Acceptance of the Traffic Signal Controller Upgrades Project;
Bid No. 18-009, HMS Construction, Inc.
On December 5, 2017, the City Council awarded the contract for the Traffic Signal Controller
Upgrades Project; Bid No. 18-009, to HMS Construction, Inc., in the amount of $228,500.00. This
action will accept the project as complete.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended that the City Council:
(1) Accept the Traffic Signal Controller Upgrades Project as complete;
(2) Authorize the City Clerk to file and record the Notice of Completion;
(3) Authorize the release of the retention in the amount of $12,188.05, if unencumbered,
45 days after City Council acceptance; and
(4) Release the Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America Bond for Material
and Labor in the amount of $228,500.00 after the release of retention; and
(5) Retain the Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of America Bond for Faithful
Performance for a period of one year.
Discussion:
This project upgraded existing traffic signals on Twin Peaks Road at the intersections of Midland
Road, Community Road, and Silverset Road. Each intersection had been repaired multiple times
resulting in a lack of conduit space and usable wiring. The project replaced deteriorated and full
conduits as well as faulty wiring, with new larger conduits and conductors.
There were two Change Orders for this project which increased the overall contract amount by
$15,261.00 for additional pullboxes, extra excavation due to underground barriers and the
installation of a side mount battery back-up system. The final contract amount is $243,761.00.
Environmental Review:
The matter of acceptance of public improvements that have been completed, which were the
subject of a prior environmental determination, is not subject to the California Environmental
Quality Act.
