SUBJECT: CITYWIDE SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT AND ACCESS RAMP
INSTALLATION — (PROJECT NO: PWS -4) -PROJECT ACCEPTANCE
DEPARTMENT: Transportation and Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council accept the work performed by C.A. Rasmussen, Inc. on the repair work completed
on damaged sidewalks, curb, gutter, driveway approaches, and pedestrian access ramps.
Approve a budget transfer in the amount of $21,368.58 from Account No: 5211-8061 to Account
No.S0010201-8001 to cover the cost of additional improvements performed. Direct the City
Clerk to file the attached Notice of Completion. Direct staff to release the 10% retention 35
days after the Notice of Completion is recorded, provided no stop notices, as provided by law,
have been filed.
On June 24, 1997, Council awarded a contract for the subject project to C.A. Rasmussen, Inc.
This project implemented.two of the City's annual sidewalk and access ramp programs. The
first program repaired damaged sidewalks, curb, gutter, driveway approaches, and pedestrian
access ramps that were damaged due to street tree root lifting and other causes. The contract
replaced damaged public improvements, which had either been reported by residents or
identified by City staff. The second program installed new pedestrian access ramps throughout
the City.
Priority for the new installations was given to existing transit routes and routes heavily used
by children going to and from school. The proposed repairs and new access ramp installations
were located throughout the City. During construction, additional repair needs were identified
in areas adjacent to the contractor's work and were repaired at the same time. The additional
work could have been postponed to the next fiscal year; however, it was deemed more beneficial
to perform the work at this time.
After three months of discussions, staff and C.A. Rasmussen, Inc. avoided a costly claim by
negotiating quantities and prices for additional work discovered during construction. All work
was completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer on July 20, 1998. This project was
completed on schedule and within the adjusted budget.
