Tulare City Council Page 3
Agenda Memo - February 20, 2024
The Subdivider, D.R. Horton CA3, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, has completed construction of all required public works improvements for Phase 2 of the Oakcrest subdivision in accordance with approved plans and specifications.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): N/A
Legal Review: The City’s standard Notice of Completion format has been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes - No impact; 2) Deny - Not approving the NOC would prevent residents from occupying their recently purchased homes; or 3) Table - A delay in the City accepting the improvements would prevent residents from occupying their recently purchased homes.
7.5 Notice of Completion for Project EN0094 - Sycamore and San Joaquin Improvements.
Recommended Action: Accept as complete the contract with Floyd Johnston Construction Co., Inc. of Clovis Ca, for Project EN0094 – Sycamore and San Joaquin Improvements. [M. Miller]
Summary: Capital Improvement Program Project EN0094 is a street and utility improvement project on the following street segments:
• King Avenue between O Street and Cherry Street,
• Sycamore Avenue between Cherry Street and Blackstone Street, • San Joaquin Avenue between O Street and Blackstone Street, • Madden Street between Tulare Avenue and King Street,
• Delwood Street between Sycamore Avenue and San Joaquin Avenue, and • Highland Street between Tulare Avenue and Sycamore Avenue.
The project reconstructed the street section and included ADA compliance improvements to intersection curb returns and alley/sidewalk intersections that fell within the project limits. Additionally, it addressed necessary water, sewer and storm drain improvements within those limits. The need for the project was identified through the City’s Pavement Management System and a review of the condition of the City’s utility infrastructure. This project was included as a part of the City’s 2021-2026 transportation and utility CIP budget.
On April 19, 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to Floyd Johnston Construction of Clovis Ca, in the amount of $6,652,485.50. Additional work was performed consisting of changes requested by Engineering, Streets, Water and Sewer Departments due to unforeseen and differing field conditions encountered during construction. This included replacement of additional driveways, curb and gutter, additional hot mix asphalt, and aesthetic improvements found to be in the best interest of the City. A summary of contract costs as follows:
Approved Contract Amount: $6,652,485.50
Bid Item Quantity Adjustments: $ -199,063.76
Tulare City Council Page 4
Agenda Memo - February 20, 2024
Contract Change Orders – Various: $104,333.93
Total Construction Contract Cost: $6,550,620.17
All work required of Floyd Johnston Construction under this contract has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. The contractor has also provided the required Maintenance Bond in the amount equal to 10% of the final contract amount.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): This project was funded through a combination of Gas Tax, Water, Sewer and Surface Water funds.
EN0094
Fund 122 - Gas Tax (RMRA-SB1)
Fund 021 - Measure R-Local
Fund 077 - CDBG
Fund 610 - Water CIP (Bonds)
Fund 615 - Sewer Wastewater CIP
Fund 647 – Surface Water CIP
Legal Review: Not applicable.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny - Should Council deny the request to accept as complete the contract with Floyd Johnston Construction at this time, it would prevent the City from filing a notice of completion with the County Recorder’s Office and releasing payment of the retention amount owed $330,374.83 to the Contractor. The start of the 1-year maintenance bond on the project would be postponed, increasing liability to the contractor. Without specific written findings of justification for denial, this action could open the City up to litigation; or 3) Table - The postponement of filing the notice of completion after final acceptance of the project requirements, may result in the City owing the Contractors interest on monies withheld. Postponement of notice of completion ties up the Contractors bonding capacity preventing them from bidding on alternate projects. Causing such delay to the contractor could open the City up to litigation for damages.
7.6 Monthly Investments Report.
Recommended Action: Accept the monthly investments report for December 2023. [M. Gaboardi]
Summary: The investment report for December 2023 is submitted for Council review and acceptance.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
Legal Review: This item does not require legal review.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes; 2) Deny; or 3) Table.

8. GENERAL BUSINESS - Comments related to General Business items are limited to three minutes per speaker, for a maximum of thirty minutes per item, unless otherwise extended by the Council. [Time Estimate: 7:55-8:15 p.m.]
8.1 Closure of Portion of Sonora Avenue to Vehicular Traffic.
Recommended Action: Approve a resolution authorizing the temporary closure of a portion of Sonora Avenue between Sacramento Street and Howard Street for the protection of persons attending Mulcahy Middle School and Roosevelt Elementary School. [J. McDonnell]
Summary: The Tulare City School District (District) is undertaking a series of multiyear improvement projects at both Mulcahy Middle School and Roosevelt Elementary School. Currently, children from these schools, located immediately across the street from each other, are crossing Sonora Avenue between the facilities on a daily basis for educational purposes.
In an effort to increase the protection of persons attending the two schools, the District has requested that the City consider closing Sonora Avenue to vehicular traffic during school hours when school is in session. They propose to establish a temporary closure operation similar to that of Tulare Union High School along Kern Avenue. As is the case with Tulare Union’s temporary closure activities, the District would assume responsibility for acquiring and operating the associated temporary closure signs and paraphernalia, the content and type of which would be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
City staff, including Public Works and Police Department personnel as well as the City Engineer, have reviewed the District’s request and agree that the temporary closure plan would result in a safer environment for school children attending Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools. In addition, staff confirmed that adjacent streets to the north (Inyo) and south (Elm) are sufficiently sized to accommodate any additional traffic stemming from the temporary closure of Sonora during school hours.
The temporary closure would affect vehicular access to two residences on Sonora; however, the City Engineer has worked with District staff to identify signs and barriers that could be utilized in a manner during temporary closures that would allow for continued vehicular access during closures. Similarly, the temporary closure would require a change to child drop-off and pick-up locations; however, the District has provided a plan to the City Engineer for the delineation of new areas for drop-off and pick-up that were found to be acceptable.
Given the daily pedestrian traffic occurring between Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools, the added pedestrian safety that would result from the temporary closure, the ability of adjacent streets to accommodate the minimal additional traffic, and the negligible cost to the City for operating and maintaining the temporary closure, staff recommends approval of the District’s proposal to temporarily close Sonora Avenue between Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools during school hours.
Fiscal Impact & Funding Source(s): No impact. The District will assume the responsibility for acquisition, operation, and maintenance of all signage and barriers Tulare City Council Page 6
Agenda Memo - February 20, 2024
associated with the temporary closure of Sonora Avenue at this location during school hours.
Legal Review: Not applicable.
Alternative Action: 1) Approve with changes - Direct staff to discuss alternatives for sign and barrier location as well as acquisition, operation, and maintenance of said material; 2) Deny - Do not move forward with allowing the temporary closure of Sonora Avenue in this location; or 3) Table - Direct staff to research additional material associated with temporary street closures and return to Council at a later date.

Agenda Title: Notice of Completion for Project EN0094 - Sycamore and San Joaquin Improvements
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Accept as complete the contract with Floyd Johnston Construction Co., Inc. of Clovis Ca, for CIP Project EN0094 – Sycamore and San Joaquin Improvements.
SUMMARY
Capital Improvement Program Project EN0094 is a street and utility improvement project on the following street segments:
• King Avenue between O Street and Cherry Street,
• Sycamore Avenue between Cherry Street and Blackstone Street, • San Joaquin Avenue between O Street and Blackstone Street, • Madden Street between Tulare Avenue and King Street,
• Delwood Street between Sycamore Avenue and San Joaquin Avenue, and • Highland Street between Tulare Avenue and Sycamore Avenue.
The project reconstructed the street section and included ADA compliance improvements to intersection curb returns and alley/sidewalk intersections that fell within the project limits.
Additionally, it addressed necessary water, sewer and storm drain improvements within those limits. The need for the project was identified through the City’s Pavement Management System and a review of the condition of the City’s utility infrastructure. This project was included as a part of the City’s 2021-2026 transportation and utility CIP budget.
On April 19, 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to Floyd Johnston Construction of Clovis Ca, in the amount of $6,652,485.50. Additional work was performed consisting of changes requested by Engineering, Streets, Water and Sewer Departments due to unforeseen and differing field conditions encountered during construction. This included replacement of additional driveways, curb and gutter, additional hot mix asphalt, and aesthetic improvements found to be in the best interest of the City. A summary of contract costs as follows:
Approved Contract Amount: $6,652,485.50
Bid Item Quantity Adjustments: $ -199,063.76
Contract Change Orders – Various: $104,333.93
Total Construction Contract Cost: $6,550,620.17
All work required of Floyd Johnston Construction under this contract has been completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. The contractor has also provided the required Maintenance Bond in the amount equal to 10% of the final contract amount.

Fund 122 - Gas Tax (RMRA-SB1)

Fund 615 - Sewer Wastewater CIP
Fund 647 – Surface Water CIP
LEGAL REVIEW
Not Applicable.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
1. Approve with changes.
2. Deny - Should Council deny the request to accept as complete the contract with Floyd Johnston Construction at this time, it would prevent the City from filing a notice of completion with the County Recorder’s Office and releasing payment of the retention amount owed $330,374.83 to the Contractor. The start of the 1-year maintenance bond on the project would be postponed, increasing liability to the contractor. Without specific written findings of justification for denial, this action could open the City up to litigation.
3. Table - The postponement of filing the notice of completion after final acceptance of the project requirements, may result in the City owing the Contractors interest on monies withheld. Postponement of notice of completion ties up the Contractors bonding capacity preventing them from bidding on alternate projects. Causing such delay to the contractor could open the City up to litigation for damages.

Meeting: City Council
Date: February 20, 2024
Department: City Manager
Submitted by: Josh McDonnell, Assistant City Manager
Agenda Title: Closure of Portion of Sonora Avenue to Vehicular Traffic
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve a resolution authorizing the temporary closure of a portion of Sonora Avenue between Sacramento Street and Howard Street for the protection of persons attending Mulcahy Middle School and Roosevelt Elementary School.
SUMMARY
The Tulare City School District (District) is undertaking a series of multi-year improvement projects at both Mulcahy Middle School and Roosevelt Elementary School. Currently, children from these schools, located immediately across the street from each other, are crossing Sonora Avenue between the facilities on a daily basis for educational purposes.
In an effort to increase the protection of persons attending the two schools, the District has requested that the City consider closing Sonora Avenue to vehicular traffic during school hours when school is in session. They propose to establish a temporary closure operation similar to that of Tulare Union High School along Kern Avenue. As is the case with Tulare Union’s temporary closure activities, the District would assume responsibility for acquiring and operating the associated temporary closure signs and paraphernalia, the content and type of which would be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
City staff, including Public Works and Police Department personnel as well as the City Engineer, have reviewed the District’s request and agree that the temporary closure plan would result in a safer environment for school children attending Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools. In addition, staff confirmed that adjacent streets to the north (Inyo) and south (Elm) are sufficiently sized to accommodate any additional traffic stemming from the temporary closure of Sonora during school hours.
The temporary closure would affect vehicular access to two residences on Sonora; however, the City Engineer has worked with District staff to identify signs and barriers that could be utilized in a manner during temporary closures that would allow for continued vehicular access during closures. Similarly, the temporary closure would require a change to child drop-off and pick-up locations; however, the District has provided a plan to the City Engineer for the delineation of new areas for drop-off and pick-up that were found to be acceptable.
Given the daily pedestrian traffic occurring between Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools, the added pedestrian safety that would result from the temporary closure, the ability of adjacent streets to accommodate the minimal additional traffic, and the negligible cost to the City for operating and maintaining the temporary closure, staff recommends approval of the District’s proposal to temporarily close Sonora Avenue between Mulcahy and Roosevelt schools during school hours.
