Hermosa Beach Pier Renovation - Approval of Plans and Specifications



Recommendation:


It is recommended that City Council:


  1. Approve the construction documents for the Hermosa Beach Pier Renovation Project (CIP 98-620) as designed by Harding Lawson Associates.


  1. Authorize the advertisement for bids for the construction of the Hermosa Beach Pier Renovation.


Background:


The Hermosa Beach City Council, at it's May 12, 1998 meeting, approved the phase change which provided for construction of the structural repair of the pier while the architectual design was being completed. City Council also awarded the construction management contract for that phase to Concept Marine at that meeting.


Analysis:


Harding Lawson & Associates has reworked the plans and specifications to provide for the structural renovation of the pier. As part of that work staff requested that an additional survey of the structure be performed to insure that major changes in the condition of the pier had not occurred during the three year period since the last survey was performed. The new survey revealed that while some additional deterioration had occurred none was so severe as to suggest a total design change. Mostly what was evidenced was an increase in the amount of spall repair which would be necessary.


Staff also directed Harding Lawson to include removal of the restroom/baitshop structure at the end of the pier into this phase of the work. Removal of this building will allow the deck surfaces in this area to be upgraded and will provide a pad area which could be leased for future development.


The plans and specifications have been reviewed thoroughly by the construction management firm, Concept Marine, and by City staff and are considered to complete and ready for bid. Copies of the plans are available for review in the Public Works /Engineering offices.


Fiscal Impact


The fiscal year 98/99 budget for the Hermosa Beach Pier Renovation Project(CIP 95-620) is $903,000. The final engineer's estimate is $890,665.
