Lindley, Assistant to the City Manager DATE: December 14, 1994 (CC Meeting of January 4) SUBJECT: Consider Award of the Dorothy Wall Demolition and Construction Project Background On October 19, the City Council rejected the Dorothy Wall proposals and directed staff to readvertise the project. As readvertised, the project was broken down into two separate work schedules: Schedule I) demolition and construction of the wall east of Bard Street only, and Schedule II) demolition and construction of the wall east and west of Bard Street (see Attachment A) . The City received eight proposals. The bidders and proposal costs are as follows: Contractor Schedule A Schedule B Parsans Construction $25,979 $52, 181 Construction Group of 28, 133 61,449 Santa Barbara Castle Building & Engineering 31, 675 58, 692 Chalmers Construction 32,448 63 ,710 Patterson Company Inc. 33 ,437 64, 198 Greg Quigley concrete 33,957 75,276 Phil Carter Company Inc. 35,755 71, 584 Allied Building Contractors 39,843 88, 918 The low bidder for both Schedule I and Schedule II is Parsans Construction. In addition to readvertising the Dorothy Wall project, the City Council also directed staff to contact the property owners affected by the portion of the project west of Bard Street to determine if they would be willing to pay a share of the construction cost. The Council considered the possibility of funding half of the project 00223 • y. Dorothy Wall Construction December 13, 1994 Page 2 west of Bard Street and making low interest loans available to qualified property owners through the Redevelopment Agency's Housing Rehab Program. The attached letter (Attachment B) was sent to the 12 property owners who live in the affected area. Only two property owners responded to the City's inquiry - both indicated that they would not share in the cost of the project. The responses, and lack thereof, indicate that the City cannot get 100 percent, if any, participation on the part of the homeowners west of Bard Street. To proceed with Schedule II, the City would have to fund the entire cost of the project which is approximately $55, 000. Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council approve Schedule I and award the project to Parsans Construction. The total cost of Schedule I is $30,000 which includes $25, 979 for construction, $1, 300 for inspection and permits, and $3 , 000 as a contingency (10%) . The Council has already approved a funding source for the original east project proposal (50% TDA and 50% MRA bond proceeds) and allocated $26, 100. Staff recommends that the City Council allocate an additional $3,900; 50 percent from TDA and 50 percent from MRA bond proceeds. Recommendation (Roll Call Vote) Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) Approve Schedule I of the Dorothy Wall Construction Project; 2) Award the project to Parsans Construction and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement with Parsans on behalf of the City; and 3) Appropriate an additional $3,900 for the project (12 .4. 151. 642) - 50 percent from TDA (11.4. 142 . 642) and 50 percent from MRA bond proceeds (01.4. 170. 642) . 00224 SCHEDULE I: EAST OF BARD STREET ii-a .h mer f A DOROTHY STREET WALL PLAN Map not to scale W S E Metrolink Parking Lot Bard Street Doroth Wall 4-1 Dorothy Street a� - v b PQ SCOPE • Construction area includes six private property owners. • Install temporary six foot high chain link fence on private property side (south of the wall) to ensure the protection of private property before demolishing the existing wall. • Demolish and remove existing block wall and footings. • Construct block wall-beginning at a point 80 feet east of eastern end of the 10 foot Bard Street wall. • Construct block wall six feet high and 484 feet in length. • Contractor may be required to provide one additional course of block in area specified by City to adjust for property elevation differences. • The depth of footings may be adjusted in the field to address elevation differences, as determined by City. • Access property from the Metrolink Station parking lot. • Remove temporary chain link fence upon completion of the block wall. • Remove all debris from site. 00225 IN SCHEDULE II: ENTIRE PROJECT fiFFerIcX ' fl" Map not to Scale C.CD N DOROTHY STREET WALL PLAN , -4; W j E 1 CQ = 451: CD ________ __ --_ _ --4•••• C.

The cost of- the wall for each property would be approximately $3,500. This figure is an estimate, the exact costs would be provided when the City receives bid proposals.
