CHULA VISTA CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: MARCH 27, 1973
ITEM TITLE: Resolution - Granting An Extension of Time for "J" Street
Storm Drain And Sewer Project
INITIATED BY
BACKGROUND
Director of Public Works/City Engineer
On February 13, 1973, the City Council granted a 23 day extension of
contract time to Hubbard Construction Company for the "J" Street Storm
Drain Project between East Park Lane and Church Avenue. This action
changed the completion date of the contract to March 23, 1973.
Since February 13, 1973, the project has been delayed 12 working days
due to inclement weather. Progress of the work has been slow because
of continuous "cave ins" caused by the sandy soil conditions of the
trench. Three water main breaks plus one 12" sewer main break has
further hampered progress of the project.
The Department of Public Works recommends an additional 25 working days
extension of time to complete the storm drain project. This extension
is justified due to the adverse working conditions encountered on the
project and inclement weather.
The 25 day extension, if granted, will extend the completion date of
the contract to April 27, 1973.
