BACKGROUND:
In December 2020, the City of Rolling Hills Estates (RHE) approached Staff with the idea
of collaborating on rehabilitating Silver Spur Road between Hawthorne Boulevard and
Crenshaw Boulevard, which includes portions within the cities of RHE and Rancho Palos
Verdes (RPV). The proposed project consisted of replacing the existing surface asphalt
and pavement markings; repairing/replacing damaged curb, gutter, and sidewalk;
upgrading certain curb ramps; and other associated work.
RHE and Staff believed that a joint project would be more cost-effective due to economies
of scale, and would be less disruptive to traffic than separate projects by each city. RHE
agreed to serve as the lead agency because most of the project is in RHE, while RPV
would pay for work within RPV city limits, generally between Hawthorne Boulevard and
Drybank Drive.
Accordingly, Staff programmed a project and associated budget as part of the Fiscal Year
2021-22 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which was adopted by the City Council.
Because design work had not yet started, Staff estimated the cost based on historical
roadway rehabilitation data and assumptions about the amount of work that would be
needed. The total project cost was estimated to be $455,000 for RPV.
On November 11, 2021, the City Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) that defined the partnership agreement between RHE and RPV (Attachment B).
Key points in the MOU were as follows:
• RHE will contract for engineering, management, construction , and inspection
services
• RPV will make all decisions for the project portion in RPV
• RPV will reimburse RHE for actual project costs associated with project portion in
RPV only
• RPV will review bids for construction for the project portion in RPV, and if b ids are
higher than the engineer’s estimate, RPV may elect to:
o Not move forward with construction
o Reduce the scope of construction to fit the budget
o Increase the budget
• RPV will participate in plan reviews, construction inspections, and change order
authorizations for the project portion in RPV
DISCUSSION:
In accordance with the MOU, RHE procured an engineering firm that developed plans
and specifications for the project (Attachment A). Staff reviewed the plans and
specifications and provided comments. The plans and specifications were revised to
address most of Staff’s comments. To bring the project to construction as quickly as
possible and avoid prolonged exposure to inflation, some comments were left to be
addressed during construction based on field conditions.

On May 24, 2022, RHE issued an advertisement soliciting bids for construction of the
project. The project was advertised using a bid schedule for the segments in RHE (with
some of those being optional) and a separate bid schedule for the segments in RPV so
that costs could be apportioned to each city. The bid solicitation stipulated that the lowest
bidder would be the contractor with the lowest combined price for the RHE and RPV
components. This was done to avoid a scenario where no low bidder could be determined
because one company was the low bidder for the RHE segments and another for the RPV
segments.
Bid Analysis
Four bids were received by the deadline of June 16, 2022, with results as follow:
Contractor Name RHE Portion RPV Portion RHE and RPV Combined
Sequel Contractors $1,217,302 $732,167 $1,949,469
Hardy & Harper $1,360,000 $730,000 $2,090,000
Excel Paving $1,495,367 $623,151 $2,118,518
All American Asphalt $1,441,881 $715,870 $2,157,751
Upon opening the bids, it became clear to both RHE and RPV that the bids were higher
than each City’s cost estimate. In order to proceed with this joint project, the City Council
is being asked to approve an additional appropriation in the amount of $407,766 to the
original project budget of $455,000, for a total project cost of $888,766.
On June 28, 2022, RHE accepted the lowest bid, reducing the scope of their portion to
meet their budget constraints so that construction can move forward , contingent upon
RPV also accepting the lowest bid and providing the necessary funds for the RPV portion
(Attachment D).
Regardless of any cost estimate, as discussed in detail below, the City is not actually
paying more for the project because the price to build the project is the price that
contractors charge. A cost estimate is an attempt to predict what contractors will charge
to build something at some point in the future, whereas the bid results are the actuality of
what contractors will charge.
As noted in the bid table above, the lowest overall bidder was Sequel Contractors.
However, it was not the lowest bidder for the RPV portion of the project. Excel Paving
was the lowest bidder for the RPV portion only.
Upon initial review, it appears that RPV would be paying more to construct this project by
partnering with RHE because Sequel Contractors’ bid is the highest for the RPV portion.
Excel Paving’s bid is approximately $109,000 lower than Sequel Contractors’ for the RPV
portion. However, a detailed analysis of the bid results shows a more complex situation.
Each contractor listed costs for mobilization and traffic control (M&T) for each project
portion in their bid. Three of the contractors had 82% or more of their M&T costs allocated
to the RHE portion and 18% or less to the RPV portion. Sequel Contractors had 58%, or
3
$113,000, of its M&T costs allocated to the RHE portion and 42%, or $82,600, to the RPV
portion. It appears that three of the contractors generally placed the costs of M&T primarily
under the RHE portion, whereas Sequel Contractors disturbed the M&T costs more
evenly.
When excluding M&T, the cost distribution of the project is approximately 65% for the
RHE portion and 35% for the RPV portion. Staff expects that the cost distribution of M&T
would generally match the cost distribution without M&T. However, only Sequel
Contractors’ M&T cost distribution generally matches that of the project without M&T;
whereas Excel Paving had 92%, or $380,000, of its M&T costs allocated to the RHE
portion and 8%, or $31,000, to the RPV portion. Therefore, if RPV were to pursue its
portion as a separate bid, it is likely that the M&T costs for RPV would increase
significantly, probably more closely matching those of Sequel Contractor’s bid. This would
be expected to add somewhere in the range of $110,000 to a bid with an M&T distribution
similar to Excel Paving’s.
Additionally, if RPV were to pursue this project separately, the two projects would need
to be performed sequentially to coordinate the work of two separate construction
contracts. This likely means more traffic disruption and a longer construction schedule
than if the projects are done jointly.
Additional Appropriation
During the development of the FY 2021-22 CIP, Staff prepared a cost estimate for the
project based on historic roadway rehabilitation data as shown in Table 1. The costs
based on actual proposals/bids are also shown in Table 1. The proposal/bid totals are
$407,766 higher than the FY 2021-22 CIP estimate, primarily because the construction
bid is more than double the estimated amount.
Table 1 – Cost Estimate Compared to Proposal/Bid Amount
The construction bid is much higher than estimated because the cost estimate was
prepared based on historic data from a few years ago, but did not apply an inflation factor
to the year of construction, as was done for the other CIP projects per standard practice
for Public Works. Additionally, the estimate did not apply the appropriate contingency
percentage. The City’s Public Works practice is to apply a contingency of 30% when a
project is in early stages of development and then decrease the contingency to 10% as

the design is completed. This is done because design is a discovery process where more
is learned about a project as design progresses. During the process, more detail is
developed, which usually results in additional items being needed that were not captured
in prior iterations of the project. Finallyin the current bidding environment, it has been
particularly challenging to estimate construction costs for roadway projects because of
significant volatility in market conditions related to labor and crude oil — major
components of roadway project costs.
In this case, there were four bidders, which represents a competitive bid condition.
Additionally, all bids were within approximately 10% of each other, which indicates plans
were well understood by bidders and the low bid is likely an accurate portrayal of market
conditions.
In summary, regardless of the estimated cost, the number of bids received and the tight
grouping of the bids means that the market rate to build this project is as represented by
the low bid.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the City Council appropriate an additional $407,766 and proceed
to construction in partnership with RHE on the Silver Spur Road rehabilitation project per
the MOU signed on September 2, 2021.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
On June 28, 2021, the Rolling Hills City Council adopted Resolution No. 1284, assigning
$26,000 of its available Proposition C Transportation funds to the City of Rancho Palos
Verdes in support of the Silver Spur Road project between Drybank Drive and Hawthorne
Blvd. Their contribution supports improving and resurfacing a major art erial serving the
residents of Rolling Hills while meeting Proposition C eligibility requirements. Their
contribution is included in the budget figures presented in this staff report.
ALTERNATIVES:
In addition to Staff recommendations, the following alternative actions are available for
the City Council’s consideration:
1. Do not appropriate an additional $407,766 and direct Staff to solicit construction
bids for the project independently of RHE. This would require RHE to also re-solicit
construction bids independently, delaying construction for both.
2. Take other action as deemed appropriate.

Required Contractor’s License(s): Under Public Contract Code section 3300 and
Business and Professions Code section 7028.15(e), the City requires that the contractor
A-24
SPC22-08 A-2
possess a valid Class A contractor’s license at the time that the contract is awarded.
Failure to possess the specified license will render the bid non-responsive and will bar the
award of the contract to any bidder not possessing such license at the time of the award.
Failure of the bidder to obtain proper and adequate licensing for an award of a contract will
constitute a failure to execute the contract and result in the forfeiture of the security of the
bidder. (Public Contract Code § 20103.5.)
Required Contractor and Subcontractor DIR Registration: The City will accept bids only
from bidders that (along with all subcontractors listed) are currently registered and qualified
to perform public work pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5; provided, however, that if a
bidder is a joint venture (Business & Professions Code § 7029.1) or if federal funds are
involved in the project, then City may accept a non-complying bid provided that the bidder
and all listed subcontractors are registered at the time the contract is awarded. Information
on registration with the DIR is available at: https://efiling.dir.ca.gov/PWCR. This is a
separate requirement from the Contractors State License Board licensing requirement.
Form of Bid: Each bid must be submitted on the Bid Proposal and bid forms furnished by
the City of Rolling Hills Estates, and each bid must include all the items shown on these
forms. Substitute forms may be used if specified in this Notice. All bids must be submitted
in conformance with this Notice and with the instructions contained in Standard
Specifications for Public Works Construction, which by this reference is made a part of the
Notice Inviting Bids.
Prevailing Wage Laws: The successful bidder must comply with all prevailing wage laws
applicable to the project, and related requirements contained in the contract documents.
Copies of the general prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification, or
type of worker needed to execute the contract, as determined by Director of the State of
California Department of Industrial Relations, are on file at the City, and may be obtained
from the DIR website: http://www.dir.ca.gov/OPRL/DPreWageDetermination.htm. Upon
request, City will make available copies to any interested party. Also, the successful bidder
must post the applicable prevailing wage rates at the work site.
Payroll Records and Prevailing Wage Monitoring: This project is subject to prevailing
wage compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations.
(Labor Code § 1771.4.). Each contractor and subcontractor must keep an accurate payroll
record, showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight
time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and actual per diem wages paid to
each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other employee employed by the contractor or
subcontractor in connection with the public work. These records must be certified and
made available by the contractor as required by Labor Code section 1776. In the case of
state-funded public works projects, certified payroll reports must be provided to City on a
weekly basis. In the case of federally-funded public works project and in accordance with
29 C. F. R. § 5.5(a)(3), the contractor will be required to submit weekly payroll reports and
compliance statements for this project.
Substitution of Securities: In accordance with Public Contract Code section 22300,
substitution of eligible and equivalent securities for any moneys withheld to ensure
A-25
SPC22-08 A-3
performance under the contract for the work to be performed will be permitted at the
request and expense of the successful bidder. Such equivalent securities must be
deposited with City or with a state or federally chartered bank as the escrow agent who will
then pay such moneys to the contractor. Upon satisfactory completion of the contract, the
securities will be returned to the contractor. Securities eligible for investment include those
listed in Government Code section 16430, bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit,
interest bearing demand deposit accounts, standby letters of credit, or any other security
mutually agreed to by the contractor and City. The contractor will be the beneficial owner
of any securities used to secure its performance. Any escrow agreement will be
substantially similar to the form set forth in Public Contract Code section 22300.
Award of Contract. The contract for the work, if awarded, will be to the responsible bidder
submitting the lowest responsive bid. If the bid requires bidders to propose prices for
alternate bid items, the City’s selection of alternate bid items, if any, for determination of the
lowest priced bid and for inclusion in the scope of the contract to be awarded, will be in
accordance with the Instructions for Bidders.
Reservation of Rights: The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids, waive any

Bids must be submitted in writing on the Proposal forms provided by the AGENCY. All
information requested therein must be clearly and legibly set forth in the manner and form
indicated. The AGENCY will not consider any proposal not meeting these requirements.
PROPOSAL GUARANTEE
Proposals must be accompanied by a proposal guarantee consisting of a certified or
cashier's check or bid bond payable to the AGENCY in the amount not less than 10 percent
of the total amount bid. Any proposal not accompanied by such a guarantee will not be
considered. If a bidder to whom a contract is awarded fails or refuses to execute the
contract documents or furnish the required insurance policies and bonds as set forth in
those documents, the proposal guarantee will be forfeited to the AGENCY. The proposal
guarantees of all bidders will be held until the successful bidder has properly executed all
contract documents.
DELIVERY OF PROPOSAL
Proposals shall be enclosed in a sealed envelope plainly marked on the outside, "SEALED
BID FOR STREET RESURFACING ON VARIOUS STREETS FY 2021-22 IN THE CITIES
OF ROLLING HILLS ESTATES AND RANCHO PALOS VERDES- DO NOT OPEN WITH
REGULAR MAIL." Proposals may be mailed or delivered by messenger. However, it is the
bidder's responsibility alone to ensure delivery of the proposal to the hands of the
AGENCY'S designated official prior to the bid opening hour stipulated in the Notice Inviting
Sealed Bids. Late proposals will not be considered.
This is a joint project between the City of Rolling Hills Estates and the City of Rancho
Palos Verdes. The City of Rolling Hills Estates will be the lead AGENCY for the
project.
WITHDRAWAL OF PROPOSALS
A proposal may be withdrawn by a written request signed by the bidder. Such requests
must be delivered to the AGENCY'S designated official prior to the bid opening hour
stipulated in the Notice Inviting Sealed Bids. Proposals may not be withdrawn after said
hour without forfeiture of the proposal guarantee. The withdrawal of the proposal will not
prejudice the right of the bidder to submit a new proposal, providing there is time to do so.
IRREGULAR PROPOSALS
Unauthorized conditions, limitations, or provisions attached to a proposal will render it
irregular and may cause its rejection. The completed proposal forms shall be without
interlineations, alterations or erasures. Alternative proposals will not be considered unless

SPC22-08 B-2
specifically requested. No oral, telegraphic or telephonic proposal, modification, or
withdrawal will be considered.
TAXES
No mention should be made in the proposal of sales tax, use tax, or any other tax, as all
amounts bid will be deemed and held to include any such taxes which may be applicable.
DISQUALIFICATION OF BIDDERS
In the event that any bidder acting as a prime contractor has an interest in more than one
proposal, all such proposals will be rejected, and the bidder will be disqualified. This
restriction does not apply to subcontractors or suppliers who may submit quotations to
more than one bidder, and while doing so, may also submit a formal proposal as a prime
contractor. The successful bidder must be licensed in accordance with the provisions of
the Business and Professions Code and must possess a State Contractor License Class A
at the time this contract is awarded.
DISCREPANCIES AND MISUNDERSTANDINGS
Bidders must satisfy themselves by personal examination of the work site, Plans,
Specifications and other contract documents, and by any other means as they may believe
necessary, as to the actual physical conditions, requirements and difficulties under which
the work must be performed. No bidder may at any time after submission of a proposal
make any claim or assertion that there was any misunderstanding or lack of information
regarding the nature or amount of work necessary for the satisfactory completion of the job.
Any errors, omissions, or discrepancies found in the Plans, Specifications, or other
contract documents must be called to the attention of the AGENCY and clarified prior to the
submission of proposals.
EQUIVALENT MATERIALS
Approval of equipment and materials offered as equivalents to those specified must be
obtained in writing from the AGENCY prior to the opening of bids. Requests for
consideration of equivalents must be submitted in writing allowing sufficient time for
complete consideration of all specifications, samples, references, tests, and other details to
the full satisfaction of the AGENCY.
LEGAL RESPONSIBILITIES
All proposals must be submitted, filed, made, and executed in accordance with State and
Federal laws relating to bids for contracts of this nature whether the same or expressly
referred to herein or not. Any bidder submitting a proposal will by such action thereby
agree to each and all of the terms, conditions, provisions and requirements set forth,
contemplated, and referred to in the Plans, Specifications, and other contract documents,
and to full compliance therewith.
A-28
SPC22-08 B-3

least the minimum prevailing per diem wages as provided in Section 1773 and following of
the Labor Code for each craft, classification, or type of workman required as set forth by the
Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California.
AWARD OF CONTRACT
The award of contract, if made, will be to the lowest responsible bidder as determined
solely by the AGENCY. Additionally, the AGENCY reserves the right to reject any or all
proposals, to waive any irregularity, and to take the bids under advisement for a period of
60 days, all as may be required to provide for the best interests of the AGENCY. In no
event will an award be made until all necessary investigations are made to the

of this Contract (collectively, “Claims”). The Claims subject to CONTRACTOR’s duties to
defend and indemnify include, without limitation, all claims, actions, causes of action,
proceedings, suits, losses, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, liens, levies, and
associated investigation and administrative expenses. Such Claims also include defense
A-46
SPC22-08 D-3
costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, expert fees, court costs,
and costs of alternative dispute resolution. CONTRACTOR’s duty to defend is a separate
and distinct obligation from CONTRACTOR’s duty to indemnify. CONTRACTOR is
obligated to defend AGENCY in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings,
with counsel approved by AGENCY, immediately upon tender to CONTRACTOR of the
Claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is
established. An allegation or determination that persons other than CONTRACTOR are
responsible for the Claim does not relieve CONTRACTOR from its separate and distinct
obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final
judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an
obligation to provide independent defense counsel if CONTRACTOR asserts that liability is
caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of any AGENCY
indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the comparative
active negligence or willful misconduct of any AGENCY indemnified party, then
CONTRACTOR may submit a claim to AGENCY for reimbursement of reasonable
attorneys’ fees and defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of
the AGENCY indemnified party. CONTRACTOR agrees that its defense and
indemnification obligation under this article, includes the reasonable costs of attorneys’ fees
incurred by the AGENCY City Attorney’s office to monitor and consult with CONTRACTOR
regarding the defense of any Claims, including providing direction with regard to strategy,
preparation of pleadings, settlement discussions, and attendance at court hearings,
mediations, or other litigation related appearances. AGENCY will use its best efforts to
avoid duplicative attorney work or appearances in order to keep defense costs to a
reasonable minimum. For the purposes of this article, “AGENCY” includes AGENCY’s
officers, officials, employees and agents.
ARTICLE VII
The liability insurance coverage amounts must be:
Insurance Coverage Requirements Limit Requirements
Comprehensive General Liability $2,000,000
Product/Completion Operations $1,000,000
Contractual General Liability $2,000,000

SPC22-08 D-4

every employer to be insured against liability for workers’ compensation, or to undertake
self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that code and certifies compliance with
such provisions.

A-59
SPC22-08 1-4
Public Contract Code section 20104 and following, specifies required
provisions on resolving contract claims less than $375,000, which are set
forth below, and constitute a part of this Contract.
For the purposes of this section, “claim” means a separate demand by
Contractor of $375,000 or less for (1) a time extension, (2) payment or
money or damages arising from Work done by or on behalf of Contractor
arising under the Contract Documents and payment of which is not otherwise
expressly provided for or the Contractor is not otherwise entitled to, or (3) an
amount the payment of which is disputed by AGENCY. In order to qualify as
a claim, the written demand must state that it is a claim submitted under
Subsection 2-10.1 of the Contract and be submitted in compliance with all
requirements of this Section. Separate Contractor claims that together total
more than $375,000 do not qualify as a “separate demand of $375,000 or
less,” as referenced above, and are not subject to this Section.
A voucher, invoice, payment application, or other routine or authorized form
of request for payment is not a claim for purposes of this section. If such
request is disputed as to liability or amount, then the disputed portion of the
submission may be converted to a claim under this section by submitting a
separate claim in compliance with Contract Documents claim submission
requirements.
This section does not apply to tort claims, and nothing in this section is
intended nor may it be construed to change the time periods for filing tort
claims or actions specified by Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of Part 3 of Division
3.6 of Title 1 of the Government Code.
Claims Procedure under Public Contract Code § 20104 and following:
A. The claim must be in writing, submitted in compliance with all
requirements of the Contract including, without limitation, the time
prescribed by and including the documents necessary to substantiate
the claim. Claims must be filed on or before the day of final payment.
Nothing in this section is intended to extend the time limit or
supersede notice requirements for the filing of claims under the
Contract.
B For claims of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) or less, AGENCY will
respond in writing within 45 days of receipt of the claim, or AGENCY
may request in writing within 30 days of receipt of the claim, any
additional documentation supporting the claim or relating to any
defenses or claims AGENCY may have against Contractor. If
additional information is thereafter required, it must be requested and
provided in accordance with this section upon mutual agreement of
AGENCY and Contractor. AGENCY’s written response to the claim,
as further documented, must be submitted to Contractor within 15
A-60
SPC22-08 1-5
days after receipt of further documentation or within a period of time
no greater than taken by Contractor in producing the additional
information, whichever is greater.
C. For claims over Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and less than or
equal to $375,000: AGENCY will respond in writing within 60 days of
receipt of the claim, or AGENCY may request in writing within 30 days
of receipt of the claim, any additional documentation supporting the

against Contractor. If additional information is thereafter required, it
must be requested and provided in accordance with this section, upon
mutual agreement of AGENCY and Contractor; AGENCY’s written
response to the claim, as further documented, must be submitted to
Contractor within 30 days after receipt of further documentation or
within a period of time no greater than taken by Contractor in
producing the additional information, whichever is greater.
D. Meet and Confer: If Contractor disputes AGENCY’s written response,
or AGENCY fails to respond within the time prescribed above,
Contractor must notify AGENCY, in writing, either within 15 days of
receipt of AGENCY’s response or within 15 days of AGENCY’s failure
to timely respond, and demand an informal conference to meet and
confer for settlement of the issues in dispute. Upon demand
AGENCY will schedule a meet and confer conference within 30 days
for settlement of the dispute. Following the meet and confer
conference, if the claim or any portion remains in dispute, Contractor
may file a claim as provided in Chapter 1 (commencing with Section
900) and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 910) of Part 3 of
Division 3.6 of Title 1 of the Government Code. For purposes of those
provisions, the running of the period of time within which a claim must
be filed will be tolled from the time Contractor submits its written claim
as set forth in this section, until the time that claim is denied as a
result of the meet and confer process, including any period of time
utilized by the meet and confer process.
Certification:
A. The Contractor shall submit with the claim their and Subcontractors'
certifications under penalty of perjury that:
1. The claim is made in good faith.

the following paragraphs:
The required mixing/reaction time is hereby modified to 75 minutes minimum.
The minimum reaction period shall be the time from complete incorporation
of materials into the mix to the time that the asphalt-rubber meets all
specifications for reacted material. Reaction shall be considered complete
only after the second of two viscosity readings taken 15 minutes apart is less
than the first. The Engineer’s decision shall be final for determination of the
minimum reaction period.
All material shall be tested for viscosity and verified as to completer reaction
prior to transfer to any storage tank or use of the reaction tank for feet to the
hot mix plant. Material reacted lower than specified temperature, but above
185 degrees C (365 F), or transferred to a storage tank prior to completion of
reaction as specified, shall be reacted for a total period of 3 hours prior to
use. Any such transfer shall be described in the comments column of the
Asphalt Rubber Batch Log.
A-87
SPC22-08 2-5
Each batch of binder shall be tested for viscosity after the minimum reaction
time has passed and the following information shall be recorded:
1. Temperature of stored asphalt cement material at time of loading
2. Time at which the reaction tank is fully loaded
3. Tons of asphalt rubber added to the tank for the batch
4. Total asphalt rubber in the tank after loading
5. The beginning time of reaction (Fully loaded and above 375° F)
6. Binder temperature at time of sampling
7. Temperature of tested material
8. Viscosity reading
9. Time of viscosity test (All test results must be completed prior to use.)

possession a fax confirmation sheet with a time and date conforming to
specification. Under any circumstances, Engineer must be contacted for
clearance to pave.
203-11.5 Equipment for production of Asphalt-Rubber.
Add the following to Item C) of 203-11.5:
Reaction Tank. The asphalt-rubber material shall be held in a reaction tank
separate from the storage tank feeding the ARHM plant, until the reaction is
complete. The reaction tank shall have agitation sufficient to increase the
viscosity of the mixture to a peak viscosity reading at least 20 percent higher
than the viscosity reading of the material measured at a time that the material
otherwise meets specifications for reacted material. The time of reaction
may be extended as needed to produce this result. It shall be the
responsibility of the Contractor to demonstrate to the Engineer through
viscosity readings at appropriate times that the equipment conforms to these
requirements. If this cannot be demonstrated, the reaction time shall be 3
hours. Once established, the reaction time shall be the minimum time for
reaction unless there are changes in materials or equipment, in which case a
new reaction time shall be established per specifications. The Engineer's
decision shall be final.
A-88
SPC22-08 2-6
The reaction tank shall have a functioning paper circle chart thermometer
device, which shall record tank temperatures whenever asphalt rubber is in
any stage of production. Seven days before production of asphalt rubber
starts, the Contractor shall provide the Engineer approximately double the
number of charts estimated to be needed to produce the necessary binder
quantity. These charts will be numbered and signed by the Engineer and
returned to the Contractor prior to start of production. These signed and
numbered charts shall be used throughout production of the asphalt rubber
binder. Charts shall be used in the consecutive order as numbered by the
Engineer beginning with number one, and shall be returned weekly after use
to the Engineer. Charts will be identified with the date they were used by the
Contractor at time of installing on the equipment, and shall be identified as to
the tank to which they were attached. Production of asphalt rubber shall be
terminated if this procedure is not followed and will not be restarted until
Contractor demonstrates to the Engineer that it is capable of complying with
this requirement.
At the start of each production day, the paper chart shall be replaced with a
new signed, dated and numbered sheet, the lead scribe shall be sharpened
or ink well filled, and the circle chart shall be calibrated against a sample of
material drawn early from the first batch of the day. Any calibration
adjustments shall be recorded in the appropriate space provided on the batch
log sheet. A spare functional circle chart device shall be at the plant at all
times for immediate installation should failure occur on a circle chart device
being used. Calibration shall be performed as part of such installation. The
lack of a functional circle chart device on the reaction tank shall be cause to
terminate production of asphalt rubber binder. A blunt lead scribe or low ink,
or a paper chart used on a prior day will be considered to render the device
non-functional.
Storage Tank. After a complete reaction is verified by viscosity readings
acceptable to the Engineer, the material shall be held in a storage tank that is
fully isolated from material that is not fully reacted. This tank shall be the only
tank feeding the ARHM plant. No material shall be transferred to the storage
tank feeding the plant until reaction is complete in the reaction tank.

302-9 ASPHALT-RUBBER HOT MIX (ARHM).
302-9.1 General.
Add the following:
All PCC surfaces, to be crossed by trucks used to haul ARHM, that are within
500 feet of the work limits shall be covered with sand or other durable
covering prior to applying tack coat.
Contractor shall have sufficient power brooms on site during all periods of
distribution and spreading to provide for cleanup of haul routes and work
areas. Power broom shall provide miscellaneous cleanup of ARHM spoils as
directed by the Engineer.
Power brooms used ahead of paving operations after acceptance of cold
milling shall only sweep areas that are accepted as completed for cold
milling. Power brooms shall not be operated more than 80 percent full of
sweepings. Power brooms that have swept areas not accepted as
A-98
SPC22-08 3-9
completed for cold milling shall not enter onto areas that are accepted as
completed for cold milling
302-9.3 Distribution and Spreading.
Add the following:
The temperature of ARHM shall be high enough upon delivery that pavement
temperature after two passes with the breakdown roller exceeds 290 degrees
Fahrenheit (143 degrees Celsius).
To avoid picking up loose rock in the overlay area, the tires of all trucks must
be lightly oiled with linseed oil or soybean oil or approved equal. Diesel fuel
will not be allowed on the project at all for oil down of any equipment.
Raking of ARHM shall be eliminated as much as possible. ARHM material
shall not be cast across the mat under any circumstance. Raking shall be just
enough to set up edges for uniform joins without casting material. Screed
controls shall be the predominant means of controlling material at joins. In
areas where paving machines cannot be used due to space constraints,
material shall not be thrown by shovels. Material shall be removed directly
from the paving machine hopper and shall be placed directly in its final
location, to be distributed with minimal raking. Material may be dumped
directly from a truck, but further material distribution shall be by shovel
directly to its final location with minimal raking. A small rubber tire tractor
with a screed type attachment may be used to spread a pile dumped from a
truck, but raking shall be minimized after spreading.
The paving machine screed shall not be pulled across an area already paved
with ARHM, even adjacent to narrow areas to be paved. Such narrow areas
shall have ARHM distributed by methods specified by shovel or rubber tire
tractor, unless the adjacent area has hardened enough and will not be
significantly marred by passing the screed over it. Even if hardened
adequately, Contractor shall spread rock dust by hand tools to avoid
cohesion of the ARHM in the screed to the existing surface of such areas of
freshly cured ARHM.
Contractor shall maintain a functioning infrared heat measurement device in
close proximity to each paving machine at all times. The infrared device shall
be correlated by thermometer to the actual mat temperature prior to use.
The correlation difference shall be applied to all readings thereafter.
Contractor shall provide a pavement temperature reading, with an infrared
heat measurement instrument, when requested by the Engineer.
Inaccessibility of a heat measurement shall be cause for termination of
paving operations.
A-99
SPC22-08 3-10
Transverse cold joints shall be provided such that longitudinal joints are not
left exposed at the end of the workday.
302-9.4 Rolling.
Add the following:
Initial breakdown rolling shall be vibratory. Rolling in vibratory mode shall not
be performed after ARHM material temperature falls below 290 degrees F
(143 degrees C), due to disturbance of the bonds beginning to set up in the
binder at lower temperatures.
An intermediate roller of the same or greater width than the breakdown roller
shall be rolling directly behind the breakdown roller at all times, and paving
shall cease if intermediate rolling is terminated for any reason. Additional
intermediate rollers may be necessary depending on production rates.
Once a rolling pattern is elected by Contractor, the rolling pattern shall
remain consistent, unless conditions change and/or a modified rolling pattern
is needed to conform to specification.
All finish rolling shall be performed by a separate finish roller.
To ensure optimum quality control, the use of more than one paver will
require notification 3 days in advance to the Engineer, and will generally
require one foreman, one sweeper, and a full complement of rollers per
Subsection 302-5 of the Standard Specifications and this Subsection 302-9.5
for each paving machine.
An extra breakdown roller shall be on site at all times, free of defects.
Add the following subsections:
302-9.4.1 Density and Smoothness. Density and smoothness shall
conform to Subsection 302-5.6.2, except the second and third
paragraph of Subsection 302-5.6.2 shall not apply to ARHM.
The compaction after rolling shall be 95 percent of density obtained
with the California Kneading Compactor, California Test 304 as
modified and measured in conformance to this Subsection 302-9.4.1.
The field density of compacted ARHM shall be determined by:
1) A nuclear asphalt testing device, calibrated in conformance
with California Test 375, except as modified in this Subsection
A-100
SPC22-08 3-11
302-9.5.1, in the field designed to measure the density of
pavement of the thickness being constructed; or
2) Core with density determined as follows:
a) Saw the ARHM lift of pavement from the top of the core
approximately perpendicular to the axis of the core, just above
any underlying pavement or as necessary to obtain a clean flat
surface at the bottom of the sample.
b) Clean and dry the sample as described in ASTM 1188.
c) Perform California DOT Test 308 Method A step a.
d) Prior to proceeding to steps 308A b., 308A c., 308A d.
and 308A e., place the core, top surface down, firmly into a flat
pan of hot liquid paraffin approximately 1/4 inches deep. Allow
the sample and paraffin to cool to firm solid state and remove
the sample from the pan by cutting around the perimeter. Trim
the edges of paraffin parallel to the side of the sample cylinder,
and weigh the cylinder to obtain:
G = Mass in grams of level sealed paraffin-treated specimen in
air.
e) Perform 308A b., 308A c., and 308A d on the sample
from D) above.
f) Complete the remainder of Test 308A, except replace
the formula in 308A e. with the following:
Bulk Specific
Gravity =
A
(D – E) – (D – G) / F
In case of dispute, 1) shall be used, except Contractor may elect to
use 2), but all costs for such procedures shall be borne by the
Contractor to provide the full set of coring, tests and documentation in
conformance with the Standard Specifications, except all test methods
shall be modified as specified in these Special Provisions. Also,
Contractor shall notify the Engineer at least 3 days in advance of
coring operations, and immediately after core testing is complete
Contractor shall deliver cores to the Agency for verification.
Nuclear test procedures, including correlation with core densities,
shall be in conformance with California Test 375, except as follows:
A-101
SPC22-08 3-12
If a test section is placed and compacted for that purpose, rolling shall
be provided as follows: 1) 2 passes with a vibratory breakdown roller
above 290 degrees F; and 2) 4 passes with a static roller above 200
degrees F. Core locations for correlation with cores shall be selected
based on appearance of relatively tight surface texture, and the test
strip shall be selected on this basis. If a test location is determined to
have a significantly open texture relative to other areas within the test
strip, the location shall not be used. This selection criteria are not to
be considered significant to the outcome of, but only as a guideline
towards obtaining samples that are relatively well compacted to yield
results with minimum standard deviation. The locations shall be well
clear of grade breaks and joints. One core centered on the gauge will
be used instead of two at each location. Use method 2) in this
Subsection 302-9.5.1 to determine density of cores. Surface voids
shall not be filled with sand.
Contractor will be notified in writing at least 5 days in advance of such
correlation testing and will be invited to have a nuclear gauge onsite to
correlate a second gauge. If not independently calibrating at that
time, Contractor shall bear the full expense of performing correlation
for his nuclear gauge under the specified procedures, but shall notify
the City 5 days in advance of such correlation testing, such that the
City can correlate with the Contractor’s gauge, if Contractor disagrees
with City’s test results.

302-9.4.2 Compaction Payment Reductions.
Based on laboratory tests on AC pavements revealing a highly
significant loss of life span for each 1 percent reduction of compaction,
and the well known catastrophic effect of oxidation and stripping of
asphalt products due to interconnected voids that develop below 95
percent compaction, and the extreme expense of removing and
replacing pavement not compacted to the specified minimum, a
nominal deduction of payment will be applied for under-compacted
ARHM pavement. The bidder in submitting a bid fully accepts the
provisions in this Subsection 302-9.4.2 and agrees that the nominal
payment deduction is acceptable and reasonable for these purposes.
Payment reductions will be applied to ARHM compacted less than 95
percent of maximum density, the specified minimum, and greater than
91.9 percent of the maximum density based on nuclear testing with
Part 3 Test Site Selection of California Test 375 modified as follows:
A lot will be one day’s production or other lesser area of paving as
determined by the Agency to be deficient in terms of compaction, and
a pull will be the width between joints or edge of pavement as the lot
is placed.
Test site selection will conform to California Test 375 Part 3, except
the number of tests shall be the area of the lot in square feet divided
by 400 and any test site within .5m of a grade break or pavement joint
shall be relocated laterally towards the center of the pull to .5m from
such joint or grade break.
The mathematical mean average of percent of maximum density
represented by all these tests shall be calculated, except any test
results outside of this mean plus two standard deviations based on all
tests, shall be rejected. The mean average shall be calculated directly
from the remaining values. A compensation reduction in conformance
with Table 302-9.4.1A will be applied to the contract unit price for
ARHM for material within any lot determined to be below minimum
relative compaction, except any lot with tests indicating compaction
91.9 percent or less shall be removed and replaced at Contractor’s
expense.
302-9.7 Rock Dust Blotter.
Add the following:
A-103
SPC22-08 3-14
Lack of uniformity of application of rock dust shall be cause to terminate
paving operations. Rock dust blotter shall not be applied until intermediate
rolling is complete, except as approved by the Engineer based on a fine
uniform layer of rock dust, or at major intersections and access points.
302-9.9 Payment.
Add the following:
Payment for Construct ARHM Overlay (Thickness per Plan) shall be paid
at the contract price per Ton (TN) and shall include, but not limited to, full
compensation for furnishing all labor, materials, tools, equipment,
transportation, tack coat, and other incidentals for doing all work, complete,

Engineering and Construction in Fiscal Year 2021-22
Project Location Map Background and Justification:
Good road conditions with smooth pavement are expected by the City’s
residents and businesses.
Timely maintenance reduces the overall lifecycle costs of roadway
infrastructure.
Road conditions are assessed through a triennial inspection and assigned
a calculated Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of Very Poor (0‐40),
Poor (41‐59), Fair (60‐74), Good (75‐85) or Very Good (86‐100)
This section of road was inspected in 2019 and had segments with PCI
ratings ranging from 66 to 70 (all within the “Fair” category).
This project will be included in a larger project, in which the City
will partner with Rolling Hills Estates and a segment in their city, to
realize cost savings through economies of scale.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 28, 2022
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DAVID WAHBA, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT & PUBLIC WORKS
DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: REQUEST TO AWARD A PUBLIC WORKS CONTRACT FOR THE
FISCAL YEAR 2021-22 & 2022-23 STREET RESURFACING PROJECT
TO SEQUEL CONTRACTORS INC. IN THE CITIES OF RHE & RPV.
OVERVIEW
The following is a request for the City Council to award the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021-22 and
2022-23 street resurfacing Public Works Contract to Sequel Contractors, Inc., in their bid
amount of $1,949,469, plus a 10% contingency ($194,947), for a grand total of
$2,144,416. This is a joint project with the City of Rancho Palos Verdes (RPV), which
represents their portion of the project at $732,167, plus a 10% contingency ($73,217), for
a total of $805,384. Awarding of this Public works Contract requires approval from the
City of RPV. Lastly, due to the higher costs bid for this project, staff is recommending
that Strawberry Lane (Additive Alternative Bid Schedule C - $151,855) be omitted from
the project at this time and considered in FY 2023-24.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On April 26, 2022, the City Council authorized staff to solicit bids for the annual FY 2021-
22 and 2022-23 street resurfacing project. Bids were solicited on May 24 and were due
and opened on June 16, 2022 at City Hall. Four bids were received as follows (from low
to high):
1.Sequel Contractors $2,101,324
2.Hardy & Harper $2,280,000
3.Excel Paving $2,295,930
4.All American Asphalt $2,327,149
The project was bid using three schedules (A, B & C). Schedule A includes the streets
of Silver Spur Rd. (between Crenshaw Blvd. and Drybank Dr.), Dapplegray, Buckskin and
Sorrell Lanes. Schedule B includes the portion of Silver Spur Rd. in RPV (between
Drybank Dr. and Hawthorne Blvd.). Schedule C is an additive alternative for Strawberry
Lane. The project was bid such that the successful bidder was required to have the lowest
AGENDA
JUNE 28, 2022
ITEM NO. 9A
D-1
Staff Report – June 28, 2022 City of Rolling Hills Estates –
2
bid for both Schedule A and Schedules A+B. Schedule C was bid as an additive
alternative that can be accepted or rejected by the City depending on overall project costs
and not required to be the lowest bid by itself in order for the project to be awarded.
The following chart shows Sequel Contractors bid breakdown and the engineer’s estimate
of projected costs for the project prepared by Willdan Engineering.
Sequel Contractors Bid Amount
SCHEDULE A (RHE streets) $1,217,302
Engineer’s Estimate $1,023,378
SCHEDULE B (RPV portion Silver Spur) $732,167
Engineer’s Estimate $537,673
SCHEDULE C (Strawberry Ln.) $151,855
Engineer’s Estimate $111,259
TOTAL A+B $1,949,469
Engineer’s Total Estimate $1,561,051
TOTAL A+B+C $2,101,324
Engineer’s Total Estimate $1,672,310
The engineer’s estimate by Willdan also applied a 10% contingency to account for price
increases. Accordingly, Willdan’s total estimate for the project was $1,839,540, which
was still 14.25% below the lowest bid by Sequel Construction at $2,101,324.
Willdan has completed their bid analysis (attached) for the four bids received on the
project and finds Sequel Contractors to be the lowest most responsive bidder, although
they had a small mathematical error in their total bid calculations that put them over by
$1.00. Given this very minor mathematical error, still making them the lowest bidder,
Willdan has advised that there is no need to disqualify them.
Given the higher than expected bid pricing, staff is recommending that Strawberry Lane
(Bid Schedule C) be deferred at this time until the following fiscal year and be completed
along with the re-paving of Palos Verdes Drive East.
The following funding sources have been identified in the budget (combined for FY 2021-
22 and 2022-23 to carry out this project.
FUNDING SOURCE AMOUNT
SB 1 $270,000
General Fund $200,000
Measure M $254,139
Measure C $298,987
Measure R $224,240

$91,666
TOTAL: $1,339,032

Staff Report – June 28, 2022 City of Rolling Hills Estates –

As stated above, the portion of this project in RHE (excluding Schedule C at this time) is
proposed by Sequel Contractors at $1,217,302. Staff is recommending that the project
include a 10% contingency ($121,730) for potential cost overages, for a grand total
amount of $1,339,032. Thus, in the budgeted amounts as stated above, the project,

In order to carry out this project to repave all of Silver Spur Rd. between Crenshaw Blvd.
And Hawthorne Blvd., staff had developed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between the cities of RHE and RPV, which was approved and fully executed by both cites
in September of 2021. RHE is taking the lead on the project and RPV has paid for their
portion of engineering design services and project management by Willdan in the agreed-
upon amount of $42,506.
RPV staff will be taking this proposed bid by Sequel Contractors in the amount of
$732,167, for their portion of Silver Spur Rd. to their City Council for approval on July 19.
Staff has received verbal support from RPV staff for their portion of the project,
recognizing that it is 24% higher than the engineer’s estimate of $591,440, by $140,727.
It is also recommended that RPV also add a 10% contingency to Sequel’s bid, which
would require an approved total amount of $805,384 by RPV City Council to carry out this
project. If approved by RPV Council, payment to RHE for their portion of the project is
due in full prior to commencement of construction.
Note that if RPV does not approve their portion of the project, then the bids will need to
be rejected and the project re-bid without RPV’s portion of the project (Bid Schedule B).
If approved by both RHE and RPV City Councils, the project will be able to commence in
late July and should be completed by the end of September.

1. Accept the bid from Sequel Contractors Inc. in the amount of $1,217,302, plus a
