SUBJECT: WORK ORDER NO. A010139-2016-29 APPROVAL – COFFEY PARK AND FOUNTAINGROVE NEIGHBORHOOD ROAD DISASTER RECOVERY, CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND INSPECTION SERVICES AGENDA ACTION: MOTION
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended by the Transportation and Public Works Department that the Council, by motion, approve work order number A010139-2016-29 with Coastland | DCCM, of Santa Rosa, California, for construction management and inspection services associated with the Coffey Park and Fountaingrove Neighborhood Road Disaster Recovery Project, in an amount not to exceed $1,562,459.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This motion will approve work order #A010139-2016-29 in the amount of $1,562,459 with Coastland | DCCM of Santa Rosa, California, for construction management and inspection services associated with Coffey Park and Fountaingrove Neighborhood Road Disaster Recovery Project. The scope of the project involves the rehabilitation and strengthening of approximately 33 miles of residential roads in Coffey Park and Fountaingrove that were damaged by the debris removal after the 2017 Tubbs Fire.
BACKGROUND
In 2017, the City of Santa Rosa experienced the unprecedented Tubbs wildfire event. At the time, the Tubbs Fire was the most destructive wildfire in California history, with more than 2,500 homes destroyed in Santa Rosa alone. This correlates to an approximate loss of five percent (5%) of the City’s housing stock and an estimated economic loss of $1.2 billion. Following the Tubbs Fire in 2017, the City of Santa Rosa, in coordination with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, began a debris removal operation to remove hazardous burned material from the Coffey Park and Fountaingrove neighborhoods of the city. This operation included thousands of truck trips on residential roads not designed to accommodate such loading. Roads along the truck haul routes experienced significant damage as a direct result of the required debris removal operations which has led to premature pavement failure on over 33 miles of residential streets within the City of Santa Rosa.
The City Materials Lab has assessed all streets damaged as a result of the debris removal operation and determined appropriate treatments. Lab staff have recommended two treatment options; for streets with localized asphalt failures, a digout repair and slurry seal treatment will be used, while streets that exhibit a more global failure will receive a mill and fill asphalt overlay treatment. Generally, Coffey Park neighborhood streets will predominantly receive a mill and fill treatment, while Fountaingrove neighborhood streets will receive a combination of digout/slurry seal and mill and fill treatments. Treatment recommendations were established with the assistance of the City’s Pavement Management Program, StreetSaver, which considers a number of factors including severity and type of asphalt distress, asphalt treatment cost effectiveness, and roadway classification.
PRIOR CITY COUNCIL REVIEW
On March 23, 2021, the City Council, by Resolution No. RES-2021-052, approved an allocation of funding, an application for funding and the execution of a grant agreement and any amendments thereto from the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program and/or Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) program.
On April 13, 2021, the City Council, by motion, revised Resolution No. RES-2021-052, which authorized certain City staff to enter into agreements and execute other documents with California Housing and Community Development (HCD) for CDBG projects CDBG-DR and CDBG-MIT, developed in response to the 2017 Tubbs Fire, to include the total allocation of CDBG funds.
On July 13, 2021, the City Council reviewed a Study Session presentation discussing the use of one-time monies that identified this project as a candidate to receive PG&E settlement and CDBG funds.
ANALYSIS
A Request for Proposals (RFP) was released on July 3, 2023, and proposals were received on July 31, 2023. A total of four (4) proposals were received.
A review panel comprised of three City staff from the Transportation and Public Works Department was approved by the City Manager.
Proposals were evaluated based on responsiveness to the RFP, qualifications and experience of the project team, demonstrated technical abilities, availability to perform the scope of work, a proposed work plan, and reference projects. The review panel concluded that Coastland | DCCM of Santa Rosa, California, is the most qualified proposer to provide construction management and inspection services for this project.
