HomeMy WebLinkAbout12 - Amendment No. One with Hardy & Harper, Inc. for On -Call Asphalt Repair ServicesTO: FROM: CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH City Council Staff Report July 9, 2019 Agenda Item No. 12 HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL David A. Webb, Public Works Director - 949-644-3311, dawebb@newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Micah Martin, Deputy Director of Public Works — Municipal Operations Division mmartin(a)_newportbeachca.gov PHONE: 949-644-3059 TITLE: Amendment No. One with Hardy & Harper, Inc. for On -Call Asphalt Repair Services ABSTRACT: Staff utilizes on-call contractors to perform asphalt repair services in order to keep the City's roadways safe and in good condition. At the July 11, 2017 City Council meeting, Council approved two (2) agreements for asphalt repair services with Hardy & Harper, Inc. and NPG, Inc. Staff now requests an amendment to the current agreement with Hardy & Harper to increase the total not -to -exceed to $600,000 as well as extend the contract end date to June 26, 2022. RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; and b) Approve Amendment No. One to the current on-call maintenance/repair services agreement with Hardy & Harper, Inc. to increase the not -to -exceed amount by $400,000 for a total amount not -to -exceed $600,000, extend the term of the agreement to June 26, 2022, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the amendment. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for these services. It will be expensed to various operating or Capital Improvement Program budget accounts in the Public Works Department associated with the required work. 12-1 Amendment No. One with Hardy & Harper, Inc. for On -Call Asphalt Repair Services July 9, 2019 Page 2 DISCUSSION: On July 11, 2017, the former General Services Department brought an agreement before City Council for asphalt repair services with Hardy & Harper, Inc. The staff report for that agreement stated that the agreement would be for a term of three years with a total amount not -to -exceed $200,000 per year, however, the agreement itself stated just a total not -to -exceed amount of $200,000, missing the language that indicated "per year." Due to this staff error, staff now seeks to remedy this oversight and increase the not -to -exceed amount to the originally desired total of $600,000. Hardy & Harper has a history of working with the City prior to their current agreement, as they also held a contract from 2013-2015 for asphalt repair services and currently hold a five-year on-call agreement for sidewalk grinding services with the City. This current on- call agreement for asphalt repair services includes asphalt paving, asphalt overlay, pothole patching, seal coating, crack filling and emergency repairs, all of which are necessary to ensure the City's roadways remain safe and in excellent condition. In order to complete necessary work around the City and continue to provide the current level of asphalt patching and maintenance service for the City's thoroughfares, staff requests City Council approve Amendment No. One with Hardy & Harper, Inc. to increase the contract authority by $400,000, for a total amount not -to -exceed $600,000, and extend the term of the agreement to June 26, 2022. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).
