SUBJECT: AWARD VERDE / LUNETA / RAMONA / BROAD SEWER
REPLACEMENT, SPECIFICATION NO. 1000091
RECOMMENDATION
1. Award the construction contract for Verde / Luneta / Ramona / Broad Sewer
Replacement, Specification Number 1000091 to Souza Engineering Contracting in the
amount of $1,467,822; and
2. Approve the following budget transfers:
a) $360,000 from the Sewer Fund Undesignated Capital account to the project
account; and
b) $150,000 from the Water Fund Undesignated Capital account to the project
account; and
3. Authorize the City Engineer to execute Contract Change Orders within available
project budget.
DISCUSSION
Background
On March 15, 2022, the City Council authorized staff to advertise for construction bids for
the Verde/Luneta/Ramona/Broad Sewer Replacement (Council Agenda Report) and to
authorize the City Manager to award the contract if the lowest responsible bid was below
the publicly disclosed funding amount of $1,156,000. The project bid documents included
a Base Bid and an Additive Alternative.
On April 28, 2022, four bids were received and opened (Attachment A). Souza
Engineering Contracting Inc. provided the lowest responsive bid for the Base Bid and
Additive Alternative A in the amount of $1,467,822. Since the lowest bid amount exceeds
the delegated authority provided to the City Manager by $311,822, staff is returning to
Council to request authorization to award the contract. The increase in construction costs
may be attributed to the high demand for this type of contract work in the region, and the
scope of work added to replace a segment of water main along Broad Street. Prior to the
project bid opening deadline, staff identified 268 linear feet of existing cast iron waterline
that is too close to the new sewer main being proposed. As part of the sequence of
construction, the interfering portions of water main on Broad Street must be reconstructed
after the new sewer mains are installed.

Item 5f
The Contractor’s references, license, and registration with the Department of Industrial
Relations have been verified. Staff has evaluated the bid and recommends contract
award of the Base Bid and Additive Alternative A to Souza Engineering Contracting
(Attachment B) and budget transfers be completed to fund the project.

Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
On March 15, 2022, the City Council authorized staff to advertise for bids for
Verde/Luneta/Ramona/Broad Sewer Replacement.
Policy Context
Per the March 15, 2022, Council Agenda Report, the project must be awarded by Council
if the construction contract is higher than the publicly disclosed funding amount.
Public Engagement
Public engagement was conducted during the initial identification of this Project to be
included in the 2019-21 and 2021-23 Financial Plans.
CONCURRENCE
This project has the concurrence of the Utilities Department.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project consists of the replacement of existing water and sewer mains, and a portion
of the project site is located within a potentially archaeologically sensitive zone (within
200 feet of Old Garden Creek). Based on the scope and location of the Project, it is
consistent with previously adopted Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND)
ER10-07. Mitigation measures approved through IS/MND ER10 -07 are included in the
Project’s specifications and will be followed by the City’s contractor, consistent with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Underground utility projects are considered high-risk for increased funding needs due to
many unknown subsurface conditions. Historically, waterline replacement projects
require more contingencies funds (20%-25%) to cover the additional cost of modifying the
project work due to previously unknown utility conflicts and hazardous conditions or
materials encountered during construction. Staff is requesting 25% contingencies for this
project.
Funding for this project is available in the Project Account (1000091) which ha s a current
balance of $1,372,218. Staff is recommending a transfer of $360,000 from the Sewer

Fund Undesignated Capital and $150,000 from Water Fund Undesignated Capital to fund
this project.
ALTERNATIVES
The City Council could deny the request to award the project. Staff does not
recommend this option, as the sewer and water mains included in this project continue to
deteriorate and pose a high risk of catastrophic failure, requiring expensive repairs.

The Contractor obligations under this section apply regardless of whether such claim,
charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment,
civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee.
However, without affecting the rights of the City under any provision of this agreement, the
Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless the City for liability
attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined
by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In
instances where the City is shown to have been actively negligent and where the City’s
active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of
the Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the
active negligence of the City.
ARTICLE V. It is further expressly agreed by and between the parties hereto that should
there be any conflict between the terms of this instrument and the bid of said Contractor,
then this instrument shall control and nothing herein shall be considered as an acceptance
of the said terms of said bid conflicting herewith.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties to these presents have hereunto set their hands this
year and date first above written.
