City Manager Approval: __________
TOPIC: GRAND AVE CYCLE TRACK PROJECT
SUBJECT: ACCEPT COMPLETION OF THE GRAND AVE CYCLE TRACK PROJECT, CITY
PROJECT NO. 11393, AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY CLERK TO FILE THE NOTICE
OF COMPLETION
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept completion of the Grand Ave Cycle Track Project and authorize the City Clerk to file the Notice
of Completion.
BACKGROUND:
The Grand Avenue Cycle Track Project constructed a new two-way, protected cycle track and widened
sidewalk on the east side of Grand Avenue between Second Street and Fourth Street. This project is
ranked third in Group F, Canal Connections, in the City’s 2018 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
(“BPMP”) and is a critical trail extension project on the San Francisco Bay Trail. The new cycle track
provides a safe and separated bicycle connection for residents and visitors of East San Rafael to the
downtown business district and the San Rafael Transit Center. Project improvements included
upgrades to traffic signals, curb ramps, and landscaping as well as road resurfacing. Construction for
this project was coordinated with the Third Street Rehabilitation and Safety projects.
On August 21, 2023, the City Council awarded the construction contract to Ghilotti Bros., Inc. in the
amount of $1,432,887 and approved a construction contingency of $217,113 for a total of $1,650,000.
Construction began on December 11, 2022, and was completed on July 15, 2024.
ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to Civil Code Section 3093, the City is required to record a Notice of Completion upon City
acceptance of the improvements. This acceptance initiates a period during which project subcontractors
may file Stop Notices seeking payment from the City from the funds owed to the Contractor for the project
work.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Grand Ave Cycle Track project was funded through a combination of grants from various sources,
consisting of the Bay Trail Grant from the Association of Bay Area Governments, the Local Partnership
Program from Caltrans, and the Transportation Fund for Clean Air program from Transportation Authority
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Page: 2
of Marin, and funds from the Gas Tax Fund (#206). The total cost for completion of this project is
approximately $1,820,000, which includes about $180,000 for design and permitting and about
$1,580,000 for construction and construction support.
In accordance with project specifications, the City retained five percent of the full amount due on each
progress payment to Ghilotti Bros., Inc. resulting in a total construction retention of $157,531.59. The
final payment and release of retention will be made following 35 days after recordation of the Notice of
Completion.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Accept completion of the Grand Ave Cycle Track Project and authorize the City Clerk to file the Notice
of Completion.
