District 95-1 Funds for construction of this project. The bid amount for this work is $148,582.00.
BACKGROUND
The proposed construction project will complete the final segment of Orange County's Peters Canyon
Regional Riding and Hiking Trail in East Tustin. The proposed trail consists of an approximately 1,000
foot extension of the existing regional trail which includes a ten (10) foot wide asphalt paved bicycle trail
and a ten (10) foot wide decomposed granite multi-purpose trail separated by a landscaped buffer.

Environmental Construction, Inc.'s bid is about 22% above the engineer's estimate of $122,195.00.
During evaluation of the bids it was determined that the higher costs were primarily due to the higher
than expected material costs for asphalt and decomposed granite. The references and the State
Contractor's License for Environmental Construction, Inc. have been checked and are appropriate for
the subject project. It is therefore recommended that the City Council award the construction contract
to Environmental Construction, Inc. of Agoura Hills, CA.
