Webb, Public Works Director- (949) 644 -3330, dawebb @newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Fong Tse, Assistant City Engineer PHONE: (949) 644 -3321 TITLE: Harbor Piers Maintenance Project - Completion and Acceptance of Contract No. 5756 (CAP14 -0023) ABSTRACT: At the May 27, 2014 regular meeting, City Council awarded the Harbor Piers Maintenance Project Contract No. 5756 to Associated Pacific Constructors, Inc. (APC) for a total contract amount of $181,986.75. This work is now complete and staff requests City Council acceptance and close out of the contract. RECOMMENDATION: a) Accept the completed work and authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion for the project; b) Authorize the City Clerk to release the Labor and Materials Bond 65 days after the Notice of Completion has been recorded in accordance with applicable portions of the Civil Code; and c) Release the Faithful Performance Bond one year after this Council acceptance. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Funds for the construction contract were expended from the following account: Account Description Account Number Amount Tide and Submerged Lands 7231- C4401002 $ 189,425.32 Total: $ 189,425.32 4 -1 DISCUSSION: Overall Contract Cost /Time Summary The contract has now been substantially completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. A summary of the contract cost is as follows: Original bid amount: $ 181,986.75 Actual cost of bid items constructed: $ 182,977.38 Total change orders: $ 6,447.94 Final contract cost: $ 189,425.32 Prior to this project, ten of the twelve public piers along Newport Bay were in need of maintenance, with decking surfaces needing the most attention. These locations were M- Street, Washington Street, Fernando Street, 15th Street, 19th Street, Coral Avenue, Opal Avenue, Emerald Avenue, Sapphire Avenue, and Park Avenue. The project revitalized these piers with new composite decking, handrails, side railings, and new benches from City stock. During the course of the work, it was brought to the Project Manager's attention that at some of the project locations, hardware at structure members deteriorated more than originally anticipated. This below -deck space was not easily accessible during the non - destructive inspection design phase. It was determined upon further examination that it would be both prudent and cost effective in the long term to replace these components while the piers were under construction. Accordingly, a contract change order was issued to make these additional replacements. The final construction contract cost, including said change order, was 4.09 percent above the original contract amount. A summary of the project schedule is as follows: Estimated Completion Date per 2014 Baseline Schedule 12/19/2014 Estimated Project Award for Construction 6/24/2014 Actual Project Award 5/27/2014 Contract Completion Date Per Notice To Proceed 1/2/2015 Actual Substantial Construction Completion Date 12/23/2014 4 -2 Actual Awarded Final Cost at Contingency % Due to % Due to Contract Amount Completion Allowance Contract Directed Unforeseen Change Change Change $181,986.75 $189,425.32 10% or less 4.09% 0.55% Actual Time Allowed Contract Time (days) 50 6 44 The contract has now been substantially completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department.

Therefore, rather than requiring APC to proceed in phases and incur the associated demobilization and re- mobilization costs, staff directed APC to begin work after all of the required materials arrived (five months later in October 2014). Even with the delayed materials delivery, the project was completed essentially on time. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The Project was determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") pursuant to Section 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) of the CEQA Guidelines. This Exemption covers the replacement or reconstruction of existing facilities where the new improvements will be located on the same site as the facilities replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the facilities replaced. 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).
