BACKGROUND:
On January 16, 2025, based on the findings of a traffic study and the recommendations
of the Traffic Safety Committee (TSC), the City Council approved the installation of left -
turn signal arrows for Hawthorne Boulevard at Eddinghill Drive/Seamount Drive. The
Hawthorne Boulevard at Eddinghill/Seamount Left Turn Signal Project (Project) was
approved as part of the FY 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) (Project No.
8809).
The Project included the installation of a northbound and southbound left turn signal and
associated upgrades to traffic signal equipment, as well as related roadway
enhancements at the intersection. The Project is expected to enhance safety of vehicles
turning left from Hawthorne Boulevard onto Eddinghill Drive and Seamount Drive.
The Project design process included extensive community engagement. A list of
interested constituents was created, and regular updates were provided to those
constituents. Additionally, Public Works sought the input of area residents, particularly
with respect to required street lighting, to ensure that an aesthetically appropriate and
context sensitive design was developed.
DISCUSSION:
Following a competitive bidding process, on March 4, 2025, the City Council awarded a
construction contract for the Project to Alfaro Communications Construction Inc. (ACCI)
in the amount of $570,968, with a contingency of 10%, or $57,097, for a total not-to-
exceed amount of $628,065. (Attachment B)
Construction was completed in December 2025 for a total cost of 600,763, which is
$27,301.60 under the approved total construction budget, inclusive of contingency.
The contract includes a 12-month warranty period requiring the contractor to remedy any
defective work. The project area will be monitored for the duration of the warranty period.

The filing of the NOC allows the City to close out its contract with Alfaro Communications
Construction Inc. (ACCI) and release the associated retention within a reasonable
timeframe relative to the date all construction contract work was completed, and the City
took beneficial use of the facility. A financial summary of the project is shown in Table 1
below.
Table 1: Hawthorne Boulevard at Eddinghill/Seamount Left Turn Signal Project Financial Summary
CONCLUSION:
The construction contractor, Alfaro Communications Construction Inc. (ACCI), has
completed all work in accordance with the plans, specifications, and construction contract.
Therefore, Staff recommends accepting the project as complete and filing a NOC 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, and upon the contractor posting an
acceptable warranty bond, notify the surety company to exonerate t he Performance
Bond.
ALTERNATIVES:
In addition to Staff recommendation, the following alternative action s are available for the
City Council’s consideration:
1. Direct Staff not to file the NOC for Hawthorne Boulevard at Eddinghill/Seamount
Left Turn Signal Project.
2. Take other action, as deemed appropriate.

Description of Construction Change Order
Install longer mast arms on the traffic signal poles at the south east and north west
corners of the Hawthorne/Eddinghill intersection.
Justification
Gas and water utility conflicts identified during potholing resulted in the traffic signal
pole #1, at the southZHst corner of the intersection, to be relocated. This relocation of
the pole required a longer mast arm IURPIHHWWRIHHWto better align the signal

Cost Analysis
The contractor provided quotations from the supplier agent for the 40-foot and 45-foot
long mast arms, showing the added cost for the longer mast arm. The difference in cost
for the longer mast arm is reasonable. Tax has been added to the material cost and a
markup of 15% in total has been added in conformance with Section D-3 of the general
provisions of the specifications.

This Change Order is to approve authorizing the Contractor to utilize a specialized subcontractor to perform the excavation of six (6) pole
foundations out of a total of eight (8). The Contractor was able to reach the desired depths in two foundations. It has been determined the
required excavation is beyond the scope of existing contract and the considered incidental work items. Due to the subsurface conditions and
the specialized nature of the required equipment, the Prime Contractor has proposed engaging a subcontractor with the necessary expertise
to complete the work. The estimated cost is based on a 3-working day excavation work to be performed. The final cost will be based on
actual Time and Materials and will be captured under an updated Change Order (if needed) after the work is completed.

FROM: ALAN BRAATVEDT, SUNBEAM CONSULTING
DATE: DECEMBER 10, 2025
SUBJECT: RPV Project 8857 – HAWTHORNE BLVD. AND EDDINGHILL
DRIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL MODIFICATION
CONSTRUCTION CHANGE ORDER NUMBER: 5
Description of Construction Change Order
Credit for Bid Item 202 in the amount of $33,550 will reduce the contract amount by $33,550
and create a credit that will be applied to the contingency. The Change Order is also to
approve extending the completion date by 1 Working Day (WD) from 12/17/25 to 12/18/25.
Justification
Bid Item 202 – “Temporary Traffic Signal” is for the installation and maintenance of a fully
operational temporary traffic signal system. This would have been used to control traffic during
the construction of new traffic signal pole foundations and new pole installation. That temporary
traffic signal system includes temporary signals, wiring and a controller that is compatible with
the existing system.
It was not used because the potholing for the foundations revealed site conditions which led the
Engineer of Record (EOR) to revise several pole locations, which eliminated conflicts with
existing signal poles and therefore meant that the contractor was able to install all foundations
and new poles without the need for a temporary traffic signal system.
Due to the late delivery of the Traffic Signal Controller by the vendor, the additional one WD is
needed to complete the Controller replacement.
Cost Analysis
$33,550 is the bid amount being credited.
Schedule Analysis
The Change Order will extend the completion date by one Working Day (WD) from 12/17/25 to
12/18/25.

DRIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL MODIFICATION
CONSTRUCTION CHANGE ORDER NUMBER: 6
Description of Construction Change Order
Cost for additional potholing required to verify traffic signal pole foundation depths and
locations with any potential underground conflicts prior the start of fieldwork and the
procurement of signal poles and mast arms.
Justification
The Contract includes two separate Notices to Proceed (NTP). NTP1 authorized the
Contractor, Alfaro Communications Construction Inc. (ACCI), to complete submittals and
procure materials. NTP2 authorized the commencement of field construction activities.
ACCI prepared its bid assuming potholing for traffic signal foundations would occur during
the construction phase of the project, following mobilization under NTP2. Under this
approach, ACCI would pothole, verify utility conflicts, and immediately proceed with
foundation excavation using the same mobilized resources.
During the procurement phase under NTP1, the Engineer of Record recommended
potholing and clearance of the signal pole foundation locations prior to approving the
signal pole submittals. This verification was to confirm that the proposed foundation
locations were free of utility conflicts and to validate the required mast arm lengths.
Signal poles and mast arms have an approximate six-month lead-time, making early
verification critical to avoid procurement delays and further construction delays.
Although potholing was performed during the design phase, those investigations were
based on utility markings, which are only approximate underground utility locations. Due
to this uncertainty, ACCI was directed to perform potholing during NTP1, prior to NTP2, to
confirm actual utility conditions and determine whether pole relocations or longer mast
arms were required.
In compliance with this directive, ACCI potholed and excavated all eight signal pole

foundation locations identified in the contract plans. The results of this early potholing
revealed utility conflicts, requiring the relocation of five signal poles and the use of longer
mast arms at two locations. These design revisions were incorporated into the plans, and
the mast arm modifications were addressed separately under Change Order No. #1.
The potholing work performed during NTP1 was completed using a dedicated crew over
four days. Excavations were backfilled using the excavated material temporarily paved
with cold-patch asphalt.
Upon issuance of NTP2, approximately six months later, ACCI mobilized for field
construction and was required to re-excavated all eight pole locations. Five locations were
new due to pole relocations, and three original locations, previously potholed and
backfilled, were re-excavated by hand in compliance with State law. Each location was
hand-excavated to a depth of 4-feet using shovels, jackhammers, and wedging tools, after
which auguring was performed to reach full foundation depth.
Cost Analysis
ACCI submitted a Time & Materials (T&M) claim in the amount of $13,382.06 for the
potholing work performed during NTP1. Sunbeam Consulting, the City's Construction
Manager, reviewed the T&M tickets, verified labor hours against certified payroll records,
and evaluated equipment and material charges. Based on this review, Sunbeam
Consulting determined the allowable cost to be $11,940.24.
Schedule Analysis
No additional working days have been requested for this activity.

RESPONSE:
The purpose of this Change Order Request is to formally explain our position regarding the additional
costs incurred.
As you know, the City directed Alfaro Communications (ACCI) to pothole the foundation locations to
identify any potential conflicts prior to our mobilization to the job site and before a notice to
proceed with early mobilization was issued . As I have explained to you on numerous occasions,
ACCI’s bid included one mobilization to the project site. The directive to perform potholing ahead of
time resulted in additional, unanticipated costs that were not included in our original estimate.
These extra expenses stem from the potholing work and other related items that were required to be
completed outside of the planned mobilization sequence and loading plan.
All excavations for foundations are required by state law to be potholed to clear them before excavation,
whether previously potholed or not, so there was no advantage to ACCI for this potholing done prior to
the NTP".
Please see the attached T&M detailing the additional costs associated with this work.

CHANGE ORDER MEMORANDUM
TO: ALI ZAGHARI, PROJECT MANAGER
FROM: ALAN BRAATVEDT, SUNBEAM CONSULTING
DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2026
SUBJECT: RPV Project 8857 – HAWTHORNE BLVD. AT
EDDINGHILL/SEAMOUNT LEFT TURN SIGNAL
CONSTRUCTION CHANGE ORDER NUMBER: 7
Description of Construction Change Order
The change order authorizes payment for addional work and materials required to address
field condions, a design error, and ADA compliance issues encountered during construcon.
The change order includes the following items:
1. Addional sidewalk replacement
2. Addional curb and guer replacement
3. Addional Item 604 – Pedestrian Push Buon Posts (PPB)
4. Time and Materials to chip down foong encroaching into the right-of-way
5. Replacement of Pedestrian Push Buon Posts
6. Installaon of curb/retaining wall at the boom of slope on the west side of the
intersecon
Justification
1. Addional Sidewalk Replacement
Sidewalk adjacent to the newly install contract sidewalk was found to be broken and/or not ADA
compliant in three of the eight connecons to exisng sidewalk. To ensure compliance and
connuity, removal and replacement were extended by:
• 17 feet by 4 feet (68 sf) on Hawthorne at the northwest corner
• 3 feet by 4 feet (12 sf) on Seamount at the northeast corner
• 10 feet by 4 feet (40 sf) on Hawthorne at the southwest corner
2. Addional Curb and Guer Replacement
The plans indicated curb and guer replacement on the south side of Eddinghill that ed into
exisng curb and guer at a point that would have resulted water ponding and improper
drainage. This issue was resolved by extending curb and guer removal and replacement by and
addional 27 feet.
3. Addional Pedestrian Push Buon Post (PPB)

RPV Project 8857 - Hawthorne Blvd at Eddinghill/Seamount Left Turn Signal
Construction Change Order Number 7
February 2, 2026, pg. 2
Both signal poles at the northwest corner were relocated due to obstrucons. Pole #3 was
relocated further west to accommodate an exisng gas line that was not known before
construcon due to marked up utilities on the roadway not being accurate, and pole #4
further north to avoid boulders in the foundaon which were not known before construcon
due to being located underground and not being found during inial potholing. The
addional PPB was required as the signal pole mounted push buons would be beyond the
ADA regulated distance from the curb ramp unless relocated from the original design.
4. Chipping Down Encroaching Foong
A private property wall foong at the southwest corner of the intersecon encroached into the
public right-of-way and was higher than the adjacent new sidewalk. This created a tripping
hazard and reduced sidewalk width. The concrete foong was chipped down to eliminate the
hazard and allow construcon of the sidewalk to its full width.
5. Replacement of Pedestrian Push Buon Posts
The contractor (ACCI) purchased pedestrian push buon posts with an overall height of 42”,
consistent with the plans and approved submial. During installaon, ACCI discovered that the
posts were too short to accommodate the push buon assembly while meeng ADA height
requirements. The EOR acknowledged that ACCI had purchased the posts per the plans and
directed that they be replaced. To avoid project delay, ACCI immediately installed taller posts
that were sourced from another project and ordered expedited replacement posts, to arrive
before they were required for that project.
6. Installaon of Header Curb Behind Sidewalk
The plans did not account for the steep slopes behind the sidewalk improvements on the west
side of Hawthorne. In the field, it was determined that a header curb was necessary at the back
of walk to contain the undercut slopes. The curbs were formed, poured, stripped, and finished
concurrently with the sidewalk installaon, minimizing added costs.
Cost Analysis
1. Items 1 and 2 – Sidewalk and Curb & Guer Replacement
The contractor submied detailed daily cost breakdowns to establish actual unit costs, which
were then applied to the addional quanes. Sunbeam Consulng, the City’s Construcon
Manager, reviewed the methodology and costs, found them reasonable, and confirmed the
resulng unit costs compare favorably with Southern California regional averages for similar
work (Aachment A).
2. Item 3 – Addional PPB (Item 604)
The contract unit price for Bid Item 604 was applied to the addional PPB installed to meet ADA
requirements.
3. Item 4 – Chipping Down Foong
The work required slightly more than two hours and was monitored by the Inspector. Prevailing
wage rates and applicable markups were applied to determine the total cost.

Order Memo[Template].docx
4. Item 5 – Replacement PPB Posts
ACCI originally purchased three posts per the plans; however, they were too short and did not
meet ADA requirements. To avoid delays, ACCI installed longer posts from another project and
ordered three replacement posts. The change order is the actual current cost for the
replacement poles per the aached invoice , with mark-up. Sunbeam researched recent bids for
PPB posts, which showed the range of material only costs for each post is $894 to $1500 (see
Email from Sunbeam containing summary from online research aached). The contractor’s price
of $856 is close to the lowest price in the range. No addional labor costs are included, as
installaon is covered under the original bid item. The three unused posts will be returned to
the City.
5. Item 6 – Header Curb To Retain Slope Behind Sidewalk
Installaon required two dedicated workers for four hours to form, pour the concrete, strip the
forms, and finish the curbs. This work was performed concurrently with sidewalk construcon.
Sunbeam Consulng performed an independent cost assessment of the proposed change order
items and found the costs to be reasonable and consistent with the Change Order Requests.
Sunbeam recommends payment of the summary of tasks as listed below:
1. Addional sidewalk replacement: $2,823.96
2. Addional curb and guer replacement: $2,363.58
3. Addional item 604 – Pedestrian Push Buon Posts (PPB): $1,118.75
4. Time and Materials to chip down foong: $299.47
5. Replacement of Pedestrian Push Buon Posts: $2,568.08
6. Added curbs behind sidewalk on the west side of Hawthorne: $1,167.731.
Total cost for this change order: $10.341.57
Schedule Analysis
None of these changes required additional contractual time and so there was no effect on the
Project Schedule.

ATTACHMENT A
Cost Comparisons from Comparable Unit Costs for Header
Curbs and Sidewalk Replacement taken from AI Research
The following rates are only for the installation of sidewalk. The change order cost includes for
the demolition and disposal of the existing sidewalk and so is within the ballpark costs.
____________________________________________________________________________
Installed Sidewalk (Concrete) – Public Works
On public works contracts in California, sidewalk work is almost always bid as a unit price per
square foot (SF) of concrete sidewalk installed, including all labor, materials, tools, equipment,
forming, finishing, curing, and incidental work — and must pay prevailing wage rates per
California law.
Based on available engineer’s estimates on public works bids (e.g., state/local projects):
Concrete sidewalk, 4-inch thick (public work estimate):
Typically ~$15 per SF engineer estimate for sidewalk installation in prevailing-wage
public projects (used by agencies in their budget guides).
Converted to linear feet for a typical 5-ft walk:
$15/SF × 5 ft width ≈ $75 per linear foot installed
(This is just a baseline installed item; actual bid prices can vary higher or lower
depending on scope and conditions.)
What This Means for Southern California Public Projects
In a prevailing-wage environment in Southern California (e.g., city/county sidewalk
improvement programs):
Installed concrete sidewalk (prevailing wages, public contract quality) — ~ $12–$22 per SF
is a reasonable planning range.
Segments with traffic control, stormwater features, driveways, curb transitions, or
difficult access tilt toward the higher end.
Docusign Envelope ID: A7FA831F-C3C6-4D5D-841C-958B3A0EAEFB
C-61
__________________________________________________________________________
The following are 2024 rates for the installation of header curbs. The curbs installed on this
project were complex due to the steep slope behind, limiting access, and on a curve, with other
restraints. Note: This is to establish a ballpark comparison with the actual hours witnessed for
the dedicated workmen for the specific tasks.
____________________________________________________________________________
Here are actual recent Los Angeles County public works bid prices you can use as real
prevailing-wage market data for header curb and curb ramp work, specifically for ADA
ramps (which includes curb & gutter/header work associated with ramp installs):
LA County Bid Item Unit Prices (Prevailing-Wage Public Works)
From Los Angeles County Department of Public Works bid history data (recent projects):
Concrete Curb (header/curb & gutter)
PCC Curb & Gutter (various types): ~ $45–$72 per LF (recent 2024 project averages)
Some variability by project and type, but $50–$70/LF is a current realistic range.
Curb Ramps
PCC Curb Ramps unit price:
o ~ $1,500–$2,150 per CY on a 4/23/2024 project (quantity small)
o ~ $680–$1,400+ per CY on a 3/11/2025 project, depending on low bidder and
ramp details
Bid summaries also show a separate Curb Ramp Case (modification/detail) line item
with lump prices from ~$3,500 to ~$9,750 on county contracts, depending on
complexity.
What This Means for Header Curb at a Curb Ramp
In LA County public works bidding, items you’ll typically see related to a curb ramp include:
PCC Curb & Gutter (header) — unit cost in the mid-$40s to low-$70s per linear foot.
Curb ramp concrete (measured in cubic yards) — significant cost per cubic yard,
often several thousand dollars per ramp when volume totals are converted.
Modified curb ramp case/detail — sometimes separately bid as a lump sum because
geometry or special forming adds time and cost.
Interpretation for Estimating
When estimating relatively complex header curb segments associated with a curb ramp on a
prevailing-wage LA County project:
Docusign Envelope ID: A7FA831F-C3C6-4D5D-841C-958B3A0EAEFB
C-62
Header/curb work itself: plan on ~ $45–$70/LF (installed) as a baseline from recent bid
history.
Concrete ramp portion: the ramp element (which most bidders price by cubic yard)
tends to be substantial — costing hundreds to over a thousand dollars per CY
installed.
If the header has complicated return geometry or unique forming , expect additional
effort and potentially a special line item at a premium (as seen in bids).

I have just checked on prices using AI which show the cost charged to ACCI ($670) is below
current market prices, where the low end cost is $900. See below:
For a traA ic signal project in Los Angeles County , the unit cost that agencies estimate for
pedestrian push button posts (the pole and possibly basic mounting hardware — not
including the actual push button or installation labor) varies based on recent county bid
history:
Typical Estimated Cost Ranges (based on LA County Public Works bid documents)
Pedestrian push button post: roughly $894 – $1,500 per each in recent bids. (LA
County Public Works)
A separate bid history shows typical prices around about $1,200 – $1,300 each as
the bid history average. (LA County Public Works)
Note: These are unit prices from county contract unit price data — what contractors
have bid on public projects — and do not include:
The pedestrian push button assembly/device itself (which is additional).
Foundation work, wiring, installation labor, or signal controller integration.
Example from actual LA County project bid docs
One recent bid list shows the pedestrian push button post priced at:
o $894 to $1,500 each, depending on the bidder. (LA County Public Works)
What about the pedestrian push button unit?
If you need to purchase the pedestrian push button hardware (the actual button
assembly that mounts on the post), typical oA-the-shelf part prices in general
markets are on the order of hundreds to a few thousand pesos/dollars retail (e.g.,
~$150–$1500+ per unit in general online listings), though municipal procurement
