City of RANCHO PALOS VERDES MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS MICHAEL THRONE, P.E., DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS li-0 DECEMBER 16, 2014 SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR THE ACCESSIBILITY TRANSITION PLAN IMPLEMENTATION PHASE 1-A (SUPPORTS 2014 CITY COUNCIL GOAL, INFRASTRUCTURE) REVIEWED: CAROLYNN PETRU, ACTING CITY MANAGER~ Staff Coordinator: Lucho Rodriguez, Associate Engineer ~ RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Approve Plans and Specifications for the Accessibility Transition Plan Implementation Phase I-A project. 2. Award a construction contract for the Accessibility Transition Plan Implementation Phase I-A project to DASH Construction Company, Inc. in the amount not to exceed $94,400 and authorize staff to spend an additional 10% contingency in the amount of $9,440 for unforeseen conditions for a total authorization of $103,840. 3. Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the construction contract with DASH Construction Company, Inc. F-1 BACKGROUND To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, the City Council adopted the Citywide Accessibility Self Evaluation Report on June 4, 2013, which identified physical barriers restricting access by persons with disabilities to the programs, activities, and services offered by the City, and a Transition Plan (TP) to schedule and fund implementation of corrective work to achieve ADA compliance. Capital improvements projects typically include ADA compliance elements when applicable. Some of the ADA projects completed during the last several years include: City Hall Parking Lot ADA Compliance, Hesse Park Restroom ADA Compliance, Hesse Park Playground ADA Compliance, Community Development Department Restrooms Improvements and ADA Compliance, Eastview Park Playground and ADA Compliance, Ryan Park Restrooms and ADA Compliance, Abalone Cove Restrooms and Parking Lot Improvements, and Cable TV Building Restroom ADA Compliance. Additionally, the City's Arterial Roadway Rehabilitation and the Residential Streets Rehabilitation Programs include ADA compliance elements (such as curb ramps and audible pedestrian signals) in their scope of work. On October 15, 2013, the City Council Awarded a contract to Creative Design Associates, Inc. (CDS) to provide plans, specifications and cost estimate for City of Rancho Palos Verdes Accessibility Transition Plan (TP) Implementation Phase I. The Accessibility (TP) Implementation Phase I-A project focuses on items identified as "Potential Safety Hazard" and "Severe I Complete Barrier to Access" at the Ladera Linda Community Center, Robert E. Ryan Park and Point Vicente Interpretive Center. The accessibility improvements to Hesse Park, which include accessible parking and pathway to the building (work that is not related to the parking lot project), will be accomplished in the near future as a separate project (Phase 1-B). Scope of Work Phase I-A At the Ladera Linda Community Center, the improvements consist of installing or replacing concrete ramps for access at the playgrounds, and adding an accessible playground platform to the playground equipment and a rubber play surface at the playground. At Ryan Park the improvements include railing and guard rails at ramps and walkways where needed and adding a concrete walk and landing for access to the classroom. At the Point Vicente Interpretive Center, the improvements include installing ADA compliant automatic door openers at meeting rooms, adding wheelchair accommodations at exterior seating areas, adding detectable warning surfaces at curb ramps and re-striping the crosswalk to the parking lot. F-2 DISCUSSION The project was advertised and sealed bids were received and opened at 11 :00 a.m. on November 25, 2014. Five construction firms submitted bids for the project. DASH Construction Company, Inc, was determined to be the lowest responsive bidder with a bid in the amount of $94,400. The bids received ranged from 31.6% below the engineer's estimate to 48.8 % above the engineer's estimate. As shown on the following table summarizes the bids received: Accessibility Transition Plan Implementation Project Bid Opening Results November 25, 2014 Bidder Bid DASH Construction Company, Inc. $94,400 Torres Construction Corp . $98,800 Engineer's Estimate $130,000 El Camino Construction and Engineering $138,050 MG Enterprises $166,000 Gamma Builders $193 ,389 Staff has checked the references of DASH Construction Company, Inc. and found that they have performed satisfactorily on their previous jobs. They possess the required current Contractors' Class B license. ALTERNATIVE An alternative to awarding the construction contract tonight is to reject all construction bids and re-bid the project. Staff does not recommend this alternative because it may delay the schedule by three months, and re-bidding the project may not necessarily result in lower bids. CONCLUSION Awarding of this contract will implement Phase I-A of the Transition Plan as a direct ADA compliance project. Public Works will continue to use the opportunity presented in other capital improvement projects to increase accessibility for all users . F-3 FISCAL IMPACT The total cost of the project including engineering and construction is $144,320 as shown on the following table. A budget of $400,000 was appropriated in the FY13-14 CIP for completion of the Accessibility Transition Plan Phase I (account number 330- 3036-461-73-00).

P-6 F-19 STATEMENT ACKNOWLEDGING PENAL AND CIVIL PENALTIES CONCERNING THE CONTRACTORS' LICENSING LAWS [Business & Professions Code 7028.15] [Public Contract Code 20103.S] I, the undersigned, certify that I am aware of the following provisions of California law and that I, or the entity on whose behalf this certification is given, hold a currently valid California contractor's license as set forth below : Business & Professions Code 7028.15 : (a) It is a misdemeanor for any person to submit a bid to a public agency in order to engage in the business or act in the capacity of a contractor within this state without having a license therefore, except in any of the following cases: (1) The person is particularly exempted from this chapter . (2) The bid is submitted on a state project governed by Section 10164 of the Public Contract Code or on any local agency project governed by Section 20104 [now ' 20103.5) of the Public Contract Code. (b) If a person has been previously convicted of the offense described in this section, the court shall impose a fine of 20 percent of the price of the contract under which the unlicensed person performed contracting work, or four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500), whichever is greater, or imprisonment in the county jail for not less than 10 days nor more than six months, or both. In the event the person performing the contracting work has agreed to furnish materials and labor on an hourly basis, "the price of the contract" for the purposes of this subdivision means the aggregate sum of the cost of materials and labor furnished and the cost of completing the work to be performed. (c) This section shall not apply to a joint venture license, as required by Section 7029.1. However, at the time of making a bid as a joint venture, each person submitting the bid shall be subject to this section with respect to his or her individual licensure. (d) This section shall not affect the right or ability of a licensed architect, land surveyor, or registered professional engineer to form joint ventures with licensed contractor to render services within the scope of their respective practices. (e) Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a bid submitted to a public agency by a contractor who is not licensed in accordance with this chapter shall be considered non- responsive and shall be rejected by the public agency. Unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, a local public agency shall, before awarding a contract or issuing a purchase order, verify that the contractor was properly licensed when the contractor submitted the bid . Notwithstanding any other provision of law, unless one of the foregoing exceptions applies, the registrar may issue a citation to any public officer or employee of a public entity who knowingly awards a contract or issues a purchase order to a contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this P-7 F-20 chapter. The amount of civil penalties, appeal, and finality of such citations shall be subject to Sections 7028.7 to 7028.13 inclusive. Any contract awarded to, or any purchase order issued to, a contractor who is not licensed pursuant to this chapter is void. (f) Any compliance or noncompliance with subdivision (e) of this section, as added by Chapter 863 of the Statutes of 1989, shall not invalidate any contract or bid awarded by a public agency during which time that subdivision was in effect. (g) A public employee or officer shall not be subject to a citation pursuant to this section if the public employee, officer, or employing agency made an inquiry to the board for the purposes of verifying the license status of any person or contractor and the board failed to respond to the inquiry within three business days. For purposes of this section, a telephone response by the board shall be deemed sufficient. Public Contract Code 20103.5 : In all contracts subject to this part where federal funds are involved, no bid submitted shall be invalidated by the failure of the bidder to be licensed in accordance with the laws of this state. However, at the time the contract is awarded, the contractor shall be properly licensed in accordance with the laws of this state. The first payment for work or material under any contract shall not be made unless and until the Registrar of Contractors verifies to the agency that the records of the Contractor's State License Board indicate that the contractor was properly licensed at the time the contract was awarded. Any bidder or contractor not so licensed shall be subject to all legal penalties imposed by law including, but not limited to, any appropriate disciplinary action by the Contractor's State License Board. The agency shall include a statement to that effect in the standard form of prequalification questionnaire and financial statement. Failure of the bidder to obtain proper and adequate licensing for an award of a contract shall constitute a failure to execute the contract and shall result in the forfeiture of the security of the bidder.
