At 2 p.m. on March 16, 1988, in Conference Room 5 in the Public Services
Building, the Director of Public Works received sealed bids for "Construction
of William Avenue Improvements Between Palomar Street and Orange Avenue in the
City of Chula Vista, California." The project involves removal and disposal
of existing improvements, excavation and grading, asphalt concrete paving,
adjustment of manhole, cross gutter, protection and restoration of existing
improvements, traffic control, construction surveying and other miscellaneous
work shown on the plans. The funds for this project were budgeted in the
1986-87 Capital Improvement Program.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council:
• 1. Appropriate $24,512.82 from the unappropriated reserves of Gas Tax funds
to William Avenue-Street Improvement account.
2. Accept bids and award contract to Carolyn E. Scheidel-Contractor, La Mesa,
in the amount of $71,339.00.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
Bids for this project were received from eight contractors as follows:
Bidder Bid Amount
1. Carolyn E. Scheidel-Contractor - La Mesa $ 71,339.00
2. ABC Construction Co., Inc. - San Diego 73,487.70
3. RLF, Inc. - E1 Cajon 73,783.00

7. L. R. Hubbard Construction Co., Inc. - San Diego 79,309.16
8. Frank and Son Paving Co. - Chula Vista 92,228.90
The budgeted project in FY 1986-87 included approximately $47,000 for
construction of the improvements. The major difference between the original
estimate and the bid received was in the cost for excavation and grading
• ($1,350 original estimate and $14,000 bid). Also the final project included
additional bid items not included in the original estimate, i.e., P.C.C.
cross-gutter, protection and restoration of property, traffic control and
construction surveying. These items added an additional $16,000 to the final
project cost.
