RECOMMENDATION(S):

CONTINUE the emergency action taken by the Board of Supervisors originally on March 7, 2017, pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050, for the Morgan Territory Road Slide Repair Project, Clayton area. Project No. 0672-6U6203 (District III); and

RECEIVE report from Public Works Director of actions taken to procure necessary equipment, services, and supplies for the above emergency repair project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total cost of the project is not expected to exceed $7,000,000. The project will be funded by Local Road Funds (100%). County staff is actively pursuing reimbursement through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) as a result of the State and Federal emergency declarations.

BACKGROUND:

On March 7, 2017, the Board of Supervisors declared an emergency and authorized the Public Works Director to proceed in the most expeditious manner to repair the washed out portion of Morgan Territory Road approximately one mile south of Marsh Creek Road.

Repair Status: On April 13, 2017, the road was reopened to a one-lane condition over the slide under traffic signal control.

The repair work requires the installation of two structural retaining wall systems, excavation and backfill of embankment between the wall systems, reconstruction of pavement, drainage improvements, and pavement striping. A temporary road will also need to be constructed to allow residents to access Marsh Creek Road, as Morgan Territory Road will be closed at the slide repair site during construction. This temporary road will be constructed between the top of Leon Drive, across two open parcels, and tie into the Marsh Creek Detention facility access road and then Marsh Creek Road.

Public Works Department staff completed the temporary access road design and requested prices for the necessary equipment, services, and supplies to perform the work as expeditiously as possible. The resulting price quotes were received on May 11, 2017.

On May 11, 2017, the Public Works Director signed a construction contract with Granite Rock Company, the firm that provided the lowest pricing for the necessary equipment, services, and supplies to construct the temporary access road, in the amount of $99,800.

The County has entered into agreements with local property owners for the construction of the temporary access road.

It is expected the emergency construction of the access road will begin by early-June 2017 and will be complete by mid-June 2017.

Public Works Department staff completed the road repair design and requested prices for the necessary equipment, services, and supplies to perform the emergency repair project as expeditiously as possible. The resulting price quotes were received on May 23, 2017.

On June 1, 2017, the Public Works Director signed a construction contract with Flatiron West, Inc., the firm that provided the lowest pricing for the necessary equipment, services, and supplies to perform the emergency repair project, in the amount of $2,846,889.00.

On June 6, 2017, the board approved and authorized the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute utility relocation agreement with Contra Costa Water District, and Pacific Gas and Electric in connection with the repairs. The project will include execution of a Project Labor Agreement among Flatiron West, Inc., the Contra Costa Building and Construction Trades Council, and the County.

It is expected the emergency repairs will begin by early-July 2017 and will be completed by November 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Non-concurrence at this point in the project could cause delays in completion of the slide repairs.
