RECOMMENDATIONS: a) Find this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(c), Class 1 (maintenance of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use) of the CEQA Guidelines, because this project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment; b) Approve the project plans and specifications; c) Approve Budget Amendment No. 24-078 appropriating $42,000 in new revenue and expenditures from Orange County Sanitation District to Account No. 13501-980000- 22R11; d) Award Contract No. 8833-2 to R.J.

Both Balboa Boulevard and Newport Boulevard are heavily used arterials and are in need of rehabilitation. Additionally, a portion of 32nd Street, not previously improved with the Newport Boulevard and 32nd Street intersection improvements, will be rehabilitated. These improvements will complete the approximate 15- to 20-year arterial pavement rehabilitation cycle efforts for the majority of the Balboa Peninsula. At 10 a.m. on May 2, 2024, the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for this project: BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT Low R.J. Noble Company $5,119,060.00 2nd Hardy & Harper, Inc. $5,176,000.00 3rd All American Asphalt $5,359,953.50 4th Excel Paving $5,848,984.00 5th Sully -Miller $5,976,565.00 The City received five bids for this project. The low bidder, R.J. Noble Company, possesses a California State Contractor's License Classification "A" and its electrical subcontractor, California Professional Engineering, Inc., possesses a California State Contractor's License Classification "C-10", as required by the project specifications. A review of references for R.J. Noble Company shows satisfactory completion of similar contracts for the City and other agencies. R.J. Noble Company is also currently working on two separate contracts for the City and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) within the city limits. The low bid was 1.6% percent above the Engineer's Estimate of $5,039,000.00. This minor difference was primarily attributed to the increased cost for construction surveying. All five bids were relatively close to the Engineer's Estimate. This project includes cold milling and overlaying the existing asphalt concrete pavement with new rubberized asphalt concrete pavement; reconstructing deteriorated concrete driveways, sidewalks, curb and gutters, curb access ramps, and cross -gutters; adjusting utility boxes and manholes to grade; installing new traffic signs; installing new pedestrian safety enhancements at the intersections of Balboa Boulevard and 13t" and 14t" Streets; restriping pavement; and other appurtenant items of work. Refer to the attached location map for limits of proposed improvements. Pursuant to the contract specifications, the contractor will have 90 consecutive working days to complete the work. Work is scheduled to start in July (or sooner) in order to complete the improvements adjacent to Newport Elementary School prior to the start of the 2024-25 school year. 7-2 Balboa Boulevard, Newport Boulevard, and 32nd Street Pavement Rehabilitation — Award of Contract No. 8833-2 (22R11) May 28, 2024 Page 3 This project is part of the state's CalRecycle Rubberized Grant Program.
