BACKGROUND:
As part of the Economic Stimulus Federal Funds, Orange County has been
awarded $33,000,000 for transportation funds to 34 cities. The City of Seal
Beach has been awarded $500,000 based on population. Staff designated the
funds to resurface Seal Beach Boulevard from Pacific Coast Highway to Bolsa
Avenue.
In order to receive the funds, the Federal Government distributes the funds to the
State Department of Transportation, Caltrans. Caltrans in turn administers the
funds directly to each local agency. The administration process for receiving the
funds is lengthily and time consuming. Staff has completed the process and has
obtained clearance and approval to administer the funds for this project.
Engineering staff prepared a full bid package to advertise and solicited for bids
for the Seal Beach Boulevard Resurfacing Project from Pacific Coast Highway. to
Bolsa Avenue, Project, No. ST1005. The scope of work consists of grinding and
paving back approximately 160,000 square feet of rubberized asphalt. The cost
of construction is estimated at $496,413.
