Notice of Completion (Page A-1) BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: Construction of the Palos Verdes Drive East Traffic Safety (Guardrails) Project was authorized by the City Council on February 7, 2017, in the amount of $268,794. The project mainly consisted of installing and repairing damaged guardrail at various locations along Palos Verdes Drive East. The following table summarizes project expenditures: 1 Palos Verdes Drive East Traffic Safety (Guardrails) Council Authorization $268,794.00 Construction Costs ($169,987.70) Construction Management and Inspection ($11,840.00) Total Project Savings $86,966.30 The project was completed on time and within budget, resulting in a total project savings of $86,966.30. Some of the project savings were a result of removing several signs from the project area in an effort to preserve the character of Palos Verdes Drive East and to address concerns with view impacts and sign blight. These signs were either removed or relocated. Other safety options, like reflective guardrail tape, are being considered to replace the visually -intrusive chevron signs. The project has been completed by ACE Fence Company in accordance with the project specifications and construction contract. Therefore, Staff recommends accepting the project as complete and filing a Notice of Completion with the Los Angeles County Registrar -Recorder's Office. If no claims are filed within 35 days after recordation, the City will release the 5% retention payment in the amount of $8,499.39, and upon the contractor posting an acceptable warranty bond, notify the surety company to exonerate the Performance Bond. ALTERNATIVE: In addition to the Staff recommendation, the following alternative action is available for the City Council's consideration: Discuss and take other action related to this item. 2 RECORDING REQUESTED BY: The City of Rancho Palos Verdes WHEN RECORDED MAIL TO: r City Clerk Name City of Rancho Palos Verdes Street 30940 Hawthorne Blvd. address Rancho Palos Verdes, CA City 90275 State Zip I_ J - — – — Space above this line for recorder's use NOTICE OF COMPLETION Notice pursuant to Civil Code Section 3093, must be filed within 10 days after completion.

The "owner" who must file for record a notice of completion of a building or°other work of improvement means the owner (or his successor in interest at the date the notice is filed) on whose behalf the work was done, though his ownership is less than the fee title. For example, If A is the owner in fee, and B, lessee under a lease, causes a building to be constructed, then B, or whoever has succeeded to his interest at the date the notice is filed, must file the notice. If the ownership is in two or more persons as joint tenants or tenants in common, the notice may be signed by any one of the co-owners (in fact, the foregoing form is designed for giving of the notice by only one co -tenant), but the names and addresses of the other co- owners must be stated in paragraph 5 of the form. Note that any Notice of Completion signed by a successor in interest shall recite the names and addresses of his transferor or transferors. In paragraphs 3, 5 and 6, the full address called for should include street number, city, county, and state. As to paragraphs 7 and 8, this form should be used only where the notice of completion covers the work of improvement as a whole. If the notice is to be given only of completion of a particular contract, where the work of improvement is made pursuant to two or more original contracts, then this form must be modified as follows: (1) Strike the words "A work of improvement" from paragraph 7 and insert a general statement of the kind of work done or materials furnished pursuant to such contract (e.g., "The foundation for the improvements"); (2) Insert the name of the contractor under the particular contract in paragraph 8. In paragraph 8 of the notice, insert the name of the contractor for the work of improvement as a whole. No contractor's name need to given if there is no general contractor, e.g. on so- called "owner -builder jobs." In paragraph 9, insert the full, legal description, not merely a street address or tax description. Refer to deed or policy of title insurance. If the space provided for description is not sufficient, a rider may be attached.
