On March 29, 2005, the following five (5) sealed bids were received: Design/Administration Construction Construction Inspection & Administration (7.5%) Construction Contingencies (1 5%) Total Project Cost Total Amount Appropriated for this Project Additional Appropriations Required $21,481 $1 80,954 $13,572 $27,143 $243,150 $1 55,000 $88,150 The Engineer's Estimate for construction of the improvements was $1 56,718. The lowest responsible bidder is GIM General Engineering at $1 80,954. The documents submitted by GIM General Engineering for the project have been reviewed and analyzed by staff and found to be in order. Staff, therefore, recommends the award of the construction contract to GIM General Engineering. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The proposed improvements to Carlsbad Boulevard consist of installation of a left turn pocket at an existing intersection and the addition of paved area to facilitate U-turns for larger vehicles. All work would be conducted within the existing public right-of-way and no significant increase in traffic circulation or roadway capacity would occur. Therefore the project qualifies as a minor alteration of an existing facility and is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15301(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines. FISCAL IMPACT: The funds needed to complete the project are estimated at $243,150. The project cost breakdown is as follows: Page 2 of Agenda Bill No. 18,102 To date, South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Area tax funds totaling $155,000 have been appropriated to the project. Due to current economic conditions, construction costs for traffic signal and roadway construction have increased significantly since funds were originally budgeted for the project. The project is now estimated at $243,150 and an additional appropriation from the South Carlsbad Coastal Redevelopment Area tax fund of $88,150 is required to complete the project. EXHIBITS: 1.
