(Continued on Supplemental Sheet) City Manager Recommendation: Concur ~S AGENDA ITEM N0. 16 Sup lemental Sheet No. 1 Background (Cont.): prices bid by R. E. Hazard Contracting Company, the County's estimated share for construction costs is $100,823.96. In addition to the construction cost the County will also pay the City for its share of the total cost for engineering, contract management and relocation of utilities amounting to approximately $14,950. This brings the County's total cost of participation in accordance with the agreement to approximately $115,774. In the attached letter, the County Engineer has approved the bids and the award of the contract to the lowest responsible bidder, R. E. Hazard Contracting Company in the amount of $353,495.85• The terms of the agreement with the County requires that the County deposit with the City their share of the construction costs before the City awards the contract. Before the County can deposit their funds with the City, the County Engineer must submit to the Board of Supervisors for their approval, a request to transfer additional funds to meet their commitment in accordance with the agreement. The County Engineer, in his letter, is recommending to the Board of Supervisors that they approve this transfer of funds and that the County deposit these funds with the City Finance Officer as soon as the Board of Supervisors approves this action. Initially the Director of Public Works requested that the Board of Supervisors approve any transfer of funds to cover the cost of the County's share of the improvements at their board meeting of November 19, 1974 so that the City could award the contract on November 26, 1974. We have been informed by the County that the Board of Supervisors will not be meeting for several weeks and that they will not meet at the earliest until November 26, 1974. The City must award the contract on November 26, 1974 so that the contractor may begin work by the 16th of December as scheduled. The Director of Public Works is proposing that the City Council authorize the transfer of funds from other gas tax projects into Gas Tax Project No. 126 on a temporary basis until the County deposits their funds with the City Finance Officer. The City Council, on July 17, 1973, by Resolution No. 6948, approved an agreement between the City of Chula Vista and the County of San Diego for thoroughfare funds in the amount of $52,500. The thoroughfare funds will pay for a portion of the City's cost in constructing East "H" Street from Hilltop Drive to the I-805 Freeway. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the County will deposit with the City Finance Officer the sum of $52,500 after award of the contract and within 30 days after receipt of billing from the City. In accordance with both agreements, the County's total participation in the cost of constructing East "H" Street is estimated at $168,274. With the County's participation, the City's total estimated cost is $219,972. The final cost of the project cannot be determined until after the project is completed and accepted by the City Council. ---- .~J ..
