Crumby, P.E., Director of Public Works SUBJECT: NOTICE OF COMPLETION FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL UPGRADES PROJECT NO. ST1008 -A SUMMARY OF REQUEST: It is requested that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6060 to formally accept completion of the Traffic Signal Upgrades Project No. ST1008 -A, direct the City Clerk to file a "Notice of Completion" with the Orange County Clerk- Recorder within ten (10) days from the date of acceptance, release retention in the amount of $1,741.50 in 35 days, and authorize a purchase order to Republic Intelligent Transportation Services, Inc. for $6,250. BACKGROUND: The original Traffic Improvement Master Plan Project No. ST1008 consisted of signal, signing, and striping improvements citywide. Staff divided the project into two separate projects; one is Traffic Signal Upgrades, Project No ST1008 -A and the other is Striping and Signage Improvements, Project No ST1008 -B. Staff believes that by dividing the project into two smaller projects, the City will receive cost savings. There are aspects of each project which require different licenses. Smaller companies will now be able to bid on the individual project separate from the other whereas before, only general license contractor would be able to bid on • the project. On April 12, 2010, City Council awarded a contract to Republic Intelligent Transportation Services, Inc. in the amount of $17,415 for the Traffic Signal Upgrades Project No. ST1008 -A. The project consists of upgrading 8 -inch signal heads with new 12 -inch signal heads. These traffic improvements on arterials and local roads will increase visibility, improve reaction time, and conform to the latest California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices standards. Agenda Item P Page 2 The project is now complete with the satisfaction of the City Engineer. FINANCIAL IMPACT: In the 2009/10 Budget, $50,000 was allocated for the Traffic Improvement Master Plan Project No. ST1008. Dividing the project into two separate projects, $25,000 was budgeted for Traffic Signal Upgrades Project No. ST1008 -A. The final construction cost totaled $17,415 and inspection costs were $85. The total cost for construction and inspection is $17,500. The remaining $7,500 will be used as match money for an awarded OCTA Measure M grant. The City was awarded $33,750 from Orange County Transportation Authority for upgrading two traffic signal controllers on Lampson Avenue. The total construction cost for the two controllers at Lampson Avenue & Candleberry Avenue and Lampson Avenue & Heather Street is $40,000. The total cost for construction $40,000 minus the OCTA grant $33,750 remains a shortfall of $6,250. The remaining $7,500 will fund the difference in construction and the inspection cost for the improvements. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6060 to formally accept completion of the Traffic Signal Upgrades Project No. ST1008 -A, direct the City Clerk to file a "Notice of Completion" with the Orange County Clerk- Recorder within ten (10) days from the date of acceptance, release retention in the amount of $1,741.50 in 35 days, and authorize a purchase order to Republic Intelligent Transportation Services, Inc. for $6,250.
