NOTICE OF COMPLETION FOR THE OCEAN BOULEVARD IMPROVEMENTS
PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Accept the Ocean Boulevard Improvements Project as complete;
2. Authorize the City Manager to sign, and the City Clerk to record, a Notice of Completion for the project.
BACKGROUND:
On December 21, 2021, the City Council awarded a contract to Granite Construction Company (Granite) for the Ocean Boulevard Improvements Project. The project included repairs to the damaged bluff face and infrastructure along Ocean Boulevard between Morro and Cuyama Avenues as well as improvements to coastal access along Ocean Boulevard between Vista Del Mar and Wawona Avenues.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Granite has completed the contracted services, and the Ocean Boulevard Improvements Project has been completed in accordance with the plans, specifications, and contract documents, however the completion date of the project was 54 days past the contracted end date. Staff has issued a change order imposing liquated damages in the amount of $54,000 in accordance with the terms of the executed project contract. Staff recommends that the City Council accept the project as complete and authorize the Notice of Completion (Attachment 1) to be recorded at the County Clerk’s office.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this report, however it should be noted that the project was completed $87,829 below the $5,172,223 awarded contracted amount.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Since Granite has completed its contractual obligations, the only option recommended is for City Council to approve the Notice of Completion.
