Subject: Adoption of Plans, Specifications and Contract Documents and Authorization to Advertise for Bids for Phase 2 of the Barrio Street Lighting Project
District: 1
Reco
mmended Action
Adopt a resolution adopting the plans, specifications and contract documents and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise for bids for Phase 2 of the Barrio Street Lighting Project.
Executive Summary
The Barrio is the City of Carlsbad’s oldest neighborhood and home to the Senior Center, Harding and Pine community centers, Chase Field, Pine Avenue Community Park, a community garden, and ballfields used by residents from throughout the city.
The Barrio Street Lighting Project, Capital Improvement Program Pr oject No. 4013, provides enhanced safety and livability in this neighborhood consistent with the values emphasized in the Village & Barrio Master Plan, which the City Council adopted on July 24, 2018, and amended in 2019, 2021 and 2023. Phase 1 of the project, which was focused on streetlights instead of pedestrian lights, has been completed.
Phase 2 of the project focuses on adding new pedestrian lights to enhance pedestrian visibility and safety while creating a welcoming streetscape during evening hours.
The City Council’s adoption of these plans, specifications and contract documents is required under Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.080(E) – Construction Projects, because the project will cost more than $220,000 and is estimated to have a total construction cost of $3,585,370.
Staff recommend that the City Council adopt the plans, specifications and contract documents for the project, and authorize the City Clerk to advertise for construction bids.

Explanation & Analysis
Streetlights – Phase 1
Thirteen new streetlights were added to the Barrio in 2021-22 as part of Phase 1 of the Barrio Street Lighting project. Locations were selected based on prior community input acquired during development of the Village and Barrio Master Plan, technical analysis, city engineering standards and lighting guidelines for areas with little to no existing streetlights.
Streetlights were mounted on higher, 24-foot new poles or existing utility poles to ensure street crossings and intersections are well lit for drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians.
New pedestrian lights – Phase 2
Over 100 new pedestrian-scale lights are proposed throughout the Barrio to enhance sidewalk illumination and improve safety for people walking after dark. • The new lights are considered “pedestrian lights,” rather than streetlights. • They are smaller than the existing streetlights, on shorter 17-foot poles and not as bright.
• The lights are light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and will have a warmer color than the lights in the Village and the Barrio’s existing streetlights while producing the same amount of brightness.
• Based on community feedback, the city will use the same style of lights that are currently used in the Village.

Community feedback
The project was developed as part of the Village & Barrio Master Plan, which included significant input from the community. Since that time, staff have kept the community informed about the project and invited feedback, as outlined below:
• On Sept. 17, 2019, staff provided an informational presentation to the City Council describing the project status and an anticipated timeline for the project. • In 2022, the city gathered additional community input to help understand where more lighting was needed.
• Most recently, as part of the Phase 2 design, staff notified affected property owners, business owners, residents and others who may be interested in the project of the proposed locations through a direct mailer. The mailer, which was in English and Spanish, was also left at the front door of properties where construction of the lighting poles would require permission for right of entry. Staff also placed copies at all city facilities in the Barrio. Community members were invited to contact the city’s project manager with questions or concerns. Staff also notified those who signed up to receive emails about project updates and posted on Nextdoor.
Ultimately, pedestrian light locations were chosen based on community input and technical lighting studies evaluating darkness levels, while ensuring the preservation of the area's large trees.
On Feb. 3, 2025, the Traffic Safety & Mobility Commission voted to support staff’s recommendation to adopt the plans, specifications and contract documents for Phase 2 of the project. Exhibit 4 is the minutes from this meeting.
Federal grant
The city collaborated with U.S. Rep. Mike Levin in 2021 to secure up to $5 million in federal funding, of which $4 million has been set aside for construction of the Barrio Traffic Circles project and $1 million for construction of the Barrio Street Lighting project. This funding will help offset the cost of construction.
On June 20, 2025, the California Department of Transportation authorized the city to proceed with advertising the project for construction bids.

Fiscal Analysis
The project’s budget includes $1 million of federal grant funding. Additional sufficient funding has been previously appropriated to this project from gas tax, TransNet1 local and general capital construction funds.
The available funds and estimated costs for the projects are shown in the following table:
Environmental Evaluation
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, or CEQA, and the Environmental Protection Act, the project was previously evaluated in the Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration State Clearinghouse (Final IS/MND SCH No. 2016021056), dated April 2018, as part of the City of Carlsbad Village & Barrio Master Plan. The Final IS/MND evaluated the potential environmental effects of the project components described in the Carlsbad Village & Barrio Master Plan. The project is within the scope of the Final IS/MND, and no further CEQA documentation is required under CEQA guidelines Section 15162. All applicable mitigation measures contained in the prior environmental document have either been satisfied previously, or will be incorporated into the project, or are conditions of approval for the project.
The project is exempt from the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA, review as outlined in NEPA Regulation 23, which applies to federally funded projects receiving less than $5 million or with a total estimated cost of not more than $30 million. Caltrans’ determination of exclusion is recorded in a categorical exclusion determination form dated May 5, 2023.
Additionally, the categorical exclusion determination was revalidated on May 21, 2025, to verify the environmental documents and decisions remained valid.

Upon the City Council’s adoption, the City Clerk will advertise a notice to contractors inviting bids to construct the project. Staff will evaluate the bids received and identify the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
Staff will then return to the City Council with a recommendation to award a construction contract to the identified bidder, which is expected to be in fall 2025. The construction contract for the project provides 12 months to complete the project. Construction is expected to be completed by fall 2026.

2-3 SUBCONTRACTS.
2-3.1 General. Each Bidder shall comply with the Chapter of the Public Contract Code including Sections 4100 through 4113. The following excerpts or summaries of some of the requirements of this Chapter are included below for information:
The Bidder shall set forth in the Bid, as provided in 4104:
“(a) The name and location of the place of business of each subcontractor who will perform work or labor or render service to the prime contractor in or about the construction of the work or improvements, or a subcontractor licensed by the State of California who, under subcontract to the prime contractor, specially fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications, in an amount in excess of one -half of 1 percent of the prime contractor’s total bid, or, in the case of bids or offers for the construction of streets or highways, including bridges, in excess of one -half of 1 percent of the prime contractor’s total bid or ten thousand dollars ($10,000), whichever is greater.”
“(b) The portion of the work which will be done by each such subcontractor under this act. The prime contractor shall list only one subcontractor for each such portion as is defined by the prime contractor in his bid.”
If the Contractor fails to specify a Subcontractor, or specifies more than one Subcontractor for the same portion of the work to be performed under the Contract (in excess of one -half of 1 percent of the Contractor’s total Bid), the Contractor shall be qua lified to perform that portion itself, and shall perform that portion itself, except as otherwise provided in the Code.
As provided in Section 4107, no Contractor whose Bid is accepted shall substitute any person as Subcontractor in place of the Subcontractor listed in the original Bid, except for causes and by procedures established in Section 4107.5. This section provides procedures to correct a clerical error in the listing of a Subcontractor.
Section 4110 provides that a Contractor violating any of the provisions of the Chapter violates the Contract and the Board may exercise the option either to cancel the Contract or assess the Contractor a penalty in an amount of not more than 10 percent of the subcontract involved, after a public hearing.
CPFCD SL 5308(027) – Barrio Street Lighting Contract No. 4013 Page 74
Should the Contractor fail to adhere to the provisions requiring the Contractor to complete 50 percent of the contract price with its own organization, the Agency may at its sole discretion elect to cancel the contract or deduct an amount equal to 10 percent of the value of the work performed in excess of 50 percent of the contract price by other than the Contractor’s own organization. The Board shall be the sole body for determination of a violation of these provisions.
In any proceedings under this secti on, the prime contractor shall be entitled to a public hearing before the Board and shall be notified ten (10) days in advance of the time and location of said hearing. The determination of the City Council shall be final.

Where an entire item is subcontracted , the value of work subcontracted will be based on the Contract Unit Price. When a portion of an item is subcontracted, the value of work subcontracted will be based on the estimated percentage of the Contract Unit Price. This will be determined from information submitted by the Contractor, and subject to approval by the Engineer.
Before the work of any Subcontractor is started, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval a written statement showing the work to be subcontracted giving the name and business of each Subcontractor and description and value of each portion of the work to be so subcontracted.

If a change is ordered in an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and such change does not involve substantial change in character of the work from that shown on the Plans or specified in the Specifications, then an adjustment in payment will be made. This adjustment will be based upon the increase or decrease in quantity and the Contract Unit Price.
If the actual quantity of an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifications varies from the Bid quantity by 50 percent or less, payment will be made at the Contract Unit Price. If the actual quantity of said item of work varies from the Bid quantity by more than 5 0 percent, payment will be made per Section 3-2.2.2 or 3-

The use of a labor classification which would increase the extra work cost will not be permitted unless the Contractor establishes the necessity for such additional costs. Labor costs for equipment operators and helpers shall be reported only when such costs are not included in the invoice for equipment rental. The labor cost for foremen shall be proportioned to all of their assigned work and only that applicable to extra work will be paid.
Non-direct labor costs, including superintendence, shall be considered part of the markup of Section 3-3.2.3 (a).
(b) Materials. The cost of materials reported shall be at invoice or lowest current price at which such materials are locally available and delivered to the job site in the quantities involved, plus sales tax, freight, and delivery.
The Agency reserves the right to approve materials and sources of supply, or to supply materials to the Contractor if necessary for the progress of the Work. No markup shall be applied to any material provided by the Agency.
(c) Tool and Equipment Rental. No payment will be made for the use of tools which have a replacement value of $500 or less.
Regardless of ownership, the rates and right-of-way delay factors to be used in determining rental and delay costs shall be the edition of the, “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates” published by CALTRANS, current at the time of the actual use of the tool or equipment.

The labor surcharge rates published therein are not a part of this contract.
The rental rates paid shall include the cost of fuel, oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, necessary attachments, repairs and maintenance of any kind, depreciation, storage, insurance, and all incidentals. Necessary loading and transportation costs for equipment used on the extra work shall be included.
If equipment is used intermittently and, when not in use, could be returned to its rental source at less expense to the Agency than holding it at the Work site, it shall be returned, unless the Contractor elects to keep it at the Work site, at no expense to the Agency.
All equipment shall be acceptable to the Engineer, in good working condition, and suitable for the purpose for which it is to be used. Manufacturer’s ratings and approved modifications shall be used to classify equipment and it shall be powered by a unit o f at least the minimum rating recommended by the manufacturer.

4-1.9 Construction Materials Dispute Resolution (Soils, Rock Materials, Concrete, Mortar and Related Materials, Masonry Materials, Bituminous Materials, Rock Products, and Modified Asphalts). In the interest of safety and public value, whenever credible evidence arises to contradict the test values of materials, the Agency and the Contractor will initiate an immediate and cooperative investigation. Test values of materials are results of the materials’ tests, as defined by these Specifications or by the special provisions, required to accept the Work. Credible evidence is process observations or test values gathered using industry accepted practices. A contradiction exists whenever test values or process observations of the same or similar materials are diverse en ough such that the work acceptance or performance becomes suspect. The investigation shall allow access to all test results, procedures, and facilities relevant to the disputed work and consider all available information and, when necessary, gather new and additional information in an attempt to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. If the cooperative investigation reaches any resolution mechanism acceptable to both the Agency and the Contractor, the contradiction shall be considered resolved and the cooperative investigation concluded. Whenever the cooperative investigation is unable to reach resolution, the investigation may then either conclude without resolution or continue by written notification of one party to the other requesting the implementation of a resolution process by committee. The continuance of the investigation shall be contingent upon recipient’s agreement and acknowledged in writing within 3 calendar days after receiving a request. Without acknowledgement, the investigation shall conclude without resolution. The committee shall consist of three State of California Registered Civil Engineers. Within 7 calendar days after the written request notification, the Agency and the Contractor will each select one engineer. Within 14 calendar days of the written request notification, the two selected engineers will select a third engineer. The goal in selection of the third member is to complement the professional experience of the first two engineers. Should the two engineers fail to select the third engineer, the Agency and the Contractor shall each propose 2 engineers to be the third member within 21 calendar days after the written request notification. The first two engineers previously selected shall then select one of the four proposed engineers in a blind draw. The committee shall be a continuance of the cooperative investigation and will re -consider all available information and if necessary gather new and additional information to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. The committee will focus upon the performance adequacy of the material(s) using standard engineering principles and practices and to ensure public value, the
CPFCD SL 5308(027) – Barrio Street Lighting Contract No. 4013 Page 101
committee may provide engineering recommendations as necessary. Unless otherwise agreed, the committee will have 30 calendar days from its formation to complete their review and submit their findings. The final resolution of the committee shall be by majority opinion, in writing, stamped and signed. Should the final resolution not be unanimous, the dissenter may attach a written, stamped, and signed minority opinion. Once started, the resolution process by committee shall continue to full conclusion unless:
1. Within 7 days of the formation of the committee, the Agency and the Contractor reach an acceptable resolution mechanism; or
2. Within 14 days of the formation of the committee, the initiating party withdraws its written notification and agrees to bear all investigative related costs thus far incurred; or
3. At any point by the mutual agreement of the Agency and the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed, the Contractor shall bear and maintain a record for all the investigative costs until resolution. Should the investigation discover assignable causes for the contradiction, the assignable party, the Agency or the Contractor, shall bear all costs associated with the investigation. Should assignable causes for the contradiction extended to both parties, the investigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally.
Should the investigation substantiate a contradiction without assignable cause, the investigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally.
Should the investigation be unable to substantiate a contradiction, the initiator of the investigation shall bear all investigative costs. All claim notification requirements of the contract pertaining to the contradiction shall be suspended until the investigation is concluded.
