repaired at various locations throughout the City.The City is sub-divided into seven
maintenance zones and as requests are received regarding uplifted and/or damaged
sidewalk throughout the year,these locations are logged and a database of repair areas is
maintained until the quantity of repairs is sufficient to initiate the project.
ANALYSIS

the 11 bids received.The following table summarizes the bids received:

performance on jobs of similar size and scope to be satisfactory.Mora's Equipment and
Construcfion,Inc.has completed several similar-scale projects,including recent completion
of similar sidewalk repair projects in San Dimas,Moreno Valley,and Chino Hills.Their bid,
bonds,and insurance documents are in order and their contractor's license is current.
Project Inspection
To ensure first-class work,materials,and workmanship during construction,project
inspection services are needed to oversee construction activities and verify specification
compliance.Staff solicited proposals from several firms that have offered similar types of
professional services for the City in the past and Charles Abbott and Associates was
selected based on their qualifications and prior experience on past similar City projects.The
cost for this project's inspection services will be approximately $20,000.

increase in bids.
