CITY OF LASE ELSINORE
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ron Molendyk, City Manager
DATE: September 28, 1993
SUBJECT: REJECTION OF BIDS FOR THE SUMMERHILL DRIVE
WALKWAY (DEL PIZZOLI TO PONTE RUSSO)
BACKGROUND
Staff has received requests from some of the residents of Tuscany
Hills for a sidewalk along Summerhill ",Drive from Del Pizzoli to
Ponte Russo so that school children would not have to walk in the
roadway on their way to Tuscany Hills Elementary School.
Homestead Homes, a developer of the Tuscany Hills Specific Plan
Area, was unable to complete the installation of concrete sidewalk
for their project because of financial difficulties. However, the
construction of the sidewalk remains a condition for the
development of the approved residential subdivision.
SUMMARY
On July 26, 1993, four bids were received for construction of a
temporary asphalt sidewalk from Del' Pizzoli to Ponte Russo.
Redlands Pacific General Engineering Contractors was the low bidder
with a -bid proposal of $14,444.00, as follows:
Redlands Pacific General Engineering Contractors $ 14,444.00
NPG Corporation 14,693.00
Atkinson Grading & Equipment Rental 16,690.00
Inland Asphalt and Coatings 68,935.00
The engineer's estimate prepared by staff was $15,000.00.
DISCUSSION
The City Council held discussions regarding award of contract for
the project at the Council Meeting on August 10, 1993. Primary
concern expressed was the benefit gained versus the amount of funds
expended and the proposed source of funding.
A representative of the developer (Homestead Homes) advised City
Council at the Council meeting on September 14, 1993, that the
parkway area behind the existing curb'�and gutter along Summerhill
Drive within the proposed project site has been graded and leveled.
This grading has provided an interim walkway area for safe access
to the school.
FISCAL IMPACT
None
Reject all bids. Accept the graded walkway area as the interim
means of access to Tuscany Hills Elementary School until such time
as the installation of concrete sidewalk by the developer is
completed.
