Concrete Replacement Program Fiscal Year 2024-25 – Notice of Completion for Contract No. 9715-1 (25R06) ABSTRACT:

On November 19, 2024, the City Council awarded Contract No. 9715-1 for the Concrete Replacement Program Fiscal Year 2024-25 project to Towo Enterprise, Inc. The project replaced deteriorated concrete sidewalks, driveways, curbs and gutters, and access ramps in the Spyglass Hill, Newport Hills, Harbor View, and Seawind communities, in addition to various City of Newport Beach parks in the nearby area. The work is now complete and staff requests City Council acceptance and close out of the contract.

RECOMMENDATION:
a) Accept the completed work and authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion for the project.

84 This project included distributing construction notices to affected residents and businesses; setting up traffic control; surveying; adjusting utility boxes to grade; tree root pruning; tree removal and replacement; and removing and replacing various types of concrete hardscaping in the Spyglass Hill, Newport Hills, Harbor View, and Seawind communities and at various City parks in the nearby area. Refer to the attached location map to see the project area.

The contracted work has been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. A summary of the construction cost is as follows:

Original Bid Amount:
$
1,586,380.00
Actual Cost of Bid Items Constructed:
$
1,433,261.00
Total Change Orders:
$
202,847.75
Final Contract Cost:
$
1,636,108.75
The final total contract amount was $1,636,108.75, which was approximately 3.1% higher than the original bid amount. This minor cost increase was primarily due to adding more concrete replacement work to improve the condition of public hardscaping within the project area. In addition, thicker than anticipated concrete panels were found at City parks, which also contributed to the increased costs.

A summary of the project schedule milestones is as follows:

Estimated Start of Construction per Annual Baseline Schedule December 2, 2024
Actual Start of Construction Per Notice to Proceed
December 9, 2024
Estimated Completion per Annual Baseline Schedule
May 16, 2025
Substantial Completion Date Inclusive of Extra Work

Additional time was given to the contractor to complete the work due to rain delays and staff adding change order work to the project. The contractor was able to complete all the proposed improvements, including the change order work, within the time allotted.
