmore Avenue, the installation of two radar feedback signs on Rainier
Avenue and installing new crosswalk markings at Rainier Avenue at Maria Drive with
continental style crosswalks.
The traffic calming measures were discussed with a representative of the Petaluma
Neighborhood Association to ensure the project was consistent with the intent of the terns of the
settlement agreement. The project plans were reviewed and approved by the Association.
The proposed action meets Council Goal: "Plan for and implement priority capital projects as
funding permits."
DISCUSSION
The construction plans and specifications were prepared by engineering staff and a Notice
Inviting Bids was advertised on April 6, 2017. One (1) bid was received as follows:
Name of Bidder
Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc
Engineers Estimate
Bid Total
$79,785.50 Lowest Responsible Bidder
$64,000
The lowest responsible and responsive bidder, Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc. has
performed similar projects throughout the Bay Area and possesses a valid Class A California
Contractor's License, #995338, which qualifies Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc. to
perform the work. It is recommended that Council adopt the resolution awarding the contract to
Coastside Concrete and Construction Inc., the lowest and responsive bidder, in the amount of
$79,785.50. This bid is within the project budget and while it is higher than the engineer's
estimate, it is believed to be a better reflection of the level of effort needed to complete the
project. Council may also choose not to approve the project bid, and rebid with the hope of
receiving a lower bid. This option will delay construction until later in 2017, and is not expected
to reduce the cost of the work.
Due to the poor pavement condition at Rainier Avenue and Maria Drive, additional asphalt work
is necessary to provide a smooth surface for pedestrians and for the thermoplastic pavement
markings to adhere. If the thermoplastic markings are installed on asphalt that has severe
cracking and signs of failure, it is likely that the markings will start to peel off within the first
year and become an annual maintenance item. This asphalt work was not anticipated in the
original scope of work. An additional $15,000 project from the street maintenance fund is needed
to repave the crosswalk area to reduce the annual striping and pothole maintenance cost at this
intersection.
Construction is scheduled to begin in July 2017 and to be completed by August 2017.
Construction management and inspection services will be conducted by City staff with assistance
by an outside consultant for material testing.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
The total FY 16/17 CIP project budget for the Deer Creek Improvement Project (C16101303) is
$80,000. An additional $15,000 in Street Maintenance 2411 Funds is proposed to increase the
total project budget to $95,000. These funds are budgeted for pavement maintenance and
currently exist in the budget.
