SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The Department of Resource Management has completed construction on two projects using bid contract work. The Asphalt Rubber Cape Seal 2019 contract was awarded to VSS International, Inc. on May 02, 2019 and executed on May 16, 2019. Work consisted of placing asphalt rubber chip seal with microsurface cape seal at the following locations: North Green Valley Estates, Ameral Court, Cravea Avenue, Oak & Spring Lanes, Rockville Road, Willotta Oaks, Suisun Valley Road, Gordon Valley Road, Pedrick Road, Pitt School Road, Bunker Hill Station Road, Elmira Road, Dixon Avenue, Meridian Road North, Peaceful Glen Road, South A Street, and Wolfskill Road. The work also included traffic control, flagging, crack sealing, thermoplastic striping, pavement markings, and retro-reflective markers. All work has been completed on the project in accordance with the project plans and specifications. Approval of the Notice of Completion (attachment A) allows the Department of Resource Management to close the contract with VSS International, Inc. for a final project cost of $2,222,782.
The HSIP 8 Guardrail Project was awarded to Dirt & Aggregate Interchange, Inc. on September 13, 2019 and executed on October 1, 2019. Work consisted of new guardrail installations at various locations on Clayton Road, Dixon Avenue West, Hartley Road, Lopes Road, Rockville Road, Sievers Road and Suisun Valley Road. All work on the project has been completed in compliance with the contract plans and specifications. Approval of the Notice of Completion (attachment B) allows the Department of Resource Management to close the contract with Dirt & Aggregate Interchange, Inc. for a final project cost of $146,600.
FINANCING:
The Asphalt Rubber Cape Seal 2019 project was funded with CalRecycle grant funds and the Road Fund. The HSIP Guardrail Project was funded with federal Highway Safety Improvement Project funds and the Road Fund.
The costs associated with preparing the agenda item are nominal and absorbed by the department’s FY2019/20 Adopted Budget.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Board could choose to not approve the Notices of Completion for the two projects. This is not recommended, since it would delay the final contract close out with the contractors while all construction work has been completed.
