SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF EMBOSSED CONCRETE MEDIAN
PAVING IMPROVEMENTS AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS (Project #300011,
File No. 2445A)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Tustin City Council at their meeting
of January 21, 1991, award the contract for the subject project
to Nobest Inc., of Westminster in the amount of $36,798.00.
BACKGROUND:
This proposed contract provides for the construction and
replacement of embossed concrete median pavement, modification
of concrete median island noses, construction of asphalt
concrete pavement, and installation of traffic control signs at
nineteen (19) locations on Irvine Boulevard, First Street,
Walnut Avenue, and Newport Avenue.
On December 3, 1990, the Tustin City Council approved the plans
and specifications for the subject project and authorized the
advertisement of bids for said work.
DISCUSSION:
A single bid was received and opened at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday,
January 10, 1991. This bid from Nobest Inc., was in the amount
of $36,798.00 which is 16.9% over the engineer's bidding
estimate of $31,470.00. Readvertisement for bids is not
recommended because of the specialized nature of the subject
work will attract very few contractors bidding, and a similar
result will most likely be obtained. The cost of the subject
project in the amount of $36,798.00 will be funded as follows:
Street Maintenance Account No. 4030-6245 $13,046.00
Capital Improvement Program Project No. 300011 23,752.00
$36,798.00
It is anticipated that construction will start in February and
be completed in April, 1991.
