ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT

MEETING DATE: 2/25/2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent – Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Zachary Meyer, Public Works Director
DATE: 1/29/2026
SUBJECT: Contract Change Order Nos. 32 and 39 to Agreement No. 2024-235 (7th Movement) with Granite Construction Company (increasing compensation by $108,000.00; revised not to exceed $28,034,329.43) for the Centennial Corridor EB58 to NB99 Loop Connector Project. (Wards 1 & 2)

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommend approval of the change orders.

BACKGROUND:

The 7th Movement Project proposes to construct a new freeway connector ramp from eastbound State Route (SR) 58 freeway to northbound SR 99. At the SR58/SR99 Interchange, construct a new connector starting west of SR 99, on the south side of 58 with a bridge widening over SR 99, a new bridge spanning over Wible Road, and connecting to northbound S R 99. This project also includes the construction of a bike path from Commerce Drive to California Avenue with a pedestrian bridge over the Carrier Canal, permanent closure of the southbound SR 99 to Stockdale Avenue off -ramp, drainage improvements for the Elcia Drive and Real Road intersection, and installation of permanent barrier at the Ming Avenue to southbound SR 99 on -ramp. This Project was awarded in September of 2024 and has an estimated completion date of August of 2026.

Change Order No. 32 provides compensation to the contractor for the repair of two crash cushions along northbound SR 99 and a soft stop barrier rail on southbound SR 99. All three locations were damaged due to collisions by the traveling public. This change order results in an estimated increase of $56,000.00.

Change Order No. 39 provides compensation to the contractor for the removal and disposal of unforeseen buried manmade objects including abandoned electrical facilities in conflict with a new drainage system within the MI-8 gore area as well as anticipated drainage system conflicts at Elcia Road. This change order results in an estimated increase of $55,000.00.
