File No.: 16.13.06
SUBJECT: ADOPT PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF 41 CURB
RAMPS AND CURB AND GUTTER RECONSTRUCTION AND AUTHORIZE
THE CITY CLERK TO CALL FOR BIDS.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Plans and Specifications.
BACKGROUND: The City's Five Year Capital Improvement Program provides $1,500,000 for Street
Resurfacing and the City plans to resurface 43 roadways within San Rafael later this year.
Per the Americans with Disability Act, resurfacing of street roadways is considered a roadway alteration
and requires the installation of curb ramps, if none currently exists, on all corners at each roadway
intersection. Resurfacing of the forty-three roadways planned for later this year requires installation of
forty-one curb ramps and replacement of approximately 110 linear feet of existing curb and gutter.
The design of the project was completed by City of San Rafael Department of Public Works engineering
staff and has been signed and approved by the Public Works Director. A copy is available at the City's
Clerk's office for review.
ANALYSIS: Adoption of the project plans and specifications is necessary for the plans to go out to bid
and the construction of the project to begin. Adoption of these project plans and specifications is also
necessary for the roadway resurfacing project to proceed. Construction is anticipated to start in August of
2010 and finish in September of 2010. City staff will inspect the project.
FISCAL IMPACT: The estimate for the construction of the project is $200,000. The complete cost of the
construction will be funded through the Street Resurfacing project allocation.
OPTIONS: 1. Adopt the plans and specifications for the project and authorize the City Clerk to call for
bids; or
2. Reject the plans and specifications and direct the project team to stop the work on the
project; return all unspent funds; and stop work on the Street Resurfacing Project.
ACTION REQUIRED: "Adopt Plans and Specifications for construction of the 41 curb ramps and related
curb and gutter reconstruction, and authorize the City Clerk to call for bids."
