RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council award contract to Contreras Construction
Co., for Bid Schedules A and B, in the amount of $162,730.00, for the 1999/2000
PM-10 Control Measure Paving Project, City Project 99-21.
SUMMARY:
Award of this contract will provide for the construction of interim street improvements
on Indian Canyon Drive from San Marco Way to San Rafael Drive, including 4 foot
pavement widening with asphalt berm on the adjacent dirt shoulder; and
construction of ultimate street improvements, including pavement widening,
construction of curb, gutter, sidewalk, and a concrete bus turn-out on Vista Chino
adjacent to the vacant City-owned parcel north of the Vista Serena senior housing
project.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Palm Springs received a Congestion Management Air Quality (CMAQ)
TEA21 grant forstreet improvements along Indian Canyon Drive and Vista Chino to
improve those portions of streets that lack full improvements and cause dust control
(PM-10)problems with vehicles leaving the paved roadway. Staff has identified that
segment of Indian Canyon Drive, between San Marco Way and San Rafael Drive,
and that portion of Vista Chino just west of Sunrise Way, as problem areas where
full street improvements do not exist and where traffic can cause PM-10 problems.
Additionally,the City received an SB 821 sidewalk safety grant through the Riverside
County Transportation Commission for construction of sidewalk improvements at the
Vista Chino project location. The SB 821 grant will pay for the construction of an 8
to 10 foot wide concrete sidewalk and bikeway along Vista Chino and the proposed
bus turnout.
Plans and specifications forthis projectwere prepared by staff from the Engineering
Department. On April 3, 2002, the Council approved and adopted the plans and
specifications for this project, and authorized advertisement for construction bids.
