in the amount of $15,598.13 to Med Tox, Inc. This amount together with the previous payments of
$140;383.12 represents 100% of the final contract amount.
FISCAL IMPACT
The final cost of construction for this project was $155,981.25, and no contract change orders were
required. Funding for this project was provided through the 1999-2000 FY Public Works
Department/Engineering Division Operating Budget (account #01-402-6235). This project is part of the
City's on-going Maintenance of Effort requirements for compliance with Measure "M".
BACKGROUND
This project consisted of the removal and replacement of concrete sidewalk, curb and gutter and drive
aprons to correct tripping hazards at approximately 175 locations throughout the City. Problem areas
where roots from parkway trees repeatedly damage and lift the adjacent sidewalk creating these
tripping hazards have been addressed by this year's project. Thirty-one parkway trees were removed
and replaced with tree species that have a less invasive root system.

This project also provided a means to address improvements throughout the City to comply with the
Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These locations were requested by citizens or were
identified by City staff to provide curb access ramps as well as completion of missing segments of
sidewalk to improve disabled/pedestrian access. ADA related improvements during this year's project
included six curb ramps at various locations, as well as construction of a missing segment of concrete
sidewalk along the westedy side of Myford Road between Michelle Drive and approximately 1100' north
of Walnut Avenue. This area previously had a limited stretch of sidewalk on Myford Road north of
Walnut Avenue, and construction of this missing segment has eliminated the need for pedestrians to
traverse this zone on the side of the road adjacent to vehicular travel lanes.
This work has been completed by Med Tox, Inc. to the satisfaction of the Engineering Division.
