The majority of streets within the project, which includes Louise Street, Adelle Street, and Lorna Street, from Grove Boulevard to Stanford Avenue; Josephine Street from Anthony Avenue to Stanford Avenue, Acacia Avenue and Stanford Avenue from Dale Street to Josephine Street; had failing pavement, and lacked curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and driveway approaches. New curb, gutter, sidewalk and driveway approaches were constructed for all streets that required them. All streets in this neighborhood were reconstructed to new condition.  Additionally, this project included pavement rehabilitation along Woolley Lane, Acacia Ave and Anthony Avenue, all located on east side of Josephine Street.   The project also included upgrades to 125 water service laterals.

On April 11, 2023, City Council awarded the project to Sully-Miller Contracting Company being the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.  On May 20, 2023, construction started, and on December 15, 2023, the construction was completed 11 days prior to the estimated completion date.

Sully-Miller completed the project in accordance with the plans, specifications, and other contract documents.

There is no impact to the General Fund.  This improvement was funded by the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), Gas Tax, Measure M, and Water Funds.

It is recommended that the City Council:

• Accept Project CP-1259000, Various Residential Streets Reconstruction 2023  (Acacia-Josephine neighborhood) as complete;

• Authorize the City Manager to execute the Notice of Completion of Public Works Improvement and Work; and

• Authorize the Finance Director to release the retention payment when appropriate to do so.
