BACKGROUND
On December 14, 2010, the City Council awarded a contract to R.C. Becker & Son, Inc., in an
amount not to exceed $911,117, for the Creekside Road and Pedestrian Improvements project.
Construction commenced on April 3, 2011. The work included three pedestrian crossings with
bulb -outs along Creekside Road between Auto Center Drive and Valencia Boulevard. The
bulb -outs include amenities such as pavers along the sidewalk area, planting and irrigation,
garden/seat walls with stone veneer, trash receptacles, and wayfinding and pedestrian signage.
The existing striped median along Creekside Road was treated with stamped and colored asphalt
from approximately 900 feet east of McBean Parkway to Valencia Boulevard.
The work also included gateway and directional signs, signage and striping, and improvements at
the intersection of Creekside Road and Auto Center Drive, which consist of sidewalk pavers,
landscaping, bollards, and stone veneer seating walls at each corner. The construction contract
was completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer on April 15, 2011. A dedication event was
held on April 26, 2011.
The stamped and colored median treatment was extended easterly to include Creekside Road east
of Valencia Boulevard to include the frontage of Galpin and Power Honda. This work was added
to the project to tie together auto dealers on either side of Valencia Boulevard at the auto dealers'
request. The work included necessary pavement rehabilitation and striping. Adequate funding is
appropriated in the project's budget; however, an increase in contract authority is necessary to
cover the increased scope of work.
The maintenance of Creekside Road will be managed by the Landscape Maintenance District.
The maintenance includes water costs as well as weekly site visits, fertilizing, trimming,
weeding, trash removal, plant replacement, and/or other maintenance duties as needed to
maintain an attractive environment. Funds are available in the project account for the
maintenance costs associated with the completed improvements.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
Adequate Landscape Maintenance District funds were budgeted in expenditure Account
B1010357-5161.001. The budget for this project adequately provided for all project costs,
including construction management, inspection, surveying, material testing, administration, and
increased scope of work. The final contract cost for R.C. Becker & Son, Inc., is $946,658, which
includes the $35,541 increase for the project expansion.
