Summary Title: Contract Amendment for McGuire Pacific Contractors
Title: Approval of Amendment Number 3 to Contract Number C15157271
with McGuire Pacific Construction to Extend the Term of the Contract for
Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Sign Installation to September 1,
2018 With no Additional Costs
From: City Manager
Lead Department: Planning and Community Environment
Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute
Amendment Three to Contract No. C15157271 with McGuire Pacific Constructors
(Attachment A) to extend the term of the Contract for standard sign installation for the
Downtown Residential Preferential Parking (RPP) program through September 1, 2018,
at no additional cost to the City.
Executive Summary
In March 2015, Council awarded a 12-month contract to McGuire Pacific Constructors
for fabrication and installation of all Downtown RPP signage, and for initiating
underground utilities verification for all proposed signage locations. In February 2016,
Amendment One was executed, which added $154,500 for construction services to
support the expanded boundary of the Downtown RPP district. In June 2016,
Amendment Two was executed, extending the term of the contract through September
1, 2016.
A further extension of the existing signage contract with McGuire Pacific Constructors is
needed to accommodate sign installation as new streets within the “eligibility area”
downtown opt into the program.
Background and Discussion
City Council directed staff to move forward with the implementation of a Residential
Preferential Parking (RPP) program in the Downtown neighborhoods. An expansion of
the program boundary and approval of an eligibility area adjacent to the Downtown RPP
district were later approved by City Council.

Streets within the approved eligibility area are able to opt in through a petition and
survey process, and be approved for the program administratively. The RPP program
requires standard signage to be installed on all streets where parking restrictions have
been adopted. The streets opt in on a rolling basis, requiring signage to be installed
following each request.
Resource Impact
This is an extension of time only, and no tasks are added to this contract. There are
sufficient resources to fund this contract. There is no additional resource impact by
extending the term of the contract through Amendment Three. Staff expects to return
to Council to request additional funds when new Residential Preferential Parking (RPP)
districts are approved and signage installation is required.
Policy Implications
The recommended action is consistent with prior City Council direction to implement
residential preferential parking downtown.
Environmental Review
Approval of an extension of time for an existing contract is not a “project” requiring
review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
