STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:
The City is responsible for maintaining sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and driveways in compliance with ADA and other regulations. To support capital projects, replace
deteriorated facilities, and correct accessibility
deficiencies, the City will establish as-needed contracts for concrete construction and repair. These contracts will provide flexible support for capital improvement projects, ADA upgrades, emergency repairs, and other concrete
work within City facilities and the public right-of-way. For these reasons, City staff are proposing four on-call, as- needed contracts for concrete construction and repair
services.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: ADOPT a resolution and APPROVE as-needed concrete construction and repair contracts to (1) Calico California Constructores Inc., (2) Inder Design Build LLC (dba
Iengco), (3) Ruvalcabo Paving Inc., and (4) Yerba Buena Engineering & Construction Inc., each in an amount not
to exceed $2,000,000, over an initial three-year term
effective upon contract execution; and AUTHORIZE the
City Manager, or designee, to approve up to two optional one-year extensions at an amount not-to-exceed
$500,000 per year, per contractor, subject to budget
availability – Public Works (Dan Santos 620-6645/Robert Armijo 620-5477).
DISCUSSION
The City of Richmond is responsible for ensuring the safety, accessibility, and maintenance of public sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and driveways in compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards and applicable local and state regulations. To support ongoing capital projects construct new facilities, replace deteriorated elements, and address accessibility deficiencies, the City is establishing as-needed construction contracts for concrete construction and repair services throughout the City.
These contracts will allow the Public Works Department to quickly assign qualified contractors for curb ramp construction, sidewalk replacement, street and driveway approaches, gutter and curb work, and other concrete improvements in the public right- of-way. The as-needed contract structure provides scheduling flexibility and procurement efficiency, particularly when supporting time-sensitive projects such as paving, utility coordination, or emergency improvements.
The City publicly advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the City-wide As- Needed Citywide Concrete Repair Project on June 6, 2025, via BidsOnline. Proposals were due on July 7, 2025, and reviewed by a panel of City staff based on criteria

Following the evaluation process, Calico California Constructores Inc., Yerba Buena Engineering & Construction Inc., Inder Design Build LLC (dba Iengco), and Ruvalcabo Paving Inc. were selected based on their strong technical qualifications, demonstrated project performance, and ability to meet the City’s scheduling and quality control requirements.
City staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution awarding as-needed construction and repair contracts to the four selected firms. Each contract will have a not-to-exceed amount of $2,000,000 for an initial three-year term, with the option of two one-year extensions at $500,000 per year, per contractor. Work will be assigned through individually authorized Work Authorizations and funded through existing or budgeted Capital Improvement Program (CIP) accounts or other eligible sources. All work will conform to the City of Richmond’s Standard Plans and specifications.
These contracts will enhance the City's ability to meet ADA compliance goals, reduce sidewalk-related hazards, and support scheduled and emergency infrastructure needs efficiently and cost-effectively.
