BACKGROUND: As part of the 2004 budget process, City Council approved a project to construct a' landscaped median along Seal Beach Blvd. between Westminster Avenue and Beverly Manor Road. The project provides aesthetic enhancement to the City's corridor and provides traffic benefits to motorists and nearby residents of Leisure World. W.G. Zimmerman Engineering was selected through the City's selection process to design the project and conceptual plans were presented to both Leisure World Council Members for review of conceptual planting schemes and layout. The work consisted of excavation of existing asphalt paving within the pavement markings of Seal Beach Blvd. center turning lane. It was replaced with fertilized soil for trees, shrubbery and textured concrete, bounded by concrete curbs. During the design phase, it was discovered that the existing pavement is composed of concrete 6 — 10 inches below the existing 8 -inch layer of asphalt. The cost to remove the additional concrete increased the costs above the original budget allocation. Staff slightly reduced the scope of work in order to bring the project within the budget constraints. In accordance with the plans and specifications, the contractor has completed the aforementioned project for a final contract amount of $760,705.37. This amount included changes in the scope of work that was later deleted to the original contract FISCAL IMPACT: The project cost including design, construction and inspection, totaled $840,000 and were available in fiscal year 2004/2005 from the General Fund within the City's approved 5 -year Capital Improvement Program budget under Project No. 50200. An additional $10k was also spent from the Water Enterprise Fund for the water service required for the project. Agenda Item .I RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: 1.
