ACCEPTANCE OF PIER PLAZA PAVEMENT REPAIR

 

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council accept the Pier Plaza Pavement Repair performed by Shaw & Sons Concrete Contractors of Costa Mesa, California.

 

Background :

On August 8, 2000, City Council approved entering into an agreement with Shaw & Sons Concrete Contractors to perform terrazzo pavement and concrete curb repair. The following work has been completed:

• Removal of asphalt pavement and portions of the concrete curb
• Installation of the concrete curb
• Installation of the terrazzo pavement with sawcut pattern
• Raising the existing manhole to grade

 

Analysis:

Shaw & Sons deviated from the original scope by constructing the terrazzo paving and concrete curb in one pour rather than in two separate pours. Shaw & Sons saved money on forming, fees for ordering two different types of concrete in small amounts, and finishing the repair work one day early. Though the concrete curb is a little darker than regular concrete, it is still aesthetically pleasing as well as structurally sound. Rather than having Shaw & Sons redo portions of the repair, Staff made the decision to negotiate a credit. A sizeable credit of $6,000.00 was agreed upon.

The Pier Plaza pavement repair work was an incidental result of the restrooms sewer line installation; therefore the cost was absorbed by the Pier Renovation Sewer Funds.

 

Fiscal Impact :

The original contract amount was $19,771.00. With a $6,000.00 credit, Shaw & Sons Concrete Contractors completed the work for $13,771.00.

The $13,771.00 cost will be paid out of the Pier Renovation, Phase III Sewer Fund, as previously approved per Agenda Item 1o on August 8, 2000, (see attached). This reflects a savings of $6,000.00 from the original contract amount.

 

Acceptance of the work is in order.
