IT M TITLE: Resolution ~~~`3 Accepting Bids and Awarding Contract for
Construction of Street Improvements at Woodlawn Avenue and
"H" Street in the City of Chula Vista, California
SU MITTED BY: City Engineer ~~ ~ (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
At 2:00 p.m. on May 26 in Conference Room 3 of the Public Services Building
th City Engineer received sealed bids for construction of street improvements
at Woodlawn Avenue and "H" Street in the City of Chula Vista California.
Th scope of the project includes the construction of curbs, gutters,
si ewalk, drainage inlet, storm drain lateral, traffic signal inductive loops,
as halt concrete paving and manhole adjustments. It is my
RE OMMENDATION: That Council:
1. Authorize the expenditure of $31,350 from Chula Vista Transit Center Funds
account #402-4021-5563;
2. Accept bids and award contract to R. E. Hazard Contracting Co., San Diego
in the amount of $28,497.00.
B DS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Funds for this project are in SCOOT
a count 402-4021-5563 (Chula Vista Transit Center). At its meeting on
Aril 14, 1982, the SCOOT Board authorized the City to accept bids, award the
c ntract, and administer this project.
D SCUSSION:
B ds were received from four contractors as follows:
1 R. E. Hazard Contracting Co. - San Diego $28,497.00
2 Daley Corporation - San Diego 35,755.00
3 Asphalt Inc. - El Cajon 37,333.00
4 H. L. Foster Construction Co. - San Diego 39,572.76
T e low bid by R. E. Hazard Contracting Company is below the Engineer's
e timate of $40,560 by $12,063 or 30%. We have reviewed the bid and find it
t be acceptable.
T e need for these improvements was brought about by two factors:
1 A hazardous bump exists between the cross-gutter and the pavement on
"H" Street. The bump causes buses to nearly bottom-out as they travel
over it.

2.
The extra-heavy traffic load of the buses has caused serious deterioration
in the pavement on Woodlawn Avenue. Based on our recommendations the City
Council at its meeting of March 9, 1982 authorized the advertising for
bids for this project.
FI CAL IMPACT: Adequate funds are available for construction of this
pr ject in the Chula Vista Transit Center funds account #402-4021-5563.
SU MARY:
Contract amount $28,497
Contingencies (approximately 10%) 2,853
Total funds required to construct project $31,350
Funds available in account #402-4021-5563 59,863.12
Si ce this project is an integral part of the Transit Center, we approached
th County staff to determine whether we could use the remaining funds in the
Ch la Vista Transit Center Project to make the improvements. County staff
to d us that this was a logical part of the project and they would approve
re mbursing the City for its cost. In affect, we are using the County's
a~ ortionment of TDA funds for this project.
Th TDA funds are audited at a later date. There is a possibility that an
au itor may question the use of the transit funds to improve the
in ersection. If that occurs and the costs are later disallowed we would then
re'mburse the County with Gas Tax funds. However, we do believe there is
ju tification to complete this project using remaining Transit Center Project
fu ds. In fact, had we anticipated the problems at the intersection we would
ha a included it in the original Transit Center Project.
