SUBJECT: PROJECT NO. SP-94107 ®PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
CONSTRUCTION OF
CONCRETE SIDEWALK/WHEELCHAIR RAMPS
SUMMARY: Seventeen (17) bids were received and opened
on Thursday, January 26, 1995, for this
project which consists of the construction of
concrete sidewalk and wheelchair ramps as
requested by petition of the residents. The
lowest responsible bid is $41,645.00 from
Grigona and Sons Construction Co., Inc. of
Azusa.
BACKGROUND
Each year, the City uses whatever funds are available from the Transportation Development
Act (TDA) to construct sidewalks. Since the completion of the priority sidewalk program for
"Safe Routes to Schools", locations are now chosen as a result of residents requests and staff
recommendations for filling in gaps in existing areas of sidewalk. Residents have requested
three locations for this year as follows:
(1) Garvey Avenue North (north side) from Willow Street to west City limit
.(1000 lineal feet).
(2) Orange Avenue (west side) from Palm Drive to San Bernardino Road (85
lineal feet).
(3) Citrus Street (east side) from Cameron Avenue to north of Evergreen (715
lineal feet).
In addition to the above locations, the project includes 41 wheelchair ramps in various
locations as shown on the attached location map. Twenty-five of these wheelchair ramps are
funded from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Funds and the rest are
funded from the TDA Funds since they are sidewalk related.
On December 20, 1994', the City Council approved the plans and specifications and
authorized the City Engineer to call for bids. The bids were opened in the office of the.. City
Clerk on Thursday, January 26, 1995. A total of seventeen (17) bids were received and
checked for errors and all were determined to be valid.
ANALYSIS
The estimated cost for this project was $52,000.
i
The estimated cost is slightly lower than what was submitted in our memorandum on
December 20, 1994 due to a lesser number of wheelchair ramps being constructed.
The construction cost of the lowest responsible bidder is $41, 645.00. The . attached
tabulation indicates the 'summary of bids received.
