project:
BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT
Low Hillcrest Contracting, Inc. of Corona $1,440,944.80
2 Sequel Contractors, Inc. of Santa Fe Springs $1,534,675.00
3 Palp, Inc. of Long Beach $1,743,451.00

Subject: Jamboree Road /MacArthur Boulevard Intersection Improvements — Award of Contract No. 3369
June 24, 2003
Page: 2
The low total bid amount is six percent below the Engineer's Estimate of $1,540,000.
The low bidder, Hillcrest Contracting, Inc., possesses a General Engineering "A"
contractor's license as required by the project specifications. Hillcrest has completed
similar projects for other Southern California agencies.
The work will widen the portion of northbound MacArthur Boulevard between Jamboree
Road and Fairchild Road to facilitate the space needed to add a left -tum lane at
Jamboree Road for both directions and to add a northbound right -turn lane at Jamboree
Road, thus increasing intersection capacity and improving the level of service for
existing and future traffic.
To accommodate the roadway widening and traffic realignment, retaining walls, various
utility relocations, PCC sidewalks, asphalt concrete pavement, a traffic signal, and a
street lighting system will be constructed next to the Centerpointe Business Center
within the City of Irvine. The existing raised median islands on MacArthur Boulevard
adjacent to the intersection will be reconstructed and realigned. The southbound
Jamboree Road right -turn lane and the adjacent traffic island at MacArthur Blvd will be
reconstructed to improve traffic flow. The existing curb -side bus stop along northbound
MacArthur Boulevard in front of the Koll Center will be replaced with a new mid -block
bus "turn-out" pocket. New landscaping, irrigation system, various drainage facilities,
and pavement striping and markings will be constructed throughout the work limits.
This project was approved by the Orange County Transportation Authority for competitive
Intersection Improvement Program (IIP) funds under the Combined Transportation
Funding Program. The IIP will fund up to $642,742 for the construction work and up to
$87,600 for administrative, testing, and inspection services. In addition, since the
improvements are within both the City of Newport Beach and the City of Irvine, the City of
Irvine has agreed, through a Cooperative Agreement, to reimburse the City of Newport
Beach for their portion of the project costs, up to $722,000 for construction and up to
$98,500 for administrative and inspection services.
Environmental Review
The City of Irvine prepared the Initial Study and the Negative Declaration (without
mitigation measures) document, which is attached. It was posted by the County Clerk
on September 21, 2001. The public review period ended on October 24, 2001. No
public comments were received.
Funding Availability-.
Staff originally budgeted $314,620 for the contribution from the City of Irvine and now
requests a Budget Amendment appropriating an additional $505,880 to Account No. 7251 -
05100584 for the total $820,500 to be reimbursed by the City of Irvine.

Urban and Industrial
5.1 IBC Multi -Use
The Jamboree Road & MacArthur Boulevard Intersection Improvement Project (CIP 312030) is a
joint effort between the cities of Irvine and Newport Beach, in which the City of Irvine is the lead
agency for the environmental phase of the project. The improvements at the intersection provide
increased operational capacity and efficiency, and are included as a mitigation measure for the 1985
and 1991 Environmental Impact Reports (EIR) for the Irvine Business Center (IBC) Re -Zone.
Improvements include realignment of the westbound to northbound right tum movement onto
MacArthur Boulevard, and widening of the northbound MacArthur Boulevard approach to provide
for a dedicated right tum lane onto Jamboree Road. Improvements also include a second northbound
and southbound left-tum lane on MacArthur Boulevard by way of reduced median widths. Minor
improvements include sidewalks, traffic signal modifications, drainage improvements, and parkway
landscaping. In order to accommodate the dedicated northbound right -tum lane, an estimated 14,562
sq. ft. of right of way must be acquired with the project. An estimated 700 -foot long, 10 -foot high
retaining wall is proposed east of the northbound right -tum lane due to existing sloped landscape at
the location.

DETERMINATION: (To be completed by the Lead Agency)
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a
NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
❑ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there
will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or
agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be
prepared.
❑ I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment; and an
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
❑ 1 find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact' or "potentially
significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been
adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been
addressed my mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that
remain to be addressed.
❑ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, because
all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE
DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant
to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that
are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing further is required.

be a temporary condition, would cease upon project completion, and is subject to noise ordinance requirements.
In orderto minimize construction noise impacts, the City of Irvine requires that construction activity be limited to
the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday with no
construction on Sundays or federal holidays. Although the project slightly increases the daily traffic volumes
through the intersection, the post - project traffic noise will not be perceptibly different away from the immediate
project vicinity. As a result the slight increase in ambient noise levels on the project vicinity is considered less than
significant.

(a through c) The proposed project does not involve additional housing development in the community. It will
not alter the location, distribution, density, or growth rate of the City's population. No impact will result.
XIII. PUBLIC SERVICES
a) Would the project result in substantial adverse
physical impacts associated with the provision of
new or physically altered government facilities,
need for new or physically altered governmental
facilities, the construction of which could cause
significant environmental impacts, in order to
maintain acceptable service ratios, response times
or other performance objectives for any of the

construction or expansion of recreational facilities. No impact will result.
XV. TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC. Would the project:
a)
Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in
❑
❑
17X
❑
relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of
the street system (i.e., result in a substantial
increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the
volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at
intersections)?
b)
Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level
❑
❑
❑
1 7X
of service standard established by the county
congestion management agency for designated
roads or highways?
c)
Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including
❑
❑
❑

supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus
turnouts, bicycle racks)?
(a) As part of the mitigation measures associated with the 1985 and 1991 EIR for the Re- Zoning of the Irvine
Business Complex (IBC), the project increases the capacity for right -turns onto Jamboree Road through the
proposed dedicated right -turn only lane from northbound MacArthur Boulevard to eastbound Jamboree Road.
The second left-turn lanes from both directions of MacArthur Boulevard onto Jamboree Road increase the
capacity for left turn volumes. Therefore, the proposed project will result in improved conditions at the subject
intersection and will not result in an increase in traffic in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the
street system.
(b through g) The proposed project improves the operational level of service at the intersection, does not result
in a change in air traffic patterns and does not incorporate substandard design features. The project provides
adequate emergency access and does not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting
alternative transportation. No impact will result.

regulations related to solid waste?
(a through g) The proposed project will not generate wastewater or a demand for water. Therefore, new
facilities will not be needed, and new storm water drainage facilities are not required. No solid wastes will be
generated with the proposed project. No impact will result.
XVII. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the
quality of the environment, substantially reduce the
habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self - sustaining levels,
threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community,
reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important
examples of the major periods of California history or
prehistory?
b) Does the project have impacts that are individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable?
( "Cumulatively considerable" means that the
incremental effects of a project are considerable when
viewed in connection with the effects of past projects,
the effects of other current projects, and the effects of
probable future projects)?

El ❑
(a) Due to the limited scope of the proposed project, project implementation would not have the potential to
degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a
fish or wildlife population to drop below self - sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plan or animal
community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate
important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. No impacts beyond the
immediate intersection are anticipated.
(b) Due to the relatively limited nature of the proposed physical improvements, the project would not involve
significant cumulative impacts. The project creates a positive regional traffic and air quality effect, and for
these reasons, is a key mitigation measure for the 1985 and 1991 EIRs for the Re- Toning of the Irvine
Business Complex (IBC).
(c) Due to the nature and relatively limited scope of the proposed improvements, project implementation would
not have environmental effects that would cause substantial adverse effects on human beings.
Construction- related activities are anticipated to have only minor, temporary impacts (congestion, noise).
Potential long -term impacts, including noise, is less than significant.
