STAFF REPORT

The plans for improvement of Del Rosa Avenue, between
Date Street and Carpenter Street, direct the Contractor to remove
a portion of the existing pavement. During the removal opera-
tion, pavement up to 15 inches in thickness was encountered.
A request for additional compensation was submitted by
the Contractor, due to the extra work involved in breaking up,
loading and disposing of the thicker than normal pavement. A
price of $3 ,706 . 36 was negotiated to compensate the Contractor
for removing the 434 tons of asphalt concrete, that was in excess
of a normal thickness of 7 inches. In addition, a price of
$3, 630 . 00 was negotiated to compensate the Contractor for the
extra 30 hours to break up the thicker than normal pavement.
The low bid contained a lump sum price of $2 , 200 . 00 for
roadway excavation. Since the pavement was thicker than
expected, less dirt had to be excavated to reach the design
subgrade elevation. Therefore, the negotiations with the Con-
tractor included a reduction of this lump sum price for roadway
excavation, from $2 , 200 . 00 to $1 , 100 . 00 .
Striping was to be done under Bid Item No. 15 , for the
low bid lump sum price of $2, 000. 00 . Traffic signals were to be
installed, at the intersection of Del Rosa Avenue and Date
Street, by the developer of an adjoining parcel. Striping was
included in this project, but was different than the striping
shown on the plans for the improvement of Del Rosa Avenue.
The Contractor was, therefore, directed not to install
the striping. The low bid price of $2 , 000 for striping was
included in the change order negotiated with the Contractor as a
credit.
A proposed change order was accordingly prepared for the
following items:
1 . Remove Extra Thick Asphalt Concrete $ 3 , 706 . 36
2 . Additional Effort to Break Asphalt Concrete 3 , 630 . 00
3. Decreased Quantity of Roadway Excavation (11100 . 00)
4 . Credit for Deletion of Striping (2, 000 . 00)
TOTAL NET ADDITIONAL COST $ 4 , 236 . 36

Approval of this change order would have increased the
contract price from $40 , 001 . 15 to $44 , 237 . 51 . However, the
Contractor declined to sign this change order. A claim for
additional compensation of $12 , 432 . 06 was submitted by Ranco' s
attorney.
Our City Attorney' s office has negotiated a settlement
with the Contractor' s attorney. This settlement is for a
reduction of $550 . 00 in the credit for roadway excavation,
instead of $1 , 100 . 00 originally negotiated with the Contractor.
In view of the considerable staff time already invested
in negotiations and responding to the claims by the Contractor' s
attorney, we recommend that the settlement of an additional
$550 . 00 be accepted, in order to allow this project to be closed.
