SUBJECT: Approval of Plans and Specifications, and Authorization to Advertise for Bids for the Armitos Park Improvements /Community Garden and Multipurpose Bike Path (CIP 9084 and CIP 9007)

RECOMMENDATION:

A. Approve Plans and Specifications for CIP Projects 9084 and CIP 9007 Armitos Park Improvements/Community Garden and Multipurpose Bike Path; and

B. Authorize staff to advertise a notice inviting bids for CIP Projects 9084 and CIP 9007 Armitos Park Improvements/Community Garden and Multipurpose Bike Path.

BACKGROUND:

In 2015, the City Council adopted the Recreation Needs Assessment that included a recommendation for the design and construction of a community garden in Golet a.

Through careful evaluation of existing City-owned properties, it was determined that the ideal location would be the undeveloped portion of the Armitos Park property in Old Town on Armitos Avenue. At that time the project was added to the City’s adopte d Capital Improvement Project listing as CIP Project 9084. The San Jose Creek Bike Path – Middle Extent project was also a current CIP Project (CIP No. 9007) which consisted of constructing a section of the San Jose Creek Bike Path extending from Jonny D. Wallis Park to Armitos Ave. As a portion of this segment of the bike path occupie s the same parcel as the proposed community garden and the existing Armitos Park it was determined by Public Works and Neighborhood Services staff to combine the two projects to be constructed as one combined project.

In 2019, the City of Goleta applied for a State of California Proposition 68 Grant to fund this project. As part of the application process, it was necessary to provide a conceptual design of the proposed project. As part of this process, five community meetings were held to define community desires. The conceptual design was reviewed by representatives from UCSB’s Master Gardener Progra m, Fairview Gardens and community members with a strong interest in the project, which provided recommendations for improvements that were incorporated. The revised conceptual design was presented to and supported by the Parks and Recreation Commission at their meeting of October 2, 2019.

Moreover, in February of 2019, Public Works staff submitted an application to the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments (SBCAG) to participate in Cycle 4 of the Measure A South Coast Regional Bicycle & Pedestria n (Bike and Ped) program for funding for the construction phase of the San Jose Creek Bike Path Middle Extent Project.

On June 2019, the SBCAG Board approved and authorized the execution of a Cooperative Agreement with the City of Goleta to contribute $181 ,320 of grant funding for the Project. The City Council approved the Cooperative Agreement with SBCAG on August 20, 2019.

At the end of October 2019, the City released a Request for Proposals for the professional design, plans, specifications and estimate services for the Community Garden, San Jose Creek Bike Path and Improvements at Armitos Park. Three proposals were received and upon staff evaluation, it was determined that RRM, Inc. was considered the most qualified to deliver the project.

On February 4, 2020, the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into a Professional Design Services Agreement with RRM, Inc for the design of the Community Garden, Miscellaneous Improvements at Armitos Park, and the incorporation of the existing plans for San Jose Creek Bike Path at Armitos Park in an amount not to exceed $108,200.

In July 2020, the City Council reviewed the design and approved it with recommendations.

Since that time, RRM has been developing construction documents and the project is now ready to proceed to the bidding process.

DISCUSSION:

Armitos Park was built in 2009 as a response to the need for more opportunities for outdoor recreation in this area. The existing parcel is over 64,000 square feet (SF) and currently only 17,000 SF have been developed with an access path, a park bench, a small turf area, and small playground for 5 –12-year-olds. The playground structure is approximately ten years old and in good condition and could be salvaged. The project has a bid alternate to install a new playground in its place, should funding allow. The pour- in-place surfacing is damaged and will be replaced and expanded.

Improvements/additions to be made at the existing park include adding swings for all ages and abilities, bike racks, new safety surfacing, sand play features, musical elements, ADA accessible path, benches, and fencing.

In 2015 the City Council adopted the Recreation Needs Assessment that called for construction of a community garden in Goleta. The remaining 47,000 square feet of the Armitos Park property was chosen for the location of th is new community garden. The location is ideal for this project because it is already owned by the City, is located in close proximity to higher density housing, and the Old Town area is considered a food desert in terms of accessibility to affordable fresh fruits and vegetables.

The Community Garden features 50 raised garden beds of two different sizes, tool sheds, interpretive signs, hose bibs, tables/sink for cleaning, education and/or gathering area and a small picnic area with a pizza oven instead of BBQ brazier. The garden will be accessible to users by a code they will receive once they have reserved a garden plot. 2 Meeting Date: November 1, 2022

Page 3 of 5 ends

The fencing not only surrounds the garden area, but also the playground area. The gates surrounding playground will be battery operated and automatically unlocked during park hours and locked at dusk.

The rental cost of the garden plots and how the rental program will be managed is still under review. Staff is currently evaluating the benefits and cost effectiveness of this program managed by a non-profit organization, a business and or the City of Goleta. The maintenance of the facility will be absorbed by the Parks and Open Space Division in Public Works.

Conceptual Design

In addition to the new improvements to Armitos Park and the new community garden, the project includes construction of a new Multipur pose bike/pedestrian path (a segment of the overall San Jose Creek Multipurpose Path) that will connect Armitos Park to Jonny D.

Wallis Neighborhood Park to the south. The ne w Multipurpose path will provide a safe off-street connection between the two parks for active recreational and transportation uses and will eventually connect to the overall San Jose Creek Multipurpose Path Project Northern and Southern Segments providing Old Town Goleta residents with active transportation opportunities to both the north and south of the project site. The Multipurpose path is designed as a linear park and will include features such as interpretive/educational signage about the San Jose Creek and surrounding riparian area and opportunities for passive recreation for enjoying the beauty of the creek.

The plans and specifications for both projects consist of the plan sheets, bid documents, the City’s general provisions, and project special provisions. As discussed in greater detail in the Fiscal Impacts section of this report, the latest construction cost estimate for the 3 Meeting Date: November 1, 2022

Page 4 of 5 ends

Armitos Park improvements and community garden are approximately $1,180,725. The current cost estimate for the constructi on of the Multipurpose path is approximately, $450,000. Staff is requesting that the City Council approve these plans and specifications and authorize staff to advertise for construction bids for the project. It is intended that this project will follow th e same timelines as the Splash Pad and improvements at Jonny D.

Wallis Neighborhood Park in order to reduce construction impacts to the neighbors.

FISCAL IMPACTS:

The following table shows the total estimated project costs combined for both projects.

Project Components (CIP 9084 and CIP 9007) Estimated Costs Estimated Balance
Needed

CIP 9084 CIP 9007
Right-of-way Acquisition $0 $150,000 $0
Design/Environmental $62,271 $112,500** $0
Estimated Construction Cost* $1,180,725 $450,000 $1,630,725 Estimated Construction Management/Contingency $330,604 $157,500 $488,104 Total Expenditure Estimate $1,573,600 $870,000 $2,118,829

*Based on current cost estimates
**Design costs estimated as actual costs include the stretch of San Jose Creek Bike Path through JDW Park in addition to the portion being built with this Project

It is important to note that the Right -of-way Acquisition (all property needed has already been acquired) and Design/Environmental costs have already been expended. The following ta ble captures the currently available allocations for construction and construction management.

Staff utilized current cost estimates for both projects , and it appears that there are sufficient funds allocated to complete the combined projects. Actual construction costs and construction management, inspection and testing costs will be determined once bids are received. Any additional allocation of funds which may or may not be necessary will be determined when the Project is brought back to City Council for award. Staff is aware 4 Meeting Date: November 1, 2022

and notes that labor and material costs have been increasing significantly—particularly since the beginning of 2022.

It should be noted that the City applied for two separate rounds of the Proposition 68 Competitive Grant Program, and an Urban Greening Grant, but was unfortunately unsuccessful.

GOLETA STRATEGIC PLAN:

City-Wide Strategy: Support Community Vitality and Enhanced Recreational Opportunities

Strategic Goal: Support programs that enhance quality of life in the Goleta community such as recreation, public safety, human services, and cultural arts

City-Wide Strategy: Strengthen Infrastructure

Strategic Goal: Strengthen Citywide infrastructure including roads and traffic circulation, including bicycle lanes, paths, and sidewalks.

Strategic Goal: Encourage use of Alternative Transportation Methods that Reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled.

City-Wide Strategy: Return Old Town to a Vital Center of the City

Strategic Goal: Complete design and construction of the San Jose Creek Bike Path Project (Middle Extent) from Jonny D. Wallis Park to Armitos Avenue.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may elect to not approve the plans and specifications and not authorize staff to advertise for construction bids for this project. Doing so would delay the construction of the project.

This requirement is applicable whether or not bidder lists a subcontractor for each such trade.

ompanies performing work on the Project site, if any, including, but not limited to, any separate contractor retained by the City.

2.12 Bidder has checked the figures set forth in the bid schedule and understands that neither the City nor any officer or employee therefore will be responsible for any misunderstandings, errors, or omissions on the part of the Bidder in submitting its Bid. The failure of a Bidder to receive or examine any of the Bidding Documents or to inspect the site shall not relieve such Bidder from any obligation with respect to the Bid, the Contract, or the Work required under the Contract Documents.

3. CONTRACT DOCUMENTS.

3.1. Bidders may obtain complete sets of the Contract Documents from PlanetBids, the City of Goleta website, or the City’s Public Works Department for the sum stated in the notice inviting sealed bids.

3.2. Bidders will use a complete set of Contract Documents in preparing bids.

3.3. The City makes copies of the Contract Documents available, on the above terms, for the sole purpose of obtaining bids for the Work and does not confer a license or grant permission for any other use of the Contract Documents.

3.4. The City does not assume any liability or responsibility based on any defective or incomplete copying, excerpting, scanning, faxing, downloading, or printing of the Bidding Documents.

5. PRODUCT SUBSTITUTIONS.
5 .1 No requests for product substitutions will be considered before award of contract unless requested through the Request for Information (RFI) process so that all bidders will be informed. Bidders wishing to obtain authorization for an or equal substitution of an equivalent material, product or equipment, shall submit all requests for or equal substitution using the form included as Attachment A to these Bidding Instructions, together with data substantiating Bidder’s representation that the non-specified item is of equal quality to the item. Requests for product substitutions not handled through the RFI process will only be considered after award of the contract and in the manner provided for in the contract documents. Authorization of an equal substitution of equivalent materials is solely within the discretion of the City and, if given, shall be made by Addendum or Change Order issued by the City. Bids shall not be based on any or equal substitution request that has not been authorized in writing by City Addendum. In the absence of a written Addendum authorizing a pre-Bid or equal substitution request, the request shall be deemed denied.

6. SUBCONTRACTORS.

6.1. Each bidder will list in the bid form all first-tier subcontractors that will perform work, labor or render such services in excess of ½ of one percent of the total bid of the total bid or $10,000, whichever is greater. The bid form contains spaces for the following information when listing subcontractors: (1) work activity; (2) name of subcontractor; (3) city of subcontractor’s business location; (4) California contractor’s license number, and (5) DIR public works contractor registration number. An inadvertent error in listing the California contractor’s license number or public works contractor registration number shall not be grounds for filing a bid protest or grounds for considering the bid nonresponsive if the corrected contractor's license number is submitted to the City by the Bidder within 24 hours after the bid opening and provided the corrected contractor's license number corresponds to the submitted name and location for that subcontractor. Failure to list any of these other items on the bid form will result in the City treating the bid as if no subcontractor was listed for the work and that bidder represents to the City that it is fully qualified to perform that portion of the Work and will so perform such Work.

6.2. Substitution of subcontractors after the bid deadline who are listed in the bid form will only be allowed with the City’s written consent and in accordance with California law.

7. ADDENDA.

7.2. Bidders must be registered on the City’s PlanetBids portal to receive addendum notifications. Addenda will be posted on the PlanetBids portal. 55 COMMUNITY GARDEN, SAN JOSE CREEK MULTI-PURPOSE PATH, AND ARMITOS PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NOS. 9007 AND 9084

7.3. Copies of addenda will be made available for inspection at the City’s Public Works D
epartment.

7.4. The City will issue addenda so that they are received by prospective bidders not less than three (3) business days before the bid deadline. Addenda that withdraw the request for bids or postpone the bid deadline may be issued any time before the bid deadline.

7.5. Each bidder is responsible for ensuring that it has received all issued addenda before submitting a bid. All bidders are required to acknowledge and confirm receipt of each and every addendum in their Bid Proposal Form. Failure to acknowledge all Addenda may result in a Bid being deemed nonresponsive and not eligible for award of the Contract.

8. NOT USED

9.3. Each bidder must fill out the “bidders statement of past contract disqualifications” form stating any and all instances of contract disqualifications due to a violation of a law or safety regulation. The bidder must explain the circumstances of each disqualification.

9.4. Bidder will make no stipulations on the bid form nor qualify the bid in any manner.

9.5. The bids will be based upon full completion of all the Work as shown on the plans and specifications. It is expressly understood that the plans are drawn with as much accuracy as is possible in advance, but should errors, omissions or discrepancies exist in the plans which show conditions that vary from those encountered in construction, the bidder (if awarded the contract) specifically agrees to construct a completed Work ready for the use and in the manner which is intended.

9.6. The bid form will be signed by a person or persons legally authorized to bind bidder to a contract. Bidder’s representative will sign and date the declaration of eligibility to contract included in the bid form. Failure to sign and date the declaration will cause the bid to be rejected.

The sealed envelope should be plainly marked on the outside identifying the names as shown in the notice inviting sealed bids.

10.2. If the apparent lowest responsible bidder fails to sign the contract and furnish all items required by the bidding documents within the time limits specified in these bidding instructions, the City may reject such bidder and select the next apparent lowest responsible bidder until all bids have been exhausted or the City may reject all bids. In the event the bid is rejected, such bidder will be liable for and forfeit to the City the amount of the difference, not to exceed the amount of the bid security, between the amount of the disqualified bid and the larger amount for which the City procures the Work. The City may also use the bid security to cover the cost of rebidding the project.

10.3. If a bid bond is submitted and an attorney-in-fact executes the bid bond on behalf of the surety, a notarized and current copy of the power of attorney will be affixed to the bid bond. The surety issuing the bid bond must be admitted to provide surety within the State of California.

14.4. In addition to other provisions of the Bidding Documents, upon the request of the City, a bidder whose Bid is under consideration for the award of the Contract shall promptly submit satisfactory evidence to City showing the bidder’s financial resources, experience in the field, and organization and other factors evidencing bidder’s ability to successfully execute and complete the Contract.

14.5. The City reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive discrepancies, irregularities, informalities, or any other error in the bid or bidding, when to do so seems to best serve the public interest. The right of the City to waive errors applies even if the Bidding Documents state that a discrepancy, irregularity, informality, or other error make a bid nonresponsive, so long as the error does not constitute a material error. The City reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to: judge the bidder’s representations as stated in the Bid forms and any post-Bid information to determine whether or not bidder is qualified to perform the Work; be the sole judge regarding the suitability of the products, services, or supplies offered; to not purchase all items or the full quantity of each item listed in the Bid Item List; reject any or all Bids; waive any deficiencies, irregularities, or informalities in any Bids or 58 COMMUNITY GARDEN, SAN JOSE CREEK MULTI-PURPOSE PATH, AND ARMITOS PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NOS. 9007 AND 9084

By submitting a Bid, the bidder disclaims any right to be paid for such costs.

14.6. The City may reject any bid not accompanied by the required bid security or any other item required by the bidding documents, or a bid which is in any other way materially incomplete, irregular or not responsive to the bid request in the sole determination of the City.

It is not a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section 10164 or 20103.5 of the Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.

The award of the Contracts shall be made by the City Council.

17. PUBLIC RECORDS. City seeks to conduct its business openly. Upon identification of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and upon notifying such bidder, Bids shall be regarded as public, with the exception any elements of each Bid that are identified by the Bidder as business or trade secrets and plainly marked as “trade secret,” “confidential,” or “proprietary.” Each element of a Bid which a Bidder desires not to be considered public must be clearly marked as set forth above; any blanket statement (i.e. regarding entire pages, documents, or other, non-specific designations) shall not be sufficient and shall not bind the City in any way whatsoever. If City receives a request from a third party to make a Bid available for inspection or copying, the City will notify the Bidder of the request. If a Bidder instructs the City that the information is not to be released, City will withhold the information, provided, the Bidder expeditiously seeks a protective order from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent such release. If disclosure is required by law (despite the Bidder’s request for confidentiality), the City shall not in any way be liable or responsible for the disclosure of such records or part thereof.

18. BID PROTEST. Any registered Bidder may file a protest provided that each and all of the following are complied with:

BIDDING SHEET (Page 1 of 3)
The cost of all labor, material and equipment necessary for the completion of the work itemized, even though not shown or specified, shall be included in the unit or lump sum prices for the various items shown herein.

The City further reserves the right to reject any or all bids, to waive any informality or irregularity in any bid or the bidding procedure, and to delete any items of work in the award of contract. The City's decision on the bid amount is final.

Bidders must bid on all items in the Bid Schedule including the Supplemental and/or Alternative Bid Items in order for their bids to be complete. The award of contract will be based on the lowest responsive Base Bid only.

In the case of unit basis items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column (total base bid in words) shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item.

Bids on lump sum items are item totals. If a unit price of a lump sum item is entered and it differs from the item total, the item total prevails.

Entries are to be expressed in dollars or decimal fractions of a dollar. Symbols such as commas and dollar signs are ignored and have no significance in establishing unit price or item total.

Unit prices and item totals are interpreted by the number of digits and decimal placement. Do not round item totals or the total bid.

In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price prevails, except as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount of the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price; (b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten, one hundred, etc., or one-tenth, or one-hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentage-wise the unit price or item total in the City's Final Estimate of cost.

If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise, if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided. .

he CITY and its officers, agents and employees (“Indemnitees”) shall not be answerable or accountable in any manner for any loss or damage that may happen to the work or any part thereof, or for any of the materials or other things used or employed in performing the work; or for injury or damage to any person or persons, either workers or employees of CONTRACTOR, of its subcontractors or the public, or for damage to adjoining or other property from any cause whatsoever arising out of or in connection with the performance of the work. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for any damage or injury to any person or property resulting from defects or obstructions or from any cause whatsoever.

CO
NTRACTOR will indemnify Indemnities against and will hold and save Indemnitees harmless from any and all actions, claims, damages to persons or property, penalties, obligations or liabilities that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm, entity, corporation, political subdivision, or other organization arising out of or in connection with the work, operation, or activities of CONTRACTOR, its agents, employees, subcontractors or invitees provided for herein, whether or not there is concurrent passive negligence on the part of CITY. In connection therewith:
a. CONTRACTOR will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any such c
laims, damages, penalties, obligations or liabilities and will pay all costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, expert fees and costs incurred in connection therewith.
b. CONTRACTOR will promptly pay any judgment rendere d against CONTRACTOR or Indemnitees covering such claims, damages, penalties, obligations and liabilities arising out of or in connection with such work, operations or activities of CONTRACTOR hereunder, and CONTRACTOR agrees to save and hold the Indemnitees harmless therefrom.
c.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California.

This indemnity is effective without reference to the existence or applicability of any insurance coverage which may have been required under this CONTRACT or any additional insured endorsements which may extend to Indemnitees.

CONTRACTOR, on behalf of itself and all parties claiming under or through it, hereby waives all rights of subrogation and contribution against the Indemnitees, while acting within the scope of their duties, from all claims, losses and liabilities arising out of or incident to activities or operations performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR regardless of any prior, concurrent, or subsequent passive negligence by the Indemnitees.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship.

Section 2-1.1 Conflict in Plans
As the figured dimensions shown on the drawings and in the specifications of the contract may not in every case agree with scale dimensions, the figured dimensions shall be followed in preference to the scaled dimensions, and drawings to a large scale shall be followed in preference to the drawings to a small scale. Should it appear that the work to be done, or any of the matter relative thereto is not sufficiently detailed or explained in the contract documents, the Contractor shall apply to the Engineer for such further explanations as may be necessary and shall conform thereto as part of the contract so far as may be consistent with the terms thereof.

Section 2-1.2 Suggestions to Contractor
Any plan or method of work suggested by the Agency or the Engineer to the Contractor but not specified or required, if adopted or followed by the Contractor in whole or in part, shall be used at the risk and responsibility of the Contractor; and the Agency and the Engineer shall assume no responsibility therefore and in no way be held liable for any defects in the work which may result from or be caused by use of such plan or method of work.

Section 2-5.5 Water for Construction
Attention is directed to the various sections of the Standard Specifications and these Special Provisions which require the use of water for the construction of this project.

Water for construction purposes as required by these Specifications will be provided by the Goleta Water District at the Contractor's expense. The City encourages the Contractor to use reclaimed water when a fill station is located nearby.

10-4 Claims Procedures as a Prerequisite to Filing Suit Contractor acknowledges and agrees that its failure to submit any notice of potential claim or claim arising under this Contract in accordance with Section10, shall constitute a waiver of Contractor’s right to additional compensation and/or extension of time. Failure to follow the provisions set forth in this Contract shall constitute a waiver of Contractor’s right to receive any additional time or money as a result of any event giving rise to a claim or request for change order. Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Contract relating to any additional time or money which Contractor may be entitled to upon the occurrence of any directive or other event, or any other circumstance, Contractor must comply with the provisions of Section 10 to avoid a waiver of any such entitlement to any additional time or money. Contractor’s failure, neglect, or refusal to comply with the requirements of Section 10, or any portion thereof, shall bar Contractor’s request for additional compensation or adjustments to contract time. Such failure, neglect, or refusal prejudices the City’s and the Engineer’s ability to recognize and mitigate delay, and such failure, neglect, or refusal prevent the timely analysis of requests for adjustment of contract time, and whether such adjustments may be warranted. Contractor hereby waives all rights to additional compensation or adjustments of contract time due to delays or accelerations 136

COMMUNITY GARDEN, SAN JOSE CREEK MULTI-PURPOSE PATH, AND ARMITOS PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NOS. 9007 AND 9084

Notwithstanding Contractor’s participation in dispute resolution proceedings or other claims procedures under the Contract, such proceedings are in addition to Contractor’s obligation to present a written Government Code claim in accordance with Section 900 et al of the California Government Code, which is a prerequisite to filing a lawsuit for money or damages against the City. Contractor further acknowledges that notwithstanding Contractor’s compliance with the claims procedures set forth in Section 10or in the Contract Documents, such procedures are in addition to Contractor’s obligation to comply with the claims procedures set forth in Government Code sections 900 et al prior to filing a lawsuit against the City for any such claim. Failure to submit a Government Code claim, or comply with the claims provision contained in Section 10 or in the City Special Provisions, shall bar Contractor from bringing and maintaining a valid lawsuit against the City.

Section 10-6 Participation in Dispute Resolution Proceedings.

Contractor and the City agree that all parties necessary to resolve a claim or dispute should be parties to the same dispute resolution proceeding. Contractor agrees upon request of the City to be joined in any mediation or arbitration when Contractor’s presence is required if complete relief is to be accorded and to prevent the possibility of conflicting rulings on a common issue of law or fact and otherwise to prevent the risk of the parties being subjected to inconsistent obligations or decisions.

Section 10-7 Contractor’s Continuing Obligations.

At all times during the processing of the Contractor’s potential Claim, including, but not limited to, in response to a work directive issued by the Engineer, the Contractor shall diligently proceed with the performance of the Disputed Work and other Work, unless otherwise specified or directed by the Engineer.

The Contractor shall provide the Engineer the opportunity to examine the site of the Disputed Work as soon as reasonably possible, and in no event later than five (5) days from the date of the Initial Notice of Potential Claim.

The Contractor shall allow the Engineer access to its project records deemed necessary by the Engineer to evaluate the potential Claim within fifteen (15) days of the date of the Engineer's written request.

All Subcontractor’s and material supplier’s claims of any type shall be brought only through Contractor pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10 and Contractor’s prior good faith review 137

COMMUNITY GARDEN, SAN JOSE CREEK MULTI-PURPOSE PATH, AND ARMITOS PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT NOS. 9007 AND 9084
E-24

pursuant to the Contract Documents. Under no circumstances shall any Subcontractor or material supplier make any direct claim against City.

Except where provided by law, or elsewhere in these Contract Documents, THE CITY SHALL

NOT BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND THE CONTRACTOR SHALL NOT INCLUDE THEM IN ITS CLAIMS. Contractor shall be limited in its recovery on any Claim(s) to the adjustments allowed in the Contract Documents.

During each step in the processing of the Contractor’s Claim, each notice shall be accompanied by the Contractor’s written statement that the adjustment or relief claimed is the entire adjustment or relief to which the claimant believes it is entitled as a result of the event, issue, or circumstance giving rise to the Claim.

Under no circumstances may the Contractor submit an Initial Notice of Potential Claim, Supplemental Notice of Potential Claim, or Notice of Final Claim after the date of final payment.

Section 10-8 Notice of Third-Party Claims.

At the completion of slope protection work, fill voids in the footing trench with excavated material.

Compaction is not required.

PLACEMENT METHOD A
Do not place rocks by dumping.

Place larger rocks in the footing trench.

Place rocks on the slope such that their longitudinal axis is normal to the face of the embankment.

Place foundation course rocks such that they are in contact with the ground surface.

For rocks above the foundation course, place them such that each rock has a 3-point bearing on underlying rocks; do not bear them on smaller rocks which may be used for chinking voids.

PLACEMENT METHOD B
221
Armitos Park Improvements, Community Garden, & San Jose Creek Multi-Purpose Path

SECTION H: Technical Specifications Page 83
Rocks may be placed by dumping and may be spread in layers by bulldozers or other suitable equipment.

Place rocks such that:
a. There is a minimum of voids
b. Larger rocks are in the toe course and on the outside surface of the slope protection

Earthwork must comply with section 300 of the standard specifications.

If placement of fabric is required, place the fabric before placing slope protection, slope paving, and gabions.

Before placing the fabric, the surface of the slope must be free of loose or extraneous material and sharp objects that may damage the fabric.

Handle and place the fabric under manufacturer's instructions. Place the fabric loosely on the slope such that it conforms to the surface without damage to the fabric when the cover material is placed.

Join the edges of the fabric with either overlapped joints or stitched seams.

If the fabric is joined with overlapped joints, the adjacent borders of the fabric must be overlapped by at least 24 inches. Overlap in the same direction that the cover material is placed.

If the fabric is joined by stitched seams, stitch with contrasting colored yarn. Use the size and composition of yarn that is recommended by the fabric manufacturer. Use 5 to 7 stitches per inch of seam. The strength of a stitched seam must be the same as that specified for the fabric, except if the stitched seams are oriented up and down a slope, the strength may be reduced to a value that it is at least 80 percent of that specified for the fabric.

Do not operate equipment or drive vehicles directly on the fabric.

If the fabric is damaged and the Engineer determines that it cannot be repaired, replace the fabric.

If the Engineer determines that the fabric can be repaired, then repair it by covering the damaged area with new fabric. If the repair is made using overlapped joints, the overlap must be at least 3 feet.
