ITEM: DISCUSS AND CONSIDER AWARDING A
CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO DIRT DYNASTY, INC.
FOR LATHROP ROAD RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY
RECONSTRUCTION CIP GG 24-7 AND APPROVING A
BUDGET AMENDMENT
RECOMMENDATION: Discuss and Consider Adopting a Resolution to Award a Construction Contract to Dirt Dynasty, Inc.
for the Lathrop Road Residential Driveway
Reconstruction, CIP GG 24-7 and Approve a Budget
Amendment
SUMMARY:
In 2017, the City constructed the Lathrop Road Widening that included including installation of driveway transitions from the new roadway improvements to existing residential driveways. The City required property owners to sign a " Right of Entry" Agreement to allow the City' scontractor to enter their property to complete this work.
The property owner of 570 Lathrop Road decided not to sign the " Right of Entry" Agreement at that time, even after multiple requests by staff; thus the contractor was unable to construct that transition.
During the August 14, 2023 City Council Meeting, the property owner of 570 Lathrop Road made a request for the City to construct their driveway transition and Council asked staff to bring the item back to Council for consideration. On September 11, 2023, City Council approved the creation of Capital Improvement Project ( CIP) GG 24-7 for Lathrop Road Residential Driveway Reconstruction ( Project) and allocated 20, 000 to the Project. The goal of the Project is to reconstruct the residential driveway at 570 Lathrop Road to the condition that was proposed in 2017 with the Lathrop Road Widening Project.
The bid solicitation package with plans and specifications for the construction of the Project was advertised on January 4, 2024, in accordance with Bidding Procedures in California Public Contract Code ( PCC) 22034 and Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC)
3.0. 060. The City received and opened five ( 5) bids on January 18, 2024. Based on the review and evaluation of the bids, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for construction of the Project was determined to be Dirt Dynasty, Inc. (Dirt Dynasty) with a bid of $ 40,92.
Staff requests City Council discuss and consider awarding a construction contract to Dirt Dynasty for construction of the Project in the amount of $40,92 and authorize a 10% construction contingency of $ 4, 049 for a total cost not to exceed $ 44, 541. 878

BACKGROUND:
Prior to, and during construction of the Lathrop Road Widening Project ( PS 02- 24), staff coordinated with all adjacent property owners to transition the new roadway improvements to their existing driveways. Most transitions occurred on private property and required the property owner to sign a " Right of Entry" Agreement to allow the City' s contractor to enter the property to complete the work. The property owner of 570 Lathrop Road decided not to sign the " Right of Entry" Agreement at that time, even after multiple requests by staff.
In 2017, the City' s contractor proceeded with the project including the installation of the transition but was unable to construct the transition for 570 Lathrop Road absent of the " Right of Entry" Agreement.
On August 14, 2023 City Council requested that an item be brought back to discuss the reconstruction of a residential driveway at 570 Lathrop Road. Staff coordinated with the property owner on the scope of work required to construct a new driveway transition. On September 11, 2023, City Council approved the creation of CIP GG 24-7 and an initial budget of $ 20, 000.
Staff prepared the bid solicitation package with plans and specifications for the construction of the Project and advertised them on January 4, 2024 in accordance with Bidding Procedures in California Public Contract Code ( PCC) 22034 and Lathrop Municipal Code ( LMC) 3.0. 060.
Five ( 5) bids were received; each determined to be responsive and responsible. The bid results are summarized in Table 1 below:
