Agenda Item Brief:

This agenda item is for the City Council to consider awarding a contract in the amount of $423,281.47 to Vega Asphalt Paving Inc. for the Pedestrian Improvements project.  The project scope of work entails replacement of the existing curb, gutter, sidewalks, driveways, concrete and asphalt paving on G Street.



Background:

The 2017 CDBG funded G Street Concrete and Street Improvement Project is based upon the City’s approved U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Action Plan (AAP FY 2017/18) and in accordance with the Five Year Consolidated Plan (CP) for 2015-2019.

 

The existing concrete and roadway infrastructure in this area was constructed in the early 1950’s. The asphalt paving on G Street is in a deteriorated state and structural failures, cracks and surface deterioration warrant the need for reconstruction. Additionally, concrete walkways and curbs have deteriorated over time and are in need of replacement. The existing sidewalks have exposed aggregates, missing and cracked panels, and trip hazards resulting in a sidewalk that does not function as designed. The curb and gutter within this area has deteriorated as well and does not drain as designed in many areas.  Street trees causing much of the damage are scheduled for removal with this project.



Analysis:

The scope of work for this project involves the removal and replacement of existing curb, gutter, and sidewalk. Existing catch basins and service laterals will be replaced. The roadway will be pulverized, repaved, and new striping will be installed. Funding for this project is provided by a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) FY 2017/2018 funding allocation.

The project was advertised in the Reno Gazette Journal on January 25, 2017 and copies were distributed to local plan rooms.  Four bids were opened at City Hall on February 8, 2017. Bid results ranged in cost from $423,281.47 to $488,444.00 (see recap of the Bids below):
