DATE: September 13,1994
SUBJECT: VIA ONDA - II (PROJECT NO. 95-913) - ADVERTISE FOR BIDS
DEPARTMENT: Community Development
BACKGROUND
One of the areawide street repair projects following the January 17, 1994 earthquake was
performed under the "Off -System Roads - Valencia Area," Project No. 95-902 which included
the reconstruction of Via Onda. Via Onda, located west of Avenida Escalera, was extensively
damaged and required reconstruction. Due to the emergency nature of the project, the
project was awarded, although the street plans for Via Onda were still in final review.
However, the prime contractor was able to proceed with the repairs identified in the
specifications. The work on Project No. 95-902 is now completed including the street work
on Via Onda.
The second phase of Via Onda, which includes the repairs of damaged walkways,
landscaping, grading of lawns, replacement of brick steps and borders, replacement of
flagstone walks, irrigation systems, and driveways between the back of sidewalkto the
property line, all within the public road right-of-way, is ready for bid.
The work described above was not done because the prime contractor for Project No. 95-902
chose not to do this work since it was necessary to employ additional specialty sub-
contractors which were not anticipated and not included in his bid. The contractor would
perform the work under new negotiated prices. FEMA guidelines do not allow negotiated
prices and therefore, the need to advertise Phase II to complete the project.
Reimbursement of funds expended for this project are being requested from the Federal
Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), and Account No, 90-39-110-227 has been
established to track all costs associated with the project.
Specifications for this project have been completed and are available for review in the offices
of the City Clerk and the Director of Community Development.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the specifications for the project, and authorize the advertising for bids. Appropriate
$27,000 to Account No. 90-39-110-227 and Estimated Revenue Account No. 90-3597
