AGENDA ITEM May 5, 1998
TO: George Scarborough, City Manager
FROM: Amy Amirani, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Consideration of Award of Bid for Ortega Highway Sidewalk Construction
RECOMMENDATION
By motion, accept the bids for Ortega Highway Sidewalk Construction and award to the lowest
qualified bidder.
SITUATION
In May 1998, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will begin overlaying Ortega
Highway east of the I-5 Freeway. At this time, the only crosswalk in this vicinity is at the corner of
Ortega Highway and La Novia Avenue, a three way intersection. Children and pedestrians needing
to cross Ortega Highway must do so at the crosswalk provided at the intersection of Ortega Highway
and La Novia Avenue. While sidewalk on the south side of Ortega Highway is provided, there is an
incomplete segment of sidewalk on the north side of Ortega Highway which forces pedestrians over
an uneven, dirt surface or into the street. Staff believes that the Ortega Highway overlay project will
only serve to worsen the situation.
Due to these concerns for pedestrian safety during the Ortega Highway overlay project, Staff
recommends completion of the unfinished segment. The portion required will extend along the north
side of Ortega Highway, from La Novia Avenue easterly approximately 550 feet. Completion of the
sidewalk is not an item included in the Caltrans project.
Staff is currently advertising and soliciting bids for construction of the sidewalk, estimated at a cost
of $25,000. Bids will be submitted to the City on May 4, 1998. The bid results and staff
recommendation will be presented at the City Council meeting on May 5, 1998 (see draft contract
attached). If the City Council is not in agreement with Staff recommendation for award of contract
at that time, new bids can be solicited and/or other options can be discussed.
At this time, staff recommends that the City Council award the contract for Ortega Highway Sidewalk
Construction to the lowest qualified bidder.
