ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALO ALTO
AMENDING THE BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2011 TO PROVIDE
AN ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION OF $2,021,068 TO CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP) PROJECT PE-86070, STREET
MAINTENANCE
The Council of the City of Palo Alto does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. The Council of the City of Palo Alto finds
and determines as follows:
A. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 12 of Article III of
the Charter of the City of Palo Alto, the Council on June 28, 2010
did adopt a budget for fiscal year 2011; and
B. In fiscal year 2011, the City Council appropriated
$3,753,653 for CIP Project Street Maintenance (Project). The
appropriation was spent on repairing highest priority streets
identified in the Pavement Maintenance Management System (PMMS);
and
C. In the coming fiscal year 2012, the City Council will
appropriate other funds for the CIP Project Street Maintenance.
Typically the contract for annual street maintenance project is
awarded in the same fiscal year that the appropriation is
approved. However, staff determined that early funding of street
maintenance project program will potentially result in more
competitive bids and enable resurfacing roadways on school routes
during the summer break while school is not in session; and
'D. The work in this project includes repaving five lane miles
of street which totals 400,000 square feet of new asphalt.
Additionally, the project scope includes more than 9,800 square
feet of concrete road base repair and 4,800 lineal feet of new
curb and gutter. In addition, Greer Road will be receiving
traffic calming measures between North California Avenue and
Oregon Avenue as part of this contract; and
E. The project was put out to bid. Staff has reviewed all bids
submitted and found that the bid totaling $2,106,899 submitted by
O'Grady Paving was the lowest; and
F. City Council authorization is needed to amend the 2011
budget to make available the funds needed for CIP Proj ect PE-
86070, Street Maintenance. Likewise, the proposed appropriation
for fiscal year 2012 will be reduced by the amount of this
ordinance.
SECTION 2. The sum of Two Million Twenty-One Thousand Sixty-
Eight Dollars ($2,021,068) is hereby appropriated to CIP Project
PE-86070, Street Maintenance.
