DISCUSSION:
On May 24, 1999, the City Council authorized the award of the Balboa Boulevard
Reconstruction, Main to "G" Street contract to Los Angeles Engineering, Inc., of Rosemead,
California. The contract provided for the re- paving of Balboa Boulevard from Main Street to G
Street. The contract also included the removal and replacement of deteriorated sidewalk, curb
access ramps, driveways, cross gutters, curb & gutter, landscape planters and streetscape
improvements using interlocking pavers at the intersection of Balboa Boulevard and Main
Street. The contract has now been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works
Department. A summary of the contract cost is as follows:
Original bid amount: $574,564.10
Actual amount of bid items constructed: 610,895.58
Total amount of change orders: 76,067.92
Final contract cost: $686,963.50
The increase in the amount of actual bid items constructed over the original bid amount
resulted from the additional cold milling of existing concrete roadway found under the asphalt
roadway. The final overall construction cost, including change orders, was 19.6 percent over
the original bid amount. All change orders exceeding the 10 percent original bid cost had City
Manager approval.
A total of nine monetary change orders were issued to complete the project. They were as
follows:
A change order in the amount of $700.00 provided for the replacement of a
brick driveway at 1134 Balboa Boulevard.

The scheduled completion date was November 19, 1999. Due to inclement weather and extra
work, time extensions were granted until December 17, 1999. All work was completed by that
date with the exception of punch -list items. One item on the list was the settlement of some
brick pavers at the intersection of Balboa Boulevard and Main Street. Staff elected to have the
contractor not do any remedial work until the settlement stopped. The remedial work now has
been completed.
