HomeMy WebLinkAbout10-04-2016 Item 06 Jennifer Street Sewer Line Replacement Project Award Spec. No. 91185 Meeting Date: 10/4/2016
FROM: Carrie Mattingly, Director of Utilities
Prepared By: Jennifer Metz, Utilities Project Manager
SUBJECT: JENNIFER STREET SEWER LINE REPLACEMENT PROJECT
AWARD, SPECIFICATION NO. 91185
RECOMMENDATION
1. Award a contract to Specialty Construction, Inc. in the amount of $1,493,870 for the Jennifer
Street Sewer Line Replacement Project, Specification No. 91185.
2. Approve a transfer of $756,870 from Sewer Fund working capital to the project account.
DISCUSSION
The Jennifer Street Sewer Line Replacement project, Specification No. 91185, includes the
replacement, rerouting and abandonment of existing structurally unsound sewer mains that date
from the early 1900s, On July 11, 2016, the City Council authorized a total project budget of
$965,000 for the project, that included $802,000 for construction, $2,500 for materials testing,
$500 for printing and miscellaneous expenses, and $160,000 of construction contingencies. The
City Council authorized the invitation of construction bids and authorized the City Mana ger to
execute a contract for the construction of the project if the lowest responsible bid was within the
Engineer’s Estimate of $802,000 (Attachment A).
Three bids were received and opened on September 1, 2016. All bids, which were within
$150,000 of each other, were over the engineer’s estimate which requires Council approval to
authorize additional funding and to award the contract. As shown in the Bid Summary
(Attachment B) Specialty Construction Inc. was the low bidder at $1,493,870. Completion of this
project is critical because of the condition of the two sewer mains under the Union Pacific
railroad tracks.
The contractor that bid the project indicated that the project exceeded the engineer’s estimate due
the risk and complexity of the work, the cost of materials, traffic control requirements, and the
potential to encounter rock while boring under the railroad tracks for the installation of the
replacement sewer main. Staff has consulted with the Engineering Division and the project
design engineer and will use this project information to more develop more accurate cost
estimates. Due to the funding necessary to award this project, the construction schedule of future
wastewater collection capital projects may be delayed.
CONCURRENCES
The Public Works Department will provide inspection services for the proposed sewer line
replacement project and concurs with the recommendations in this report.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction of existing structures and
facilities).
FISCAL IMPACT
On July 11, 2016 the City Council approved the Jennifer Street Sewer Line Replacement project
with a total project budget of $965,000. Staff recommends awarding the contract (Attachment C)
to Specialty Construction, Inc., transferring $756,870 from Sewer Fund balance. This amount
will provide the needed funding for contract award and construction contingencies.
Due to the unplanned increase in cost of this project, the schedule of future CIP projects may
need to be adjusted. As part of the 2017-19 budget process, all CIP will be reevaluated for cost
and priority.
As of the 2016-17 Supplemental Budget, there was $12,030,620 available in the Sewer Fund
working capital account. There is an approved budget amendment request pending for $152,000
which leaves an available balance of $11,878,620 to support this request.
ALTERNATIVES
Reject all bids and direct staff to re-advertise the project. The City Council may choose to reject
all bids and direct staff to re-bid the project. Should Council choose this alternative the project
will be delayed by as much as three months; the project is time-sensitive due to the potential for
failure of the existing sewer line crossing the railroad tracks and the inability to bypass from that
location.

RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve plans and specifications for the Jennifer Street Sewer Line Replacement,
Specification No. 91185 and authorize staff to advertise for bids; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to award the contract if the lowest responsible bid is within the
Engineer's estimate of $802,000.
DISCUSSION
Background
The Jennifer Street Sewer Line Replacement project includes the replacement, rerouting and
abandonment of existing structurally unsound clay sewer mains that date from the early 1900s.
The project includes jack and bore construction under the Union Pacific railroad tracks for the
installation of a 15-inch welded steel encasement and 8 inch sewer line, open trenching for the
installation of the new eight-inch sewer main, and installation of approximately 660 feet cured-
in-place six-inch pipe liner. The project will reroute wastewater flow to a portion of the
collection system that was upgraded in 2013. The project also includes installation of 760 feet of
eight-inch sewer main along the City’s bike path, abandonment of 650 feet of sewer line under
the railroad at the intersection of Rachel and Florence Streets to Santa Barbara Road, and
redirects a portion of the flow to the collection system that was upgraded in 2011.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to
CEQA Guidelines section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction of existing structures and
facilities).
CONCURRENCES

FISCAL IMPACT
This project is identified on page 3-160, of the 2013-15 Financial Plan, Capital Improvement
Plan. All project funding is derived from the sewer fund and includes a construction budget of
300,000 for the Jennifer Street and $400,000 for the Rachel Street railroad crossing projects. An
additional $237,000 and $144,000 was added to the Jennifer and Rachel Street project budgets ,
respectively, during the budget supplement in June 2014, resulting in a total project budget of
1,081,000. The total project budget includes funding for design, easement acquisition,
construction, and construction management services. Easement acquisition was completed in
October 2015.
The Engineer's estimate for construction of the project is $802,000. The project budget is
displayed below.
Because of the potential to encounter contaminated soil within the railroad corridor, the bid
documents include a bid item for the preparation of a health and safety plan and excavation and
containment of contaminated soils.
A total of $1,040,000 is available in the Wastewater Collection System Master Account to
support this project.
ALTERNATIVES
Deny or defer approval to advertise. The City Council may choose to deny or defer the approval
to advertise this project. Staff does not recommend this option, as the sewer main will continue to
deteriorate and pose a high risk of catastrophic failure, resultant in sewer overflows, water quality
violations, and potential fines.
