UATE: SEPTEMBER 11, 1991
TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ENGINEERING DIVISION
SUBJECT: TUSTIN RANCH ROAD AT SANTA ANA (I-5) FREEWAY INTERCHANGE
(P.W. FILE NO. 897H)
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the Tustin City Council adopt Resolution No. 91-123 accepting
works of improvement on the Tustin Ranch Road at Santa Ana (I-5)
Freeway Interchange and authorizing the recordation of Notice of
Completion for said work.
Assuming no claims or stop payment notices are filed, it is further
recommended that 35 days after the date of recordation of the
Notice of Completion, that staff be authorized to release the
retention monies in the amount of $486,595.89 that are being held
in an escrow account at Bank of America.
BACKGROUND:
In April, 1989, the City Council awarded a contract to Steve P.
Rados, Inc. in the amount of $10,041,836.40. This project
consisted of the following improvements for the Tustin Ranch Road/
I-5 Interchange:
* Overcrossing of the I-5 Freeway
* Northbound I-5 off -ramp to Tustin Ranch Road
* Southbound Tustin Ranch Road on-ramp to I-5 Freeway
* Segments of freeway widening from six to twelve lanes
* Soundwalls
The remaining work of the interchange, consisting of the northbound
I-5 on-ramp from Tustin Ranch Road and the southbound off -ramp from
the I-5 freeway to Tustin Ranch Road was not included within this
contract and is being constructed under a separate contract being
administered by Caltrans as part of the freeway widening between
Tustin Ranch Road and Newport Avenue. These ramps are scheduled
for completion about Spring of 1992.
The contractor, Steve P. Rados, Inc., previously requested an
escrow account be set up with Bank of America for retention
earnings required to be withheld pursuant to the construction
contract entered into between the City and the contractor. These
retention monies amount to 5% of the total monies earned by the
contractor for the duration of the contract.
DISCUSSION:
All work has been completed to the satisfaction of the Tustin
Engineering Division and the Caltrans Resident Engineer and has
been accepted by both Caltrans and the City's staff. The final
contract amount is $10,899,013.50 which is inclusive of $857,177.10
for contract change orders. Approximately $490,000 of this change
order amount will be returned to the City by other agencies that
required work to be done under the City's contractor so as not to
delay project progress, the remaining change order amounts
pertained to routine miscellaneous work items required under
Caltrans contract administration procedures and items of work not
included on the original plan preparation.
Attached is a copy of the Caltrans recommendation of contract
acceptance. It is recommended that the City Council accept the
works of improvement on the subject project and authorize the
recordation of the Notice of Completion for said work with the
adoption of Resolution No. 91-123.
