RECOMMENDATION(S):

CONTINUE the emergency action originally taken by the Board of Supervisors on February 14, 2017, pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050, to repair the Alhambra Valley Road Washout Project, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Pinole area. Project No. 0672-6U6201 (District I)  

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total cost of the project is not expected to exceed $4,000,000. The project will be funded by Local Road Funds (100%). The project is eligible for prorated reimbursement under the state of emergency declared by Governor Brown on January 23, 2017.  

BACKGROUND:

On February 14, 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 Alhambra Valley Road.  



BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
The repair work requires the construction of a new bridge with wingwalls, slope protection and roadway conform work.  
  
Public Works Department staff completed the bridge 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 May 24, 2017, the Public Works Director signed a construction contract with Flatiron West, Inc. to perform the emergency repair work. The emergency repairs began June 12 with completion anticipated by the end of September 2017.  
  
Public Contract Code Section 22050 requires that, for a body that meets weekly, the need to continue the emergency declaration be reviewed at least every 14 days until the local emergency is terminated. Since the conditions that warranted the emergency declaration persist, it is appropriate for the Board to continue the emergency actions regarding the hazardous conditions caused by storm damage.   

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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