ACCEPTANCE OF TOLL BROTHERS IMPROVEMENTS AND RELEASE OF BONDS FOR TRACT 19124
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Accept as complete the tract improvements and monumentation constructed by Toll Brothers West Inc., a Delaware corporation, for Tract 19124

2. Authorize the City Clerk to release the Subdivision Faithful Performance and Subdivision Labor and Materials Bonds, both in the amount of $176,811.01, and the Subdivision Improvement Monumentation Bond in the amount of $59,250.

3. Authorize the City Clerk to release the Subdivision Improvement Warranty Bond in the amount of $17,681.10 one year after acceptance of the public improvements for Tract 19124 with the concurrence of the Director of Public Works/City Engineer.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On August 17, 2021, the City Council approved Final Tract Map No. 19124 (Attachment 1) for a 9-numbered and 28-lettered lot subdivision, and a Subdivision Improvement Agreement with Toll Brothers West, a Delaware corporation (“Toll”). The 9-numbered lots enabled Toll to construct single family residential units (lots 1-5), affordable senior housing (lot 7), parks (lots 6 and 9), and a possible school (lot 8). Subsequent to the approval of tract 19124, the construction of the school did not go forward and lot 8 was converted to an additional single-family residential site. The 28-lettered lots consisted of three for private street purposes, twenty-one for open space/landscape purposes, and four lots for public street purposes. Once the decision was made regarding the school site, the four public streets converted to private streets. The Homeowners Association (“HOA”) will maintain all twenty-eight lettered lots.

In accordance with the agreement, Toll submitted a Subdivision Improvement Faithful Performance Bond and a Subdivision Improvement Labor and Materials Bond, both in the amount of $4,274,906.97 to guarantee construction of the tract improvements. These improvements include the tract backbone streets, curb and Item: 7
26 gutter, sidewalks, streetlights; the backbone storm drain system; improvements on Bake Parkway and Rancho Parkway; and the common open space improvements. The improvements to Bake Parkway and Rancho Parkway are public improvements maintained by the City. The improvements consisted of adding right-turn lanes into the development on both streets. All other improvements are private and will be maintained by the HOA. Toll also submitted a Subdivision Improvement Monumentation Bond in the amount of $42,750 to establish monuments for the tract.

Lastly, Toll submitted a Subdivision Improvement Warranty Bond in the amount of $427,490.68 to guarantee repair or replacement of the tract improvements for defective work for a one-year period after acceptance of the improvements. On March 24, 2025, the City received letters from Toll requesting release of bonds associated with the tract improvements and monumentation for Tract 19124 (Attachment 2). There were several items required of Toll before the City would accept the improvements. These included repairs to concrete and asphalt improvements. Staff determined the tract improvements now comply with the approved plans and are completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. The HOA will maintain all tract improvements.

Toll’s engineer, Hunsaker & Associates, provided a letter dated January 16, 2025, (Attachment 3) stating that all survey monuments required by Tract 19124 were set and that they were paid for the work. Staff recommend the City Council accept the completed improvements and monumentation for Tract 19124 and authorize the release of the Subdivision Improvement Faithful Performance, Subdivision Improvement Labor and Materials, and the Subdivision Improvement Monumentation Bonds. Staff also recommend the City Council authorize the City Clerk to release the Subdivision Improvement Warranty Bond one year after acceptance of the improvements with the concurrence of the Director of Public Works/City Engineer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is minimal fiscal impact to the City as the improvements on Bake Parkway and Rancho Parkway are minor and the City is already maintaining both streets.

The HOA will maintain all other improvements.

NOTICE OF COMPLETION FOR NON-ARTERIAL STREETS ASPHALT
REPAIRS ZONE D (24S01A)
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Find that LCR Earthwork & Engineering Corp. has completed construction of Asphalt Repairs for Non-Arterial Streets, Zone D (24S01A).

2. Approve the Notice of Completion and authorize the Mayor to execute the document on behalf of the City.

3. Authorize City Clerk to submit Notice of Completion for recordation to the Office of the County Recorder of Orange County within fifteen days of the City Council approval, as required by Section 9204 of the California Civil Code.

4. Authorize staff to release any unencumbered retention in accordance with California law.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On November 19, 2024, the City Council awarded a contract to LCR Earthwork & Engineering Corp. (“LCR”) in the amount of $2,257,700 to provide pavement repairs within Zone D. Zone D encompasses the residential and commercial areas from Trabuco Road to Portola Parkway between Lake Forest Drive and the City of Irvine boundary. The Project advances the City’s goal of maintaining a “Good” (75 point or more) rating as determined by the biannual Pavement Condition Index (“PCI”) analysis.

The Project began on January 21, 2025. The City Manager authorized Contract Change Order #1 (“CCO #1”), which added $168,556.20 in compensation to the construction contract with LCR. The Project was substantially completed on July 21, 2024. The total construction cost, including the contract change orders, is $2,426,256.20. After final inspection of the Project, determination of final quantities, and progress payment processing, the Project is now ready for the Notice of Completion.

Item: 8
40 Staff are requesting the City Council approve the Notice of Completion (Attachment 1) and direct staff to release any unencumbered retention in accordance with California law. Sufficient funding exists in the 2023-25 Capital Improvement Projects Budget – Street Resurfacing and Slurry Seal Improvement Project to cover the costs of the recommended action.

BACKGROUND:

The City has an established annual street maintenance program to slurry seal and asphalt overlay public streets. As a requirement of OCTA’s Measure M funding, the City utilizes a pavement management system to evaluate and score the condition of each street biannually utilizing a PCI. The pavement management system provides recommendations to maintain street condition based on the PCI rating. The PCI for the entire City is 75, or “Good” on a scale of 0-100, with 100 being a new street.

The City performs slurry seal applications in ten-year intervals and resurfaces streets on an as-needed basis with available funding. As part of the slurry seal program, staff also identified locations on the streets within zones that require structural repairs in addition to the slurry seal. The contractor would perform these localized repairs prior to the application of the slurry seal. This best management practice reduces expensive reconstruction costs by extending the useful life of the pavement without the need for full resurfacing of the asphalt.

Zone D area is historically the largest zone and has grown with the addition of the Baker Ranch neighborhoods. Additionally, fiber optic companies are microtrenching throughout the city and were moving to Zone D at the time of award of this project. Considering these factors, staff decided to approach Zone D differently by dividing the work into two phases: repairing asphalt to preserve structural integrity of existing pavement first and applying slurry seal after fiber optic installation is complete. The Fiscal Year 2023-25 slurry seal project for non- arterial streets was identified as Zone D.

On November 19, 2024, the City Council awarded a construction contract to LCR for the asphalt Repair Project for Non-Arterial Streets, Zone D for $2,257,700.

The Project began on January 21, 2025. The City Manager authorized Contract Change Order (“CCO #1”), which added $168,556.20 in compensation to the construction contract with LCR. This Change Order provided compensation for additional work related to final quantity adjustments based on field conditions and performing a 7’ header grind and overlay existing pavement on Canada Road from Dimension Drive to Lake Forest Drive.

Item: 8
41 DISCUSSION:

LCR substantially completed construction activities on July 21, 2025. The City’s construction manager conducted a final inspection to ensure the Project’s completion per the contract requirements.

The Notice of Completion establishes a date that limits the time subcontractors and material vendors may file stop notices or liens against the project. Following City Council approval, the City Clerk must submit the Notice of Completion to the Clerk Recorder of Orange County within 15 days of the City Council’s action, as required by Section 9204 of the California Civil Code. Following approval and recordation, the Notice of Completion establishes a 30-day period for subcontractors and material vendors to file stop payment notices and initiates the start date for the warranty period. Since the work has been completed and accepted by the City, staff recommend the City Council approve the Notice of Completion and release the retention payment 30 days after recording the Notice of Completion, providing there are no stop notices for the project on file with the City.

Approving the recommended action would find the project complete, authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Notice of Completion, and allow staff to release any unencumbered retention in accordance with California law.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact of the recommended action would find the Project complete, authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Notice of Completion, and allow staff to release any unencumbered retention in accordance with California law.

The total contract cost of the Project would be $2,426,256.20. Sufficient funding exists in the 2023-25 Capital Improvement Projects Budget – Street Resurfacing and Slurry Seal Improvement Project to cover the costs of the recommended action.

AWARD CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR EL TORO ROAD CORRIDOR
IMPROVEMENTS - A: JERONIMO ROAD WIDENING PROJECT (PW 2019-08) B: EL TORO ROAD MEDIAN IMPROVEMENTS (2020-07) C: TRABUCO ROAD MEDIAN IMPROVEMENTS (24S09B)
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Approve contract documents for construction of Jeronimo Road Widening (PW 2019-08), El Toro Road Median Improvements (PW 2020-07), and Trabuco Road Median Improvements (24S09B).

2. Adopt a Resolution entitled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE FOREST, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE 2025- 2032 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN; AMENDING APPROPRIATIONS
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-26.”

3. Award a contract in the amount of $8,364,464 to All American Asphalt, Inc.

4. Reject all other bids received and authorize return of the bid bonds upon receipt of the executed contract documents from All American Asphalt, Inc.

5. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk to attest the contract with All American Asphalt, Inc.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The El Toro Road Corridor Improvements include 3 projects: Jeronimo Road Widening (PW 2019-08), El Toro Road Median Improvements (PW 2020-07), and Trabuco Road Median Improvements (24S09B). The Jeronimo Road Widening will correct an existing misalignment of the through lanes and provide for an additional left-turn lane on eastbound and westbound El Toro Road at Jeronimo Road. The El Toro Road Median Improvements will construct raised medians and rehabilitate the pavement on El Toro Road from Jeronimo Road to Trabuco Road. The Trabuco Road Median Improvements will replace the existing painted median and stick down delineators with a raised hardscaped median on Trabuco Road north of El Toro Road.

Item: 9
45 On July 16, 2025, the City received bids from two (2) bidders, ranging from $8,364,464.00 to $8,767,623.90. The apparent low bidder is All American Asphalt (“AAA”). The total cost to construct, inspect, provide construction support, and provide contingency for the 3 projects is estimated to be $9.7 million.

Currently, there are insufficient funds budgeted for the Jeronimo Road Widening and El Toro Road Median Improvements, which are both part of the Foothill Circulation Phasing Plan (“FCPP”). These projects will require the appropriation of additional FCPP funds of $2,227,627 and $5,422,328, respectively.

Accordingly, the attached proposed budget resolution would appropriate the additional FCPP funds for the first two projects and reduce the General Fund (CIP) budget for the third project as necessary to proceed with the construction phase of these projects.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the proposed budget resolution to ensure there is sufficient funding for all 3 projects and award the proposed construction contract to AAA in the amount of $8,364,464. The Finance Department prepared the proposed construction contract with AAA, and the City Attorney has reviewed and approved the contract as to form.

BACKGROUND:

The Foothill Circulation Phasing Plan (“FCPP”) was established by the County Board of Supervisors in 1987 to provide for the construction of a regional road network in the foothills of South Orange County. This is a developer fee-based program to mitigate traffic impacts in the canyon and foothill areas. The City took over the remaining mitigation projects after its incorporation in 1991. Two of the three projects included with the El Toro Road Corridor Improvements are FCPP projects.

The Jeronimo Road Widening is an FCCP project that consists of widening Jeronimo Road north of El Toro Road to correct an existing misalignment of the through traffic lanes located south of the intersection. The City is acquiring approximately 3,400 square feet of additional right-of-way and a temporary construction easement (“TCE”) of approximately 6,600 square feet from the property located at the northwest corner of this intersection through the eminent domain process. The additional right-of-way and TCE are required to construct the retaining wall and parkway improvements necessary to accommodate the proposed street widening. Eastbound and westbound El Toro Road will also be restriped for an additional left-turn lane in each direction.

The El Toro Road Median Improvements are also an FCCP project that consists of replacing the existing painted medians along El Toro Road from Jeronimo Item: 9
46 Road to Trabuco Road with raised landscape medians. The Trabuco Road Median Improvements is a General Fund project that will replace the existing painted medians and stick down delineators with a raised hardscaped median to improve traffic safety on Trabuco Road north of El Toro Road.

DISCUSSION:

On May 14, 2025, the El Toro Road Corridor Improvements were publicly advertised on OpenGov to solicit bids for construction as authorized by the City Manager. The El Toro Road Corridor Improvements included three projects on El Toro Road from Jeronimo Road to Trabuco Road (Attachment 1). The three projects were packaged and advertised together as a single construction contract for economies of scale. On July 16, 2025, the City received bids from two (2) firms, ranging from $8,364,464.00 to $8,767,623.90. The engineer’s estimate for the construction of the three projects was approximately $9.2 million. The apparent low bidder is AAA with a total bid amount of $8,364,464. After opening bids, the total project cost to construct, inspect, provide construction support, and provide contingency for the project is estimated to be $9.7M.

Staff reviewed the AAA bid package for completeness. In addition, the electronic bidding system the City utilizes eliminates mathematical errors in the bids, therefore the submitted bid results are as follows:

Excel Paving $2,398,297.90 $6,100,866.00 $268,460.00 $8,767,623.90 After analysis of the bids received, staff determined that AAA was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for the combined project. Recently, AAA successfully completed the construction of the Trabuco Road Rehabilitation from Bake Parkway to Peachwood, the Ascension Median Improvements, and Lake Forest Drive Rehabilitation from Bake Parkway to Portola Parkway. Staff conducted a reference check that indicated AAA is a responsible contractor (Attachment 2).

The Finance Department prepared the attached contract with AAA (Attachment 3). The City Attorney reviewed and approved the contract as to form. The contract bid amount as determined by the estimated quantities is $8,364,464.

Item: 9
47 Per Lake Forest Municipal Code Section 3.13.085, the City Manager may approve additional work not-to-exceed 10% of the final contract amount (i.e., $836,446). Due to size, the contract plans and specifications are not attached to the agenda; however, they are available for review upon request in the Office of the City Clerk. Staff have attached the approved signed title sheets for the combined project (Attachment 4).

Accordingly, the attached proposed budget resolution would appropriate the additional FCPP funds for the first two projects and reduce the General Fund (CIP) budget for the Arterial Median Improvement project as necessary to proceed with the construction phase of these projects (Attachment 5).

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approving the recommended action would appropriate sufficient funding in the 2025-2032 Capital Improvement Plan and award a construction contract to All American Asphalt, Inc. in the amount of $8,364,464. The total estimated project cost to construct, inspect, provide construction support, and provide contingency for the El Toro Road Corridor Improvements is $9.7 million. While the City has deposited $337,000 in escrow with the State of California, final right-of-way acquisition costs are pending.

3. Contractor shall post, at appropriate conspicuous points on the Project site, a schedule showing all determined general prevailing wage rates and all authorized deductions, if any, from unpaid wages actually earned.

5. Contractor’s entitlement to an extension of the Contract Time is limited to City-caused extension of the critical path, reduced by the Contractor’s concurrent delays, and established by a proper time impact analysis. No time extension shall be allowed unless, and then only to the extent that, the City-caused delay extends the critical path beyond the previously approved Contract Time.

1. Contractor shall not be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Time for delays within the control of Contractor. Delays attributable to and within the control of a subcontractor or supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor.

2. If Contractor is delayed in the performance or progress of the Work by fire, flood, epidemic, abnormal weather conditions (as determined by the City), Acts of God, acts or failures to act of utility owners not under the control of City, or other causes not the fault of and beyond control of the City and Contractor, then Contractor shall be entitled to an time extension when the affected Work is on the critical path. Such a non- compensable adjustment shall be Contractor’s sole and exclusive remedy for such delays. Contractor must submit a timely request in accordance with the requirements of this Article.

6. Requests for Contract Extension: Contractor’s justification for entitlement shall be clear and complete citing specific Contract Document references and reasons on which Contractor’s entitlement is based. At a minimum, each request for a time extension must include:

1. Each request for an extension of Contract Time must identify the impacting event, in narrative form, providing a description of the delay event and sufficient justification as to why the Contractor is entitled to a time extension. Contractor must demonstrate that the delay arises from unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of both Contractor and any Subcontractors or Suppliers, or any other persons or organizations employed by any of them or for whose acts any of them may be liable, and that such causes in fact lead to performance or completion of the Work, or specified part in question, beyond the corresponding Contract Times, despite Contractor’s reasonable and diligent actions to guard against those effects.

2. Each request for an extension of Contract Time must include a time impact analysis in CPM format to calculate the impact of the delay event.

7. Contractor’s failure, neglect, or refusal to comply with these requirements, or any portion thereof, shall bar Contractor’s request for extensions of the Contract Time. Such failure, neglect, or refusal prejudices the City’s ability to recognize and mitigate delay, and such failure, neglect, or refusal prevent the timely analysis of requests for extensions of Contract Time, and whether such extensions may be warranted.

In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the item cost set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail and, shall be utilized as the basis for determining the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. However, if the amount set forth as a unit price is ambiguous, unintelligible or uncertain for any cause, or is omitted, or is the same amount as the entry in the “Item Cost” column, then the amount set forth in the “Item Cost” 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. If any of the above discrepancies exist, the City may recalculate the bid price on the basis of the unit price and the bidder agrees to be bound by such recalculation. Final payment shall be determined by the City from measured quantities of work performed based upon the unit price.
