Approve Budget Adjustment in the amount of $315,000 from the undesignated fund balance in Fund 416; 3. Accept the withdrawal of the bid submitted by LCR Earthwork & Engineering, Corp. 3200 Guasti Road, Suite 100, Ontario, CA 91761; 4. Award a construction contract to Black Rock Construction Company, 929 Mariner Street, Brea, CA 92821, in the amount of $976,000 (base bid plus additive bid); 5. Authorize an additional $59,000 as needed for construction change orders and for construction engineering; and 6. Authorize the City Manager and the City Clerk to execute the Public Works Agreement (PWA) Attachment 1, and authorize the City Manager to execute future contract amendments within Council authorized limits. 2 BACKGROUND: The City owns and maintains 129 alleys. On November 20, 2007, a Citywide Alley Improvement Report was presented to the City Council. At that meeting, the Council approved a Citywide Alley Improvement Priority List to address the City’s alley system beginning with those alleys in most need of improvements. Over the past twelve years, 94 alleys have been reconstructed. This project includes rehabilitation of the following six alleys: 1. Plumer Street Alley (Alley No. 06) located between Plumer Street and Center Street, from Alley No. 07 to Pomona Avenue. 2. Wallace Avenue Alley (Alley No. 13), located between Wallace Avenue and Placentia Avenue from 20th Street to 19th Street. 3. 17th Street Alley (Alley No. 55), located between 17th Street and Ogle Street, from Irvine Avenue to end. 4. Tustin Avenue Alley (Alley No. 60), located between 16th Street and Ramona Way, from Tustin Avenue to 16th Street. 5. Rosemary Place Alley (Alley No. 105), located between 20th Street and Costa Mesa Street, from Orange Avenue to 20th Street. 6. Costa Mesa Street Alley (Alley No. 114) located between Costa Mesa Street and 19th Street, from Irvine Avenue to Tustin Avenue. A Location Map has been included as Attachment 2. ANALYSIS: The alley rehabilitation process consists of removal of deteriorated asphalt concrete alley sections and construction of new Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement sections, adjustment of water and sewer utilities to grade, and other incidental work needed to transition between new and existing improvements. The City Clerk received and opened thirteen (13) bids for this project on November 16, 2020. On November 19, 2020, LCR Earthwork & Engineering, Corp. submitted a letter withdrawing their bid for Project No. 20-20 (Attachment 4). According to the State of California Public Contract Code, Chapter 5, Relief of Bidders- PCC § 5103, a bidder may withdraw due to following reasons: (a) A mistake was made. (b) He or she gave the public entity written notice within five working days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and state holidays, after the opening of the bids of the mistake, specifying in the notice in detail how the mistake occurred. (c) The mistake made the bid materially different than he or she intended it to be. (d) The mistake was made in filling out the bid and not due to error in judgment or to carelessness in inspecting the site of the work, or in reading the plans or specifications. LCR Earthwork & Engineering, Corp is withdrawing their bid based on clerical errors. Staff requests City Council approval to accept the withdrawal of the bid. 3 Black Rock Construction is the new apparent low bidder with a base bid proposal of $864,000 and total bid of $976,000 including the additive item. Consistent with the public contract code and the contract documents, the apparent low bidder was determined based on the Base Bid of all the bidders without consideration of any additive bid items. In addition to the Base Bid, the City also asked for bid pricing for an additive bid item to include the rehabilitation of Alley no. 6 (Plumer Street Alley). The price provided by Black Rock Construction to include Alley No. 6 is found to be acceptable and the additive bid item for Alley No. 6 is included as part of Black Rock’s total contract bid proposal of $976,000. Staff recommends award of the construction contract for this project, including the additive item to Black Rock Construction. The base bid Engineer’s estimate was $1,013,304; and the average of the twelve (12) bids remaining amounts to $1,084,118. The Bid Abstract is included as Attachment 3. Analysis of the bids indicates the new apparent low bidder submitted a base bid proposal that is 15% lower than the Engineer’s estimate. The license and references of Black Rock Construction Company have been checked and staff has determined them to be in good standing. Black Rock Construction Company has successfully completed other City projects, including the rehabilitation of several alleys in Fiscal Years 2016-2017, 2017-2018 and 2018-2019. Upon City Council award of the contract, Black Rock Construction will furnish the necessary bonds and insurance, which will be approved as to form by the Office of Risk Management. After the award and subsequent execution of the contract, a “Notice to Proceed” will be issued. A copy of plans, specifications and working details are available for review in the Office of the City Clerk or in the Public Services Department, and are posted on the City website at: https://www.costamesaca.gov/city-hall/city-departments/public-services/capital- improvement-projects/ ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED: The alternative to this Council action would be to reject all the bids. If all the bids are rejected, the City would need to re-advertise the project. Staff believes that re-advertising the project will not result in lower bids. FISCAL REVIEW: Available funds for this project include $720,000 (201-19200-30112-400012) from the Gas Tax Fund. Additional funding for this project is available from undesignated fund balances from the Measure M fund in the amount of $315,000 (416-19200-30112- 400012). 4 LEGAL REVIEW: The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed this report, prepared the Public Works Agreement, and approves them both as to form. CITY COUNCIL GOALS & PRIORITIES: This project works toward achieving the following City Council goals and priorities: Goal 2: Improve our Neighborhoods and Quality of Life. (g) Invest in infrastructure improvements including streets, sidewalks, bikeways, alleyways, storm drains, parkways, medians, and trees to ensure all areas of town. This includes updating our Parkway and Median Standards and exploring the possibility of becoming a Tree City USA. (i) Develop and implement the Westside Restoration Plan. Goal 5: Improve Mobility and Parking. (d) Ensure strong investment in our roads. CONCLUSION: The City has received and opened bids for Alley Rehabilitation Project (Alley Nos. 06, 13, 55, 60, 105, 114) - City Project No. 20-20. Staff has evaluated the bids and recommends that the City Council: 1.

The defense obligation provided for hereunder shall apply without any advance showing of negligence or wrongdoing by the CONTRACTOR, its employees, and/or authorized subcontractors, but shall be required whenever any claim, action, complaint, or suit asserts as its basis the negligence, errors, omissions or misconduct of the CONTRACTOR, its employees, and/or authorized subcontractors, and/or whenever any claim, action, complaint or suit asserts liability against the CITY, its elected officials, officers, agents and employees based upon the work performed by the CONTRACTOR, its employees, and/or authorized subcontractors under this Agreement, whether or not the CONTRACTOR, its employees, and/or authorized subcontractors are specifically named or otherwise asserted to be liable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the CONTRACTOR shall not be liable for the defense or indemnification of the CITY for claims, actions, complaints or suits arising out of the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of the CITY.

CITY does not, and shall not, waive any rights against CONTRACTOR which it may have by reason of the above hold harmless agreements, because of the acceptance by CITY or the deposit with CITY by CONTRACTOR of any or all of the insurance policies described in Paragraph 21 (Insurance) of this Agreement. The hold harmless agreements by CONTRACTOR shall apply to all liabilities, expenses, claims, and damages of every kind (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) incurred or alleged to have been incurred, by reason of the operations of CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor or others performing on behalf of CONTRACTOR, whether or not such insurance policies are applicable. CONTRACTOR shall require any and all tiers of subcontractors to afford the same degree of indemnification to the CITY OF COSTA MESA and its elected and appointed boards, officers, agents, and employees that is required of CONTRACTOR and shall incorporate identical indemnity provisions in all contracts between CONTRACTOR and all tiers of its subcontractors. In the event that CONTRACTOR and CITY are sued by a third party for damages Project and Specification No. 20-20 9 caused or allegedly caused by negligent or other wrongful conduct of CONTRACTOR, or by a dangerous condition of CITY’s property created by CONTRACTOR or existing while the property was under the control of CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall not be relieved of its indemnity obligation to CITY by any settlement with any such third party unless that settlement includes a full release and dismissal of all claims by the third party against the CITY. 21. INSURANCE. (a) Minimum Scope and Limits of Insurance. CONTRACTOR shall not commence Work under this Agreement until it has obtained all insurance required under this Paragraph 21 and CITY has approved the insurance as to form, amount, and carrier, nor shall CONTRACTOR allow any subcontractor to commence any Work until all similar insurance required of the subcontractor has been obtained and approved. CONTRACTOR shall obtain, maintain, and keep in full force and effect during the life of this Agreement all of the following minimum scope of insurance coverages with an insurance company admitted to do business in California, rated “A,” Class X, or better in the most recent Best’s Key Insurance Rating Guide, and approved by CITY: (i) Commercial general liability, including premises-operations, products/completed operations, broad form property damage, blanket contractual liability, independent contractors, personal injury or bodily injury with a policy limit of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00), combined single limits, per occurrence.

Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions: Project and Specification No. 20-20 10 (1) A drop down feature requiring the policy to respond in the event that any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectable in whole or in part for any reason; (2) Pay on behalf of wording as opposed to reimbursement; (3) Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies; (4) Policies shall “follow form” to underlying primary policies; and (5) Insureds under primary policies shall also be insureds under the umbrella or excess policies.

Any other insurance maintained by the City of Costa Mesa shall be excess and not contributing with the insurance provided by this policy.” (c) Reporting Provisions. Any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with the reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City of Costa Mesa, its officers, officials, agents, employees, and volunteers. (d) Insurance Applies Separately. CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability. (e) Deductible or Self-Insured Retention. If any of such policies provide for a deductible or self-insured retention to provide such coverage, the amount of such deductible or self-insured retention shall be approved in advance by CITY. No policy of insurance issued as to which the CITY is an additional insured shall contain a provision which requires that no insured except the named insured can satisfy any such deductible or self-insured retention. (f) Proof of Insurance. Prior to commencement of the Work, CONTRACTOR shall furnish CITY, through the Project Manager, proof of compliance with the above insurance requirements in a form satisfactory to City’s Risk Management.
