The low bid submitted by Dyno Construction, Inc. is below the
Engineer's estimate of $144,473 by $34,377.94 or 23.8 percent.
The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development has
reviewed the low bidder's eligibility to participate in a
federally financed block grant program and approves award of the
contract.
One of the major purposes of this project is to replace broken,
displaced and damaged sidewalks, curbs, and gutters in the
Feaster, Mueller, and Vista Square areas of the City. Most of
these sidewalks, curbs, and gutters require repair because street
trees have displaced them. The trees are a variety of species.
For the most part, Brazilian Pepper, California Pepper, and
Golden Rain.
At its meeting of November 18, 1980, the Street Tree Committee
made a tour of the area in question and examined t,he trees that
were recommended for removal and replacement as part of this
project. In addition, the Council, at its meeting on January 1,
1981, accepted a recommendation by the Development Services
Administrator to allow the removal of three Indian Laurel Fig
trees at 660 "L" Street as part of this project.
All the trees that are removed as a resul t of this proj ect
be replaced with the appropriate designated street tree.
forces will be removing and replacing the trees.

Included in the project was the construction of improvements
between Casselman and "D" Street on the west side of Fifth
Avenue. These improvements included curb and gutter, sidewalk
ramps, cross gutter and pavement reconstruction. However, the
improvements did not include the construction of the sidewalk on
the west side of Fifth Avenue. It is my recommendation that this
sidewalk be included in this project. The sidewalk is adjacent
to the side yard of two fully developed lots. It is unlikely
that the City will be able to require this improvement in the
future through the permit process. Contract quantities can be
increased to include this construction. This is the only segment
along Fi fth Avenue all the way from "CO Street to "F" Street
which is missing sidewalk on the west side of the street.
